Yesterday I got caught in an awful blizzard on the freeway and thought I was going to die. Then today the weather decided to be beautiful, in the low 70's.
Has anyone in Texas experienced a blizzard this week?? Anyone? Hello? Bueller? Bueller? That's what I thought...

Our New Backyard
We thoroughly enjoyed our bike trip to Utah Lake and very much regretted not making a trip down there sooner! It really is beautiful out by the lake and there is a pretty little trail with plenty of shade that you can walk or bike on to get there. Brad talked to just about every fisherman we came across and is very excited to try out his luck there this summer.
The New Robin Hood Movie
We just got back from seeing the new Robin Hood movie and both really liked it! If you're interested in what I thought of it feel free to read my short review. The gist of my review was that I gave it 4.2/5 stars and definitely think it's worth watching! We went down to the theatre in Spanish Fork to save a few bucks and had a very enjoyable time.

1st Graders and Great Books
I love 1st graders. They are sooo cute! I laugh to myself all the time while I am teaching. (You can't always show you are laughing, it may break their cute little hearts.) Just a few of the funny things that occur day to day:
Also, I LOVE this author/illustrator: Mo Willems Check his stuff out. He has some great stuff for beginning readers... and the books are hilarious. I am reading, "There is a Bird on Your Head" to my class on Tuesday. I also love "Edwina, The Dinosaur Who Didn't Know She Was Extinct." And the pigeon book stories... and Knuffle Bunny.... I guess I just love all of his books.
- One little girl has a pedometer thing. Her family is having a contest to see who can walk the most. So...lately when she is at her desk she is kind of jogging in place while doing her work. It cracks me up.
- I was recently told that the Statue of Liberty was a gift from "a state or something" named Florida.
- For one sweet boy's spotlight the whole class heard a very detailed play by play of his trip to Disneyland. We are talking name of hotel, name of rides, description of rides, food eaten, feelings about the rides and the food.... it was pretty funny.
