Twilight Premier!

Last Thursday night at midnight me, Amy, and Rachelle joined the crazies at the District for the opening showing of Twilight. Thanks to my sister Trish and her friend that rented out an entire theater, we were able to see a lot of crazy fans that were all dressed up ready for a great time. I had parent teacher conferences that night and the next night, so I came to the movie ready for bed. I had already taken a shower and done my hair, and was ready to jump into bed the second I got home. Most of the other girls came ready to pick up a date, or ready to get their picture taken with a cardboard cutout of Edward on the "red carpet" that the movie theater had all ready for the excited girls.
It was a fun girls night, and I had a wonderful time. The movie was not my favorite, but I don't think a movie can ever truly live up to the books. These books have so much great detail in them, and so much emotion that it was hard to feel all the emotion in the movie. I thought the actors did a great job, and the actor that plays Edward is growing on me. He didn' t look like the person I had imagined in my head, but he is totally growing on me.

Thanks girls for making it a fun night out.

My Classroom

It has been a while since I posted pictures of my classroom. Before we went off track we made paper mache globes, and I hung them from the ceiling. They look so good, so I had to post a few pictures of what it looks like currently. I wish I could post pictures of my cute kids, but I can post pictures of the work they do. Enjoy!

Go Utes!

A few weekends ago my mom and dad invited Matt and I to the Utah "Black out" game. It was so much fun! We were freezing cold, but we bundled up with Utah gear (thanks to my husband) and Utah blankets. It was so cool to see all the people at the game dressed in Black. When the Utes won, everyone rushed the field. It was really an exciting game. Thanks mom and dad for the invite! We had a blast!!!

Party Time!

We had such a fun Halloween this year. We had a Halloween party with all of our friends at our house this year. It was my first large get together that I have ever thrown, and I had a great time! Everyone came dressed up and ready to have a blast. We bobbed for apples, had a pinata (spelling?), and played the donut on a string game. It was a blast! Thanks guys for coming. I hope we can do it again next year!

Halloween!!

I have a few things to post about Halloween. I went to my Dad's company party Halloween afternoon. It is always fun to see all the creative costumes that people come up with. I had a blast!

These are my cute nieces, Stella and Sarah. I picked Sarah up from the babysitters and she was so excited to come to a Halloween party! It is so fun to see how excited little kids get!

This is Stella, me, and Susan (Bubbles). I used to work with Susan, and she was the funniest part of the whole party. She really committed to her costume. She didn't talk at all! She just made balloon animals, and used hand gestures to talk. It was hilarious!Tami and Sarah. Tami borrowed my Snow White costume at the last minute. She looked really cute though! She pulls off the princess-thing well! :)

This is my cousin Tiff and Rick and their kids. I loved how they were all matching! They have been planning their costumes for almost a year. What a cute idea!

I had a blast! Thanks for the invite!
