The.best.husband.ever.

This week I came down with the flu and am finally getting over it...anyways, on Thursday, Andrew said he had to go uptown and do something...he came back a half hour later with a bouquet of flowers and set them by the bed stand so I could see them right away. How sweet is life! :)

December Happenings

We cut our Christmas tree at my parents farm a couple of weeks ago. I like the real trees that we would have each year for Christmas growing up. This is my first year of having my "own."
We brought it in and set it in the stand and then let it air out over night before we decorated it.


School is coming to a close for the semester. Only 4 days to go this week and then we are at Christmas break. This also marks the end of the second quarter, so then we are half way done with the school year. We have been making art projects for the season. Here we made snowmen.
Andrew has been working with his team of horses. They are making good progress. Today he hooked a wagon up to them and they are able to pull it with out being scared.

Our house with the lights on. Andrew hung a bunch of lights this year, so it looks nice and bright when you come down the street toward our house.

melt.my.heart.

Last week, on Friday before I left school, one of my fourth grade students came to me with a note that she had written. She waited until all of the other kids had left and then said that she had a note for me. She said that she spent the night before lying on the carpet in her room thinking about me, so she wrote it down!The letter told about how she loves math (the subject that I teach her) and the social studies book that we are working on.
Gotta love how the letter ended. The next day in school she told me that she loved me! Precious! :)
