Yet another week has went by so fast. It was another busy but fun week. It's hard to believe that our little girl's first nine weeks of school are over. An upcoming birthday party and Christmas are popular subjects at our house right now. The wish list for both occasions seems to grow daily. This is the time of year where the hustle and bustle seems to get greater with each and every passing day. But for now, I'll just reflect on the past week...
Monday I was a substitute at Jr. High...for Special Education. I had declined a few offeres to sub so when they called for the Jr. High I said "yes". Then when they told me it would be for Special Ed, I thought "WHAT HAVE I DONE??!!!" But it turned out to be a good day. It was an English Resource class. Most of the classes only had 3 or 4 students. The class with the most had 6. One class only had one student, and he wasn't there. So it really was a smooth day.
Tuesday morning I subbed in 2nd grade for a lady I've known since I was a little girl. She requested me for her room, which was such an honor. That morning flew by fast, and I was soon home. Then in a couple of hours it was time to go back and get Anna. Anna was so excited about a Sock Hop they had that afternoon in the gym. She said they got to dance and sing.
I had lots of errands planned for Wednesday (since I had worked two days in a row...per Kevin "rough life"). But that all changed when I woke up not feeling so well. I went to bed Tuesday night with a horrible headache and just feeling bad. By Wednesday morning I really felt bad. Kevin even took Anna to school for me. I really think it was just sinus problems. I took a lot of over the counter medicine that day and by Thursday morning I felt better.
Thursday Anna got out of school at 1:15 for Parent Teacher Conferences. She was excited to have a short day and to not have nap time. I took her and Mason to Mimi's house so Kevin and I could go to meet her teacher at 2:45. Her teacher said that she is doing GREAT. She was "Mastery" (the highest possible) in all areas. Her teacher said that sometimes she thinks Anna is bored but that she still behaves well. She said that she can put Anna with any child in the class and Anna will get along well with them. We are so proud of Anna!

Papaw, Grammy, Mason & Anna
Sitting on a forklift at Papaw's workFriday Anna was out of school so the kids and I went to a potluck for Papaw at work. He is retiring (again). He took an early retirement from Emerson about 6 years ago. He has been working at Anchor and has decided to retire for good. Grammy and us surprised him by showing up for his goodbye meal. He was so happy to see us (especially Anna and Mason). After the meal the kids and I went to the mall so the kids could play. They love the mall playground. While playing Katelyn and Mrs. Holly happened to come by, so the girls got to play together...so much fun! Later on we met Daddy and went to Chuck-E-Cheese's to celebrate Anna's wonderful first 9 weeks at school. I really can't tell who enjoys the games the most at CEC...the kids or us.
This morning we went to a Fall Festival at the Middle School. The kids played games and I did some shopping for Bearcat t-shirts and hairbows. We've got to get our Bearcat spirit showing in our clothing. After we got home I finally got to take some Fall photos of the kids. It was a beautiful day for riding the 4-wheeler and taking pictures.
Anna is selling cookie dough for the PTO. The sale ends November 3rd. If you would like to buy some cookie dough for a good cause, call or email me. Anna has already sold the minimum amount to get to attend Cat in the Hat and to get "light up teeth". She is more excited about getting the teeth than seeing Cat in the Hat!

I'm thinking that Kevin looks like he's having just as much if not MORE fun than Mason there at Chuck E Cheese!!! My kids love to go there, too. :)
