A Year in Photos ::January 12

I've been working on this at nap time on and off for a couple of months, and I've finished up my other projects and thought I'd come back to this one. It's a seed stitch scarf done in Koigu wool.

Overall, I had a good day in the classroom with my munchkins. I put some new stuff up on the walls, which always gets them excited. It makes it look more like the classrooms of their older siblings. I'm looking forward to a good, and very cold week, at school.

When I finished tutoring today, I made the short drive to Old Navy to look around. After just a few minutes in the store, I walked out with an $80 coat for just $4.80. I was stoked!! It's a super cute swing jacket in a winter white (think Audrey Hepburn). As soon as I have good lighting (i.e. tomorrow), I will take a picture to post.

I'm also thinking about moving A Year of Photos over to my other blog. My in-laws have dial-up, and all the pictures make it impossible for them to view my blog. So, if you don't see the picture here tomorrow, check the other site.

Yes, this is a pirate. They are all over town. The whole city is Pirate-crazy. There's just no escaping them.

A Great Wednesday

It was truly a blustery day in North Carolina today. At one point, every raindrop in the sky was falling as fast as it could. Big splaty drops. I turned the lights out, and we stood at the window and watched the rain fall. All of that rain disappeared and turned to sun about an hour later (just in time for nap time). I did some knitting, as usual, during nap time. I'm working on a baby afghan for my assistant teacher. Here's the progress so far.

I'm almost finished with it, so hopefully tomorrow I'll get it done.



Here's my photo for AYOP:

Start to another great week

I got a new student today. It's an interesting way to start the week, but a good one. I made these Memory Cards a couple of weeks ago and just got them them laminated today. They turned out great!

A Year in Photos

From our trip to ECU yesterday.

Blair and I have taken on yet another responsibility...because we needed another one...We started teaching 3rd and 4th grade Sunday School today. We have a really fun group, and I think it's going to be a great semester with these kids!

January 3...A Year of Photos and Something NEW!

Blair and I had a date of sorts today. We went to the ECU campus so I could take photos. While roaming around the campus I had an idea. Why not take my year of photos and develop the idea a little more? So, I started a new blog, which you can find here. This blog is for photos only, and I intend to have different themes for the photos to fall under. It's an experiment for now, and one that I'm very excited about. I hope all of you will add it to your blog lists and follow along as I try something new.

January 2...A year of Photos

A New Year, New Photos

This year, I would like to post a picture day on my blog. Nature, life, the good, and the not-so-good. These photos will be completely candid and completely untouched. I'm not sure I will stick to a picture a day every day, however, I will do my best to post as often as I can.

Today's picture is taken from my porch and is my first nature photo of the year. Nature photos are some of my favorite to take, so you will see many of them this year. Many will probably come from my classroom adventures as well. I have updated my Flickr page today with photos from Christmas and today.

I hope all of you have a wonderful 2009 full of new experiences and good times.
