Elementary Talent Shows Rock!

So I have some catching up to do on the blog, but I figured I might as well start with the most recent event and work my way backward! Stay tuned for more posts!(Hopefully!)

 Friday afternoon I got to do something new and totally fun! One of my students was playing in her Elementary Talent show, and I happened to have that block of time free, so I went to watch her! I had never been in an Elementary school before! I was homeschooled, so obviously I didn't go to school in one. It was really interesting! And very brightly colored :)
 My student has a new baby sister, baby Angel. I was SO excited to get to meet her. She was a preemie and got out of the NICU recently, so I hadn't met her yet! You wouldn't guess she was a preemie by those CHEEKS. But she was born on late Dec, weighing under two pounds. Her due date was I believe a week or two ago! Crazy! She was the sweetest little thing and slept thru most of the talent show.
 So I really didn't know what to expect in terms of talent but I was pleasantly surprised! My favorite act, other than my student of course! Was the opening act with an entire kinder class dancing to a 50's song. they were dressed up in poodle skirts for the girls and t shirts and jeans for the boys and it was the cutest and funniest thing ever!!
 I wish i had gotten a video of it, but at the end they all exited the stage in pairs of three, and the boys would run and then slide on their knees! It was AWESOME!!!

 And lucky lucky me! Miss Angel got fussy right when her twin big brothers were getting done with the show, so that meant I got to save her from her car seat and hold her! She calmed down very fast after I did my patented Rock, Bounce, Pat. And I got in a leg workout :)
 The Star of the show!!!! Miss J did AMAZING! Not one wrong note in the entire song! I was SO SO PROUD OF HER!!!! I don't know how many kids were there but it felt like millions. They filled up all of the bleachers and sat on the ground. Scary for sure! But she played like a pro!!
 Love that silly girl!!



Is it weird that I was excited to get a visitors sticker? ha! It was so much fun!! Best reason ever to get up earlier than normal on a Friday!

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

Blue Monday!

Today's Festive Blue Monday outfit! I wore my tried and true trouser jeans, a short sleeved beaded top I got on clearance at Macy's of all places for 6 bucks!! And my awesome new jeweled flats! Sooo comfy and cute! Since it was in the 60's today I was able to get away with this warmer weather outfit! Beading on the top, I love it! Shoes, so ugly they are cute!!

9/52

So I'm doing my best to get these weekly wrap up's done on Monday each week. Today has been a DOOZY. It's 9 pm and I am just now sitting down to check email and such. So if this post isn't the most well written, you'll understand once you read next week's wrap up about today!  In happier news we started off last week with my BIIIIRRRTTHHHDAAAYYYYY!!! And nothing says your Birthday like watching One Tree Hill and eating a piece of ice cream cake with lunch. Spoiler alert, I had a piece of Ice Cream cake every single day last week.  The chalkboard was updated, but sadly none of my pictures with said chalkboard looked decent.  I rocked my Be-You-Tiful shirt and a new necklace my Mom had given me.  And then I had a little photo session in the piano room with my balloons. Because, it was my birthday. and I was alone. So why not!  This is pretty much me in a nutshell... :)  Normally, I try to get work done before students arrive...
