Pop Pop found Jewls on his bed putting on "make-up"...isn't she great!

The annual Turkey Bowl with the Jacksonville II Ward and a few of Nick's friends.

Tutoring is FUN! (and funny!)

He hasn't set the timer since!

Mushrooms anyone?

This big guy showed up in our yard about 3 days after Hanna...I guess mushrooms put on water weight too! I just had to take a picture of it...I thought it was a soft shelled turtle when I first saw it!

Tropical Storm Hanna

I think that was the name of it...I really don't remember...was it Hanna? Anyway, I know this happened a while ago but we didn't have any damage. This big tree limb landed about 2 feet from the truck. We were very glad it missed :) Also, our backdoor doesn't close very well without being finagled a little and around 4:30 in the morning the wind blew it open! The dogs barked so I got up and shut it before too much water got in :)

So...as if I don't have enough going on in my life...Kerriann thought it would be a good time for me to start reading this book. I think she already knew how it would end up, me not sleeping for the past 3 nights because I was so caught up in it!! It really is a good love story even though it's about vampires! I am very into children's literature and this is considered a teen series so I thought I would give it a try. Low and behold I am now in love with the main character :) Hope you guys can borrow a copy and check it out sometime! By the way there are four books in the series.

My "Classroom"

So here is the room I will be working in this year...it's actually a trailer. It is quite empty, but since I will be student teaching in January I didn't want to do too much to it! It works for the kids...they are only in here for 30 mins in the morning and afternoon. I can't believe how stressful the first two weeks have been! Sorry I have neglected the blog!
