Last Two Weeks Before School Starts

8/13/14  The first week of in-service at Frenship ISD was lots of fun.  We had meetings at Central Office for math, time to work in our rooms, meetings at our campus,  a Group Selfie Scavenger Hunt to get our iPad minis that included us running through Central Office to take a pic with the Superintendent's secretary, and invading Best Buy :)

8/15/14 Frenship Elementary Employees Night at Lubbock Water Rampage.  Mr. Garza cooked some awesome hotdogs and we had fun in the water.  Emerson and Jacen playing :)

The Lazy River which was their favorite part.  I went in too and even went down a water slide, but there were no pics of me in the water.

Michelle and I :)

8/16/14 We volunteered one more time at St. Mark's Baptist Church and helped serve food.  Jacen got to go with us this time :)  One of the pastors there had a birthday as well!

8/20/14 Kyle received a Peyton Manning signed helmet from Wiley and Janelle for helping them sell their house since they had to move before they were able to put their house on the market.   Kyle was excited!!!

8/21/14 Next to the last day at Ripley's.  Also, that night we had meet the teacher night at Bennett where he met his teacher Mrs. Aimee Dowgar and her student teacher.  Jacen said they were really nice, and he is excited to go to Kindergarten.  Mommy fail, I was in my room meeting lots of fabulous Bennett 5th graders, so I forgot to tell Kyle to take pics.  Oops :(

8/21/14 Our faculty took our group pic at Lubbock Water Rampage by the new kid part with the ship because our theme this year is Sailing to Success.  We snapped a pic of  our awesome 5th grade team afterwards.  Mrs. Cooley, Mr. Garza, Mrs. Crume, Me, and Mrs. Allison.  I promised I wouldn't post the pic on Facebook, so I posted in on the blog instead :)

8/22/14 Pics from his last day at Ripley Do-Da's.  We have been so impressed who the whole staff.  They are wonderful people, and he had a great experience with teacher, friends, fun, and learning.  We will miss everyone there!!!!!

Summer Break Week 10

8-4-14  One of the items in Jacen's bag from the library was a bouncy ball with streamers.  He loves it and was jumping around with it!!  Sorry the pic is kind of blurry :(

He told us he was creating a an obstacle course with his toys :)

8-5-14 While going to the Day's house to pick up a gift from Shaylie that she bought Jacen in Africa, Shaylie and Jacen played swords :)  I forgot to take a pic of her giving him the gift.  Oops!  Thanks Shaylie!!!

8-6-14 Lunch date at Canes with Laura and Jessica :)

8-7-14  There are not many pics this week because I had training Monday and the rest of the week was spent running errands and working in my classroom.  Jacen of course made himself at home at Bennett.  He couldn't find me, so he made a friend and was hanging out with them all over the school.  He even turned his transfer paper into the office all by himself.  In addtion, he made friends with the PPCD teacher's kids and spent a couple of hours in her room.  I didn't really take any pics of him while we were there.  Oops!  Here are classroom pics though :)  Thanks Lisa Day for your help!  You are awesome!!!

8-9-14 Grandma came to his rescue :)   She spent the weekend with us, so Kyle and I could volunteer for Foster Parent Night Out and have a date the next day :)
