"Grandma's" Birthday

The birthday girl is shown enjoying her newest grandson, Harley Cooper Wright... she has four altogether, including Kara, Tim and Lana's brother Mitch's oldest (Katie)...
Grace and I have been taking full advantage of President's Day Weekend, getting caught up on our grading and looking forward to the day off tomorrow!

Lend Me a Tenor

Grace's youngest (in glasses) lit up the stage once again in this musical by Ken Ludwig... here's part of a scene in Act 1:

Spanish Conference Prep

Spanish Conference is a month away... had our parent-student-chaperone meeting at "La Nopalera", a popular Mexican restaurant chain... Fleming Island's first team will have 1 senior, 1 junior, 3 sophomores and 5 freshmen; should give us a core of "veterans" in year two!

Mom and Dad's Anniversary

Tomorrow is the 55th anniversary of the day pictured... the day my parents pledged to love one another till death separated them, and they HAD (for 51 years, 8 days) when "it" did (temporarily) February 19th, 2007...
Such a blessing for those of us who have come as a result of their union!

Where did the first week in February go?

Here it is day 7 of the month posting entry #1... both Grace and I have been sick... not enough to take a day off from work, mind you, but plenty to have us collapsing after a full day of teaching :-)

Last Day in January

Terrible picture, but part of the Math team Grace and I took to this year's Mu Alpha Theta competition last Saturday in Gainesville... they're some pretty sharp 7th-8th graders, especially since they had her for a teacher in 6th grade!

Did make for a short weekend, but we did note yesterday that there were exactly 20 weeks till our wedding date... Fathers' Day 2011!
