Week in Review.........

Trenton before Trick or Treating:
Devin at school parade:

It was a good, fast week that ended with Halloween and Trick or Treating. We had parties at school on Friday and then came home for a couple of hours and went out door to door. The weather here was absolutely perfect. It was 70 degrees, no wind (in Kansas?) The boys made it for at least over an hour and came home with some heavy bags. They dumped it out on the floor and made a couple of piles: Good, Dad's, & giveaway. LOL.

I finished the baby blanket that I have been working on since Sept. I frogged the border twice. The first time I started with the wrong stitch and the next time it was too tight and made the blanket pucker all the way around. Now I am pleased with the result and will actually give it to the 3rd grade teacher in our building this coming week at her shower.

The pattern is from the 2008 365 Days of Crochet calendar and its Nov. 24th.

One more note, I completed and sold the other shrug and made a tidy little profit.

My first swap package is in the mail...hee,hee,heeeee! This is fun!

I had my second observation/evaluation done yesterday and everything was great. The lesson went like a dream, all the kids were well-behaved, everything worked!
Here is a pic of me and my son on the first day of school! (Kind of late, LOL!)

Back to School

Back to a full day of teaching today! It was tiring, but I think pretty rewarding. the kids seemed happy to see me and eager to participate. I did have good, full lesson plans written out and we kept up a brisk pace.

I've started a couple of projects, but I can't share them yet. They might be going to my swap partner.
