I hope you all have a great Christmas and enjoy your friends and family. We are missing our family this Christmas for the first time. Joe is working over the holidays. We're happy he has a job and is at home with us for the holidays.
I got two more As on my last classes. Wahoo! I'm done! :) At least I think I'm done. I haven't heard that I need to do anything else. I'll take it. :)

Merry Christmas!
'Tis the Season! :) I love this time of year. I love celebrating the birth of our Savior and worshiping him through singing Christmas Carols. I love Christmas Carols!
This year is going to be hard because we're not going home for Christmas this year. Joe has to work, and might even work on Christmas day. :( So we might have to rearrange some things.
I am looking forward to spending time with the girls over the break. We are going to do crafts and visit with friends. :) It should be a fun two weeks. :)
I hope you all have a great Christmas. I love you all!

Happy Thanksgiving!
I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving! Faith is downstairs sleeping on the couch in front of the TV. After all, that is one of the things thanksgiving is about. :) Jamie is playing on the computer playing Sims. Joe just got off of the phone with his mom. (Hi ma!) I am up here in the bedroom doing homework. Fun! Fun!
Do not fear though, the turkey is in the oven, the jello is in the fridge. And the rest of our dinner can't be prepared until 5:00. So we're all set. No more eating until dinner is ready. :)
One week and a few days until my Master's work will be done! :) I am excited and nervous about getting all of my work done. But luckily I'm a substitute teacher and can take next week off to study. :)

I know it is strange...
I know it is strange, but we were so excited to go to WalMart today! There are no WalMarts around here! URG! So we drove to Woodburn to go to WalMart. We didn't buy an exorbitant amount of things. We just really missed WalMart so we went. And since we had to drive so far away, we couldn't buy groceries there that would spoil or melt.
I have two cute pairs of boots and not skits to wear with them, right now. So I went out this evening on my own and bought two cute skirts, two shirts, and a pair of jammies. :) It was fun to get out and go shopping. I only wish I had a girlfriend to go with me.

Staying Busy
I've been staying busy subbing. I didn't think I would be quite so busy. I've been to 1/2 of the elementary schools in the district, all but one of the middle schools and one high school. I just got signed up for the girls' school, so hopefully I'll be subbing there soon. I would love to sub there most if not all of the time.
I subbed in a classroom that is the same as my old classroom, with the very special ed. It was fun. Of course, there was none of the paper work, meetings or politics. But it made me miss my old job and hope that I can work with those very special students once more.
The girls are busy with school. Jamie is taking an art class once a week. And Faith is coming with me to homework club. I tutor two students during homework club and help other students when I can.

Coming soon!
I am going to have the girls try on their costumes for Halloween. I'll take pictures and have them up here today or tomorrow. :) No worries.
In the meantime, and update on the family. Jamie is doing wonderfully in school. I couldn't ask for a better students. She's thriving at Quatama. Faith is getting a lot of help at school and I look forward to seeing her grow this year. She has started to play the recorder and loves it. Maybe I can get her to play the flute. Speaking of music, Jamie has started with piano lessons again. She loves it, and so far her teacher seems like a great teacher.
Joe is working those wacked out shifts still. It is crazy! He is working around the clock shifts and only 3 or 4 of one shift before he switches to anther shift. Poor guy. Thank heavens to Niquil.
I am working 2-4 days a week as a sub. It is challenging and interesting all at the same time. Middle schoolers like to push buttons and see how far they can push their sub. But the elementary students are gems. I love subbing for the elementary kids. My Master's program is wrapping up. I'm so excited to be almost finished with it. We're going to party here in December, that is for sure! :) Graduation isn't until May though. So we'll have a big party at our house in Meridian then. It is empty so there is plenty of space for anyone to sleep if they want to come to my graduation. :)
