Birthdays!

This weekend my best friend and her sister had a birthday party for their daughters. The girls are only 13 days apart. They made each one their own little pink birthday cake. As you can see, baby on left is looking at baby on right as if she is crazy!



I made my friend a picture wall hanging for the baby's room:



I made her sister a small picture album:







It was a fun party!

Political Cartoons I love!

It seems whenever I look at political cartoons these days they are definitely left winged. I found these following pics while browsing the net today. Also, not very easy to find. I think they're great!




He he!

Hurricane Ike

About two days ago, we boarded up our windows, nervously bought our supplies and debated if we should stay or go. Now, as we watch, Hurricane Ike has decided to go more north. Phew!



So, the kids and I have had the last two days, Thursday and Friday, off from school. We've been really busy!


For all my peeps in Houston, hold on tight!

Never Eat Soggy Waffles . . .

. . . is what I like to tell my students when teaching the compass rose. North = Never, East = Eat, South = Soggy, and West = Waffles. I found myself thinking of that when I ate my waffle this morning for breakfast. So, if I can use a compass rose to prevent me from eating a soggy waffle, could I use a waffle to show me North, East, South, and West? Things that make you go "HMMMMM!!!!"
