One of my favorite family traditions is when the whole family comes over to my house on Christmas Eve. The house is all decorated and smells yummy from all the baking. Everyone is excited and anxious for Christmas Day. Then later on in the evening, we bundle up and head out to the Candlelight Christmas Eve Services. We sing carols and celebrate the coming of Christmas. Tell me about some of your family traditions around the holidays. What do you do that is special to just your family? It doesn't only have to be around Christmas. Does your family have a special tradition at other times during the year? Pick one of your favorites and write about it. Merry Christmas Everyone!

It's been a while since our last assignment, so it's time to get blogging again.  Thanksgiving is almost here and we will be spending more time with our families, friends, and loved ones.  Read your next assignment because I want to know what you give thanks for. 

I am thankful for my loving family because they always support me.  I am thankful for my job and the awesome students I teach.   Finally, I am thankful for my three pets who give me unconditional joy everyday.  There is nothing better than wet doggie kisses!!! 

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE

Mrs. H

Red Ribbon Week is here, YEAH!!!  I loved seeing everyone today in their ribbons.  I wonder how many people will remember to wear RED tomorrow!  I hope you are all thinking about Friday and the Fall party.  Remember to wear a costume to the party to "Scare Away Drugs."  It is very important to stay healthy and drug free your whole life.  Maybe our next assignment should be to think of ways to stay healthy and drug free forever??  Hmmmm...  Talk to you soon.

Mrs. H

I don't know about you guys, but I am tired!  What a great day we had on the mountain, despite the cold weather.  I am impressed with how everyone did today. I wish all of you could have seen our group at the "MEAT GRINDER!"  Yes, it was as scary as it sounds.  Let's keep that cooperation all year long!  Be ready to blog about our trip this week.   

Mrs. H

Hello everyone, Can you believe it's the end of the first nine weeks? Where has the time gone.  I am so glad each of you are in my class and I've really enjoyed getting to know all of you.  Enjoy your day off Friday and let's start the second nine weeks off with a bang!  :)

Make sure you read your second assignment.  It's been posted.
