I had a surprise going away party for the Pearsons and we spazzed out and didn't take pictures of the people who came so...the only reminder left over the next morning was this sign...and Kayla wanted a picture of it!!!

Kayla and Russ
This is my neighbor and best friend Kayla
with her husband Russ...
They are moving to Utah on the 9th of August.
This is what it looks like when your husband is already in Utah and you have been packing for months
while trying to fight cancer with radiation treatments.

Kayla, JoAnn, Marianne, & Me
Thank goodness Kayla felt up to going to lunch with us today. We had an awesome visit and many good laughs.

Thanks Cravings and Tiffany Millett our waitress

I will miss you Kayla:(

Come visit soon.

TODAY WAS THE SADDEST DAY SINCE SUMMER BEGAN
....I WENT BACK TO WORK
SO HERE'S MY BACK TO SCHOOL/WORK PIX...
I JUST KNEW YOU ALL WOULD WANT TO SEE ME...
I CHANGED SO MUCH OVER THE SUMMER!
So, I got a phone call Tuesday (7/28) from my Principal (Tammy). She just wanted me to know that the computers from my computer lab were removed to make room for another 5th grade classroom...
Needless to say I wasn't happy. I will be "visiting" the classrooms to present my "Orchard" program that is a program that should individually based with each student having their own computer.
It is going to be interesting to say the least, but Tammy promised me lots of help!?!
Any ideas for K-6th grade lessons that would last 20-50 minutes please send them my way.
