Finally .... a BIG snow.

We have had about 8 inches of snow and the kids (and dogs) have enjoyed it.

Girl Scout Cookie Time!!!

Here are three of our girls selling cookies outside of Harris Teeter on Friday afternoon.  They sold 150 boxes in 2 1/2 hours.   I was pleased with how friendly and pleasant the folks were that were coming and going from the store. 

Snow Day!!!

Sort of a real snow for the kids to play in today. 

A New Chapter...

For the past several years I have been volunteering at the kids' school.  I enjoy it and do feel like part of the team but I am so THRILLED beyond words that I have been officially hired (yes - a paid position) at Greensboro Academy to a position that I am going to love.  Subbing was a nice option but this is much for predictable, steady paying and I get to work with all the children as well as teachers.  After interviews with the Principal, Deans (3 of them) and Librarian and about two weeks of waiting, I am the Library Technology Aide at Greensboro Academy and I am very, very proud.  What could be better than being around people you enjoy, doing something you love and be within about 100 feet or less of your kids all day  AND get paid for it?

Honor Roll.......................again.

This has become common practice every 9 weeks but it never gets old!!  Evan at his 5th grade all A Honor Roll assembly.

Evan's first Science Fair Project

Evan has completed his very first ever entry into the school science fair.  He decided to prove the hypothesis that the constant motion of the ocean water and sand is what makes the rocks you find on the beach smooth.   He did a great job.  We helped him glue the stuff on the board but he did everything else.  He's growing up....
