The inital blog!

When I first started teaching, I kept funny quotes, anecdotes, events and other items to be included in my book "It Should Have Been a Snow Day!" (With title help from Amy!) Since I haven't been in the classroom in almost three years and those stories started almost ten years ago (gasp!) I doubt the book is going to happen anytime soon. The irony of the title was that I was teaching in South Florida where Hurricane Days, rather than Snow Days were the norm. Now, we live in Northern Michigan where 4-8 inches of snow will fall without anyone batting an eye...let alone a free day from school. Before the thaw began last week, we had almost two feet(yes, feet) of snow on the ground. Local schools were only called off two times the entire season!

This blog will hopefully keep everyone who cares to read, up to date on the latest events from our lives as well as serve as a journal of my little ones.

Enjoy and thanks for visiting!
