Almost Christmas! 2011

Wow!!! The time has flown so fast. So many changes good and bad! At this point in time, I won't be working at Marsden SS in 2012. I was devastated at first but there are pros and cons to every situation. I will miss many people at Marsden however it will be exciting to meet new teachers, principals and children. Im going to look at it as change for growth. Sometimes plants need to be repotted to blossom and bloom! I think my principal has done me a favour!

I've been working on christmas cards these last few weeks. I've been using my Stampin' Up stamps and loving them!!! Here they are...

Term 3 week 1

Week 1 is over. My students have come back so chatty. It's like they are a different class. Its probably a developmental thing or that they have had no rules for 2 weeks, who knows! All I know is that Im not glad to be back. I really enjoyed my holiday. I wish I was rich enough to be self supportive but like my mum has always said... wish in one hand and spit in the other and see which one gets full the quickest. Hmmm... I guess I need to be proactive to get to the goal I would like. Not sure how Im going to do that though.

Yesterday afternoon we did perspective drawing. They really enjoyed it. We did a road leading to a city with flower beds on the side of the road. They didnt finish so we will work on that next Thursday. I have changed my art day from Friday to Thursday now due to a change of teacher aides. Now that I have a teacher aide on Friday afternoons, I will get her to work with a group of children playing maths games.

Today I have to begin our team's English plan. Oh the joy!
Its a good day for it really... raining and miserable outside so at least I won't feel as if Im missing out on something outside.

Until next time...

Two Cards

During these school holidays I have made these 2 cards. The animals are from Create A Critter and the phrase Happy Birthday is from Birthday Bash.

Card Making

Yesterday I went to my first card making class for a very long time. It was great! The Stampin up Demonstrator was lovely. There were 2 other ladies there and one I knew from years ago at the Dunamis Church. Such a small world. We used the new stamp and punch set, Create a Cupcake.

Home from Alexandra Headlands

Another great holiday! Loved every minute. Lots of relaxing and laughing together with my darling, Brad. Here are some photos.

April Holiday 2011

I love holidays! The one thing I dislike is that my body clock doesn't get that I want to sleep in! So I still wake at the time I should be getting up 5am! Yay, it didnt happen this morning! I actually woke at 6.45am!

We are up at Alexandra Headlands in a little unit. The unit is absolutely awesome and immaculent! We love it, its our second stay here and I think we will be back. Sadly, whenever we come, it rains! It has rained the last 2 days solid and I wake this morning to rain again! We wanted to go the Eumundi Markets but that plan has been washed away!

A few days ago, Brad and I were watching a documentary of the Oasis of the Seas. Its a huge cruise liner. Its the first time I have ever got excited about a holiday overseas! I told Brad that we need to start saving because I really REALLY want to go on it! That is my goal now!!!

Now I need to think of a way to make some money!!!
