This week....

My first full week with kiddos has gone well  :)  I'm quite thankful and blessed.  I have a fantastic team to work with and plan with who make my life sooooo much less stressful.   Also, my kiddos are pretty good too.  I teach four sections of regular Pre-Algebra and two sections of Pre-AP Algebra 1.  The most challenging part right now is kids bouncing from class to class.  LOTS of schedule changes have happened throughout this week which pull kids in and out of class.  This means I've got kids leaving and new kids coming in that need to be caught up to speed daily.  Oh well, I think I'm coping pretty well.  My school provided website is proving very helpful as I direct most kids there to get caught up.  

Matt is also having a pretty good week  :)  He was under a lot of pressure last week and this week is definitely a needed break.  The people he works with are nice and he enjoys it there--what more can you ask for?


This weekend we're planning to RELAX!  I'm going shopping with some girlfriends and Matt will probably play some video games with the guys.  We're looking forwards to no set schedule and lots of yummy food  :)  Speaking of yummy food, we have a new addiction to the local Farmers Market.  They have the BEST food!  Hands down.  We've enjoyed tomatoes, cucumbers, peaches, pork sausage, and ground beef so far.  Everything tastes incredible!  Also, we like knowing that we are supporting humane and healthy whole food practices.  Yep...we're kind of hippy  :)  And we definitely recommend watching Food, Inc. if you haven't yet.  It's a movie that might just change your life.


Alright...I guess that's about it for now.  Have a blessed weekend!
