New Haircut

So - once again I felt compelled to chop! My hair.
I was thinking maybe grow it out but... once I got to the hair salon I figured, "Why Not?" right? Winter is coming - perfect time for a short 'do!
Plenty of time to grow it out later!
It feels good. and fun!
Caio!

Happy Birthday to Matthew!

Not a surprise - but still a fun bday party at the house with a few folks!

Puritan Times

This week I had some fun at school - Mr. D was holding his Puritan Court in Social Studies, so I teamed up to help the students write their cases. I also dressed up one day as Anne Bradstreet, and told the students about America's First Published Author... We read the poem "An Author to Her Book" and discussed her situation during Puritan Times. It was an interesting class - some kids knew a lot about what it meant to be Puritan and most classes were pretty active in the discussion - especially since I surprised them with the costume & all.

Anyways, it was fun for ME! :)

Happy Birthday To Me! The BIG ONE

Okay - so for me right now the BIG ONE was 30... check out my sister's site for some pictures of the SURPRISE event - I about jumped out of my SKIN when I opened the door to our house and saw PEOPLE! I thought some burglars had crept in!

Spokane Wedding

What a beautiful weekend for a jet to Spokane, WA for Sarah B. Baumann's wedding on Labor Day! The hotel was GRAND, and the wedding was sweet and elegant. Sarah chose lovely reds and oranges that went perfectly with the fall outdoor pond setting.
Loved the day, the dress, the bride, (and the cake! YUM!)
Blessings to you Jeff & Sarah McMorris!













Oh, and I HIGHLY recommend the Davenport Hotel in the historic section of downtown Spokane. Not only is the lobby breaktaking (see photo), but the rooms are SO comfortable and they give you soft, crumbly delicious peanut brittle every night when they turn down your bed! (If you're nice, they give you an extra helping!). Did I mention that every room has it's own doorbell?
