Busy...Busy!

After Christmas break it seems like I have had to hit the ground running! We have had the majority of our snow in January. As I have previously mentioned there are no snow days in my district, they don't believe in them ;) What this means for the teachers is that when it is too cold & snowy outside for them to have recess the kids get to stay inside in the classroom & play. I still get to leave for part of the time, but it makes a big difference trying to teach kids that have had fresh air & exercise compared to children that have been trapped inside all day. It was exhausting trying to get much done with them for about half of January! Thankfully now the weather seems to be in my favor and is warming up and the sun is shining again :) Feburary is going to be a busy month at work we have Groundhog's Day, 100th Day of School (yes I have made it in one piece! :), Valentine's Party, and multiple district meetings that I need substitues for.


Adam is still working away at Petsmart & we are slowly building a zoo here...hehe. We have 2 cute little guniea pigs that have recently become a part of the fam. We are at 1 dog, 2 guniea pigs, 3 firebelly toads, and 3 gerbils. We said we are done that we won't be adopting anymore animals. We both love animals & they are hard to resist! Adam has also decided that he will be going to Weber State in the fall. The online classes are expensive & more difficult than a 100 level class should be. He is going to take full-time classes & work towards his degree quickly. Hopefully, with my pay increase next year he won't have to work part time to help pay the bills & he can concentrate fully on school.



So, with everything going on around here we haven't gone anywhere or done much Utah exploring. We did go on a movie date a couple weeks ago to see the Blind Side (amazing movie if you haven't seen it...GO!)
