My Turn

I FINALLY got my comment posted
on Rosie's blog.
She does this Ask a Question thing.
Her latest question was about your favorite teacher:

kari Writes:

Mrs. Nichols was my 6th grade teacher. She just connected with us kids. She was funny, cool, smart and expected a LOT from us. Might be why I decided to become a 6th grade teacher myself.

I've been responding to this blog, on and off, for almost a year.
My turn today!

Dentist Sketch - The Carol Burnett Show

Harvey Korman was a HUGE part of my growing up!
I always waited to see Tim Conway crack him up!
This was one of my favorite sketches!
Today the world lost a FUNNY MAN!!

Chloe's Pops Concert

Last week we went to Chloe's Pop's Concert at school.
It was a great concert...even if it DID last 2 hours. (-:
The choirs were amazing, and they sang great music!
My parents showed up too. We met them before the
concert at Harry's. (Which charges a dollar for a side
of ranch!)
Great job Chloe!
It was so fun to watch you sing!

A New Job

Ryan started his FIRST job this past week.
He is working at the McDonald's by our house.
They hired him right before Memorial Day weekend,
and then worked him EVERY DAY!!!
Regardless, he is enjoying the job,
and is looking forward to the money!
Way to go Ryan!

Summer Begins

We were at Kate (Angela's boss's house) over the weekend for a surprise 60th birthday party!
The pool was in the mid 80's, and the kids were in the whole time.
And so the summer begins.

Kids growing up!

Chloe is off today...
she is doing 16 year old things.
She is at graduation parties, and sleepovers
and running errands.
It's so weird when your kids grow up!
It's so awesome...and scary at the same time.

We went out with Mike and Jolyne last night
whose son had just gotten his license that day.
Quentin turned 16 and passed his test.
He took off to a birthday party and drove himself.
Mike and Jolyne were nervous...but did very well.
They weren't overly nervous!

Ryan also passed his drivers test yesterday. He had a CRABBY, frightening
test proctor. BUT...either way....he passed!
It was a big day for drivers.

Let the weekend begin!!
Take the link on the side and check out the blog I made for my students!
