Fall Break

I'm so glad that it's Fall Break.  I need some time to relax and plan some fun stuff for my students to do.  I'm going to try and go see Moneyball and of course, watch the World Series.  Thank you Fall Break for showing up at the perfect time.   

Godzilla is invading my little happy town.  

It's Tuesday

Why can't it be Friday?  I can't wait until this weekend.   Harrison is running in regionals and the twins have a hockey tournanent in Louisville. 
Harrison's birthday is on Thursday. He will be 15.  He wants an iphone.  Nothing else.  He has made this crystal clear.
Today was a little crazy at school.  I walked into the office at around noon and it was packed!  Must be a full moon, I thought.  I checked the schedule and sure enough, full moon tomorrow!

Walking

Did you know that today is International Walk to School day?  This is a big deal at my twin's school.  My boys did not get to walk to school last year, so I surprised them this year by taking the morning off and walking them to school.  They were so excited.  Hayden took off and left us.  I think he got to school about 10 minutes before Henry and I did.

Sunday Softball

My team played this team called the Cereal Killers.  I'll give them a 4 for the creative name, but a 2 for their softball playing abilities.  They had a weird cheer about the blood in the ground, that makes the grass grow, blah, blah, blah, kill, kill, kill.  I was on the mound getting ready to pitch when they started screaming this cheer.  It kinda freaked me out a little.

The funniest part of the day came when I was on the phone with Leeway.  My team was taking the field and I said, "I gotta go pitch!" I hung up the phone quickly and my team flipped out on me.  They thought I said, "I gotta go BITCH!"  

So, when we came off of the field, I called her back to make sure she had heard me correctly.  She got a good laugh out of the whole thing and then I said, "ok, now I have to go HIT!"  She said, "ok, go hit, BITCH!"

and then it was my turn to laugh....
