Summer Mummers

This is before all of the craziness got started!
Me and Sarah - Chris was throwing popcorn at us while Shane was taking the picture!

This was a favorite act for me and Sarah!


The hats on our head are our popcorn bags! It was hard to dig popcorn kernels out of my hair!
Andrew and I had quite a treat last night! We headed over to Midland to go to Summer Mummers with Shane and Sarah. I also got to meet some other friends of theirs, Callie and Chris. We had such a fun time! A lot of it is setup as a funny play. Then at the end they do a bunch of different funny acts with music. The entire time you get to throw popcorn at each other. I REALLY liked this part. There was a lady in front of us that I picked on...just a little! Andrew called me an instigator! She made the mistake of getting irritated! I pelted her all night long with popcorn. The funny part was she thought it was Shane and Chris the whole time and would turn around and throw popcorn at them! Fun times! Thanks for inviting us, Shane and Sarah!

Partying Hard

Shara and Addison at my birthday party - How cute are they?!?
What a fun week! I had SUCH a terrific birthday! I woke up to a dozen roses, chocolates, and a sweet card from my fabulous husband. Mandy brought cookies for me and my entire class. A parent brought donuts for my entire class. I had lots of fun presents from my kids and even flowers delivered! I got to have lunch with my husband. My kids were fantastic all day! Ms. Reber decided to have my entire class over to her room and we did a fun little dance for my birthday. HA HA!! Andrew got off work in time to get to go to dinner with my family and Shara, Addison, and Miranda. All of my family came over for my party along with Shara and her girls. Holly and her family came over as well. What a terrific day! Everything went great, but then Andrew had to go back to work a little after 9. They had a pretty big problem occur and he didn't get home until 3:15 AM!! He is one sleepy boy now. Now we are looking forward to this weekend. We are going over to Midland to see Summer Mummers with Sarah and Shane! Should be fun:)!

Andrew's Birthday Party

Andrew unwrapping his presents! He got some great stuff!
So I was a BAD wife and forgot to buy birthday candles! We had to improvise and use a good ole Circle E candle! Ooops! I'll do better next year!

Everyone hanging out and chatting.

Andrew's real birthday is on the 20th, but we got to celebrate on the 22 with our family. We were thrilled his parents were able to come over from Odessa. Andrew's favorite meal is lasagna, so I made it and we had everyone over for an early dinner. He also looooves his mom's cheesecake, so she brought 3 over! They were delicious! Thanks everyone! We had such a great time!

Before & After

Once we returned from the Watts' Family Reunion it was time to put it in high gear getting ready for school to start. This is what my classroom looked like when I started...
And this is it now! It was tons and tons of work, but it finally all came together in the end. It seemed like I didn't see Andrew for a week! I have 23 kids and they are SOOO sweet! I LOVE my class!

Kamden is in 4th grade now too! He is next door in Ms. Reber's class and LOVES her! This is him working very hard on a flower art project. Here's a funny for ya....We do planners in 4th grade and he wrote in his planner for homework, "2 Work Shits." (It should have said...2 worksheets.)LOL That's what he thinks about Ms. Reber's homework:)! HA HA!!

Dinner and a Murder

Our wedding gift to Kari and Chris. It's like the one we have!

Kari - the bachelorette! She won cutest outfit:)!
Kari's cake - it was delicious!

Lots of confronting going one while we were playing our parts. I see Kinzie and Porsche confronting each other in the background, just as they did most of the night:). Great actresses!

I confess! I was the murderer!

Our stripper...Christy's husband showed up to play a little joke. Very funny!
This weekend I headed to Albuquerque for Kari's bachelorette party! The theme was dinner and a murder. It was really like playing Clue, but acting it all oout. We each were assigned a character and given their background. We assumed their roles and the confrontations began! I played Kari's mother and found a murder weapon and killed her maid of honor and got away with it. It was a great night with MANY laughs. Thanks so much, ladies!
