Mark had to work late again tonight.  We met him for dinner so we could see him a little.

Why I need Thanksgiving Break (and why I'll be drinking!)

This is what I wrote on my board this morning:  (Please note that each day I have information like this on the board.)



Question 1: Do we have a test today?
Comment 1:  I don't understand the quote today.
Comment 2: I don't have a calculator

It is at this point that Mark tells me I need to teach them to count change.  Some days I think he might be on to something.

Tonight we celebrated my mom's birthday, but I couldn't pass on this one as the picture of the day!

It appears that some one else appreciates the early arrival of the Christmas lights as much as I do!

I was cooking dinner.  The girls came out of Emily's room to show me this.  It was so wrong on so many levels that I didn't have words to say anything.  (Except for take a picture of course!)


Emily went to Wonderscope today.  That atleast explains the face paint.

Mark needed more than one of these to get through the KU game tonight!

When you leave town and forget about work, there is lots of grading when you return!  UGH!

I decided to celebrate the girls 1/2 birthdays today...not sure why, but seemed like a fun idea.  The girls were pumped to get some batter from the birthday cake.

We finally got rain!  Not just a sprinkle, but real rain!

We've started doing homework in the basement.  It took me a while to put together, but she was really having trouble at the kitchen table because it was too big for her.  Turns out we have had MUCH more success at a table her size!
