Festival of Trees

K so my little pocket camera broke and I am having huge withdrawls. I need it all the time!! Anyways, I went out on a date yesterday to the Festival of Trees. It was pretty amazing. I can't believe how much is put into making those things. The one tree that was the big attractions was this tree that was made entirely out of blown glass. It was kind of amazing, but looked a little like something that should be in a Dr. Seuss book. Unfortunately, I don't have any pics of the night because of my stupid camera. I hope it gets fixed soon. Anyways, I had a ton of fun. Good times on random dates!!

Christmas Around the World



So Friday I went with all the 6th grade classes to Christmas Around the World. It's at the BYU Marriot Center and the BYU Folk Dancers put it together. Of course I make all my students dress up in their Sunday best. It is seriously my favorite day. My kids usually act a little better because they are in nice clothes and my class is already a little crazy so... it makes for a great day!! It was an eventful day to say the least. Several things happened this day that was not my favorite but tomorrow is another day. Here is a little pic of them looking so adorable and then of course we always have to have a funny pic.

Oh geez I forgot to mention that one of my little darlings was goofing around on the bus and kind of dislocated the tip of his finger and couldn't put it right again. Luckily, he said it didn't hurt and it didn't look broken. But me, being the mean teacher that I am made him sit up front by me the rest of the way. Also, can I say, Thank goodness for parent volunteers. They make field trips so much easier, and likable.
