Class Quilt

Last night was the first night in our Creative Activities class.  I always dislike the necessary but BORING step of going over the syllabus - that part is never fun...  Much needed rain prevented us from going outside to break up the night with 'get-to-know-you' activities.  We did complete a class quilt showing alikes and differences.

This semester looks to be quite exciting! A fun group of students!!  - Long live Fred the Moose!

The New Year Begins

I have enjoyed the brief break from school by visting with four of our six children and three of our grandbabies.  (We were fortunate to be able to see another child and our other two grandbabies over the Thanksgiving holiday!)

I leave for an intense weekend in Dallas for the program I am a student in and will hit the ground running when I return home, as Creative Activities begins, this time on a Monday.  Emergent Litracy (lecture and practium courses) begin in Febuary and Active Learning and Play in April.

This is the time of year my husband and I do not get to spend a lot of time together, as he teaches, as well.  We try to make the most of our time off - usually by catching up on shows, renting a movie and being in the same room together as we grade papers.  (At least he is not teaching an online class this semester, that was time consuming, to say the least...)
