Zoo weather...

Today, the 29th of December, we got to go to the zoo. We had light jackets on and it was just absolutely perfect weather! I am so glad that God blessed us with this weather today. We were really able to have a wonderful time seeing God's beautiful creations, playing with friends and for me getting to visit with another mom! :)

Here are a few pictures...

Teacher gifts...

I have really enjoyed being the mother of a student this year! It has been fun getting to know Ian's teachers and just seeing how much Ian has learned and grown since starting school has been great.

With it being Christmas time I wanted to get the teachers a gift that they would actually like and be able to use. Not something that would be re-gifted as a dirty Santa gift. So we got his two main teachers gift certificates to a salon and spa place and the sub teacher some lotion and chocolates.

I did, however want to have Ian be a part of the gift. So instead of him making something or picking something out I did an interview with him about his teachers! It was so fun doing the interview. His answers were great. Then I had him put his hand print on them. You know the teachers may not keep it but I know they got a kick out of his answers too and really making them smile was the whole point!

Wow, I have gone a long time...

I just realized it has been a while since I have posted anything on here! I want to say that nothing much is going on around here, but I don't think that would be true. I am an early shopper so I have been ready for Christmas for a while now! I actually wish this week would go by fast because I love...LOVE...to watch people open there presents! As I have mentioned before, my love language is gifts, so seriously love to see the joy they bring people! Also, I haven't seen my Brother and his family for a while, so I am looking forward to seeing them!

I guess I will just post a few pictures of the past few weeks. I can't think of much else to write! Catch me on my weight loss blog if you get a chance.
