Ode to Shalyce

This is my niece. Her name is Shalyce.



She had a birthday and ate lots of geese. Note the stomach.

LOVE YOU SHALYCE!!! HERE IS THE UPDATE YOU REQUESTED. I am now hopping on to yours to check out your latest. Hope it's a tummy pic like I requested! :)

Is that what I think it is?


So today we had 5 classes of first graders out at recess. All of the sudden, a skunk comes running around the corner from the front of the school, along the edge of the playground and behind a portable, which had some of our kids on the other side. What would a first grader do if a skunk came racing toward them?


I have a possible idea.




I also know that it is a hilarious site to see 5 teachers running the other way trying to round up 100+ kids in a matter of seconds.

Oh, the joys of teaching.

This was more fun than the bull snake that came up out of the sand on the kindergarten playground in Arizona.

-10%

For those of you who may not have read my earlier post, I am in a somewhat competitive group of losers, weight loss that is. We all have 12 weeks to loose 10% of our weight. If we are able to do this and maintain the loss as of October 6, we get part of the pot. (It's not gambling when it is for a good cause, right? :)) Today was the wonderful day that the scale screamed back at me that I reached that goal!!!!!! YEA!!

I still have some Brody weight left but feel so much better. Thanks for the boost Mama Cass! Couldn't have done it without ya!
