Happy Birthday!
Once again, playing with the PicGrid app. Happy Birthday to my mom...an amazing woman!! Love you!

I had some fun with the 1st grade team at lunch today.

It's Monday

Well, went to get in the elevator this morning and it isn't working...something about not passing inspection. I'm not worried about myself...just my computers with all those little bodies carrying them up and down stairs.

Today started a busy week of working with 3rd graders on their life cycle animation project.

Too Many Pics?
Well, we woke up to snow this morning so I had to use a warm-weathered pic for TBT...Renee and I out in the wheat field during harvest. Loved my knee highs even back then!

Had to share one of the 4th grade creations from our claymation project.

The snow continued throughout the day. When I got in my car to come home I first noticed the rain on the windshield, then on my sunroof...went with the sunroof for the pic.

Morning View
I've spent years out on the CSE playground. Something today just caught my eye.

Had the worst round of golf at Red Hawk ever tonight...could not focus!

Busy Day

The 3rd graders got a shipment of cabbages today...brought me back to my days of Cabbage Patch Kids.

Erin got a brand new container of Red Vines today...YUM!!!

Finally, ended the evening with golf league at Red Hawk. The weather was a little better, but not by much. We had a few distractions during our round.

Back to School
Well, for a Monday and the first day back after Spring Break, it was a pretty good day. Ended up with a Cadbury Chocolate Oreo treat from my friend who went to Europe. I also got a yummy coffee from my Sneaky Bison!

Long Day

We had parent-teacher conferences today...makes for a long day! Did manage to have a little fun. You never know what you might find at an elementary school. This is the milk-jug igloo that has been built.

Did enjoy a little nightcap when I got home. :) Might be needing a new glass though.

Great Monday!
Started off the day with a basket of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups from my Sneaky Bison.

In the afternoon I got to go on a walk with some 1st grade girls. We had a great time!

Faux Pi Day
Tomorrow is Pi Day, so we celebrated at work today with what else??? Pies!! Made my first lemon meringue...turned out yummy!!

Also had a little fun at lunch with Erin's new poster in the lounge. :)

Busy Day
This morning we woke up to perfect, untouched snow outside. 
















Today I was finished getting all of our devices ready for PARCC testing that begins Monday.

Finally, I spent an hour at the local Lost Coffee with the students from our 1st/2nd Combo class. They have been learning about various artists and recreated a famous drawing from each one. They recorded a video reflection and we used the Aurasma App to integrate the video and art work. It was a great night and fun to see how excited they were.

What...Oreos???
I catch some crap at school about Oreos...was recently told that I have an "Oreo Fetish." The funny thing is, everyone seems to really enjoy that fetish when I bring them Oreo Truffles!!

Birthday Treats
There are some days you give a little silent cheer when the birthday treats don't stop in your classroom. Then there are those days that you are so very glad they did!

Cookie Butter
Went up to the teacher's lounge for lunch and came across this tasty pair!

Geocaching
Had a GREAT morning geocaching with the third grade students at CSE. Looking forward to working with the rest of the classes tomorrow!

Friday Treats
The 1st grade team had Friday Treats this month. In addition to the Oreos, a "Deflate Gate" cake managed to make an appearance. Sunday's game will be that...just another game. :(

Friends
Had a great night with the gals from work at Sienna. Had a yummy martini!

Sun, Birthday & Broncos
We had another absolutely AMAZING day...great weather!

I had to take a pic for my dad's birthday!

Finally, the star was lit up in a variety of colors this evening...photographed the Bronco orange and blue.

Snow
There was GREAT snow this morning. I wanted to just hang out in it...or take photos...but had to go to work. Lots of people loved today's snow!

Funny story from school today...a class of Kindergarten students came into the lab for their standardized testing. I was in there working at my desk and just a few minutes after they came in, I hear one little boy say, "These headphones are going to mess up my mohawk." Loved it!

Love - Hate
Was on par for a "no sugar" day and then my fabulous Sneaky Bison left this on my desk...crap!!! You leave either of these two things anywhere for me and I'm hooked!

Frozen Playground
Today was a cold, foggy, icy day. While on playground duty before school you could feel the fog on your eyes. I also got a cool pic of the infinity circle.
