Science Night 07

Just want to invite all of you who have kids to come out to Lakeview on Thursday night, November 15th at 5:30. My husband and I team up and put on a Family Science Night. His students put together some fun hands on activites for the kids to do and take home and we also have a guy coming to do an awesome Science Show at 5:30 in the new Family Life Center at Lakeview. Here are some more pictures of past Science Nights.

Keetha's Cozy Spot

Ok...so day 2 of conferences got a little out of hand when we messed with Keetha's stuff. It all started when Tim Kline started moving her stuff around everytime she went to the little girl's room or the snack room. If any of you know Keetha she likes her ducks in a row and you better not mess with the rows! She notices even the slightest movements of things. The rest of the pictures tell the story. We love you Keetha and conferences were a little more light hearted because you were there. Thanks for being a good sport...or at least I think you were.

Parent waiting....where's Keetha

Who moved my stuff????

As you can see..she's a little upset that her ducks have been moved.

Acting Busy

Here is Mrs. Rowley trying to act like she had nothing to do with the movement of Keetha's things.

Awaiting Conferences Day 2

It seems Mrs. Swan's classes went well last nine weeks. Not many conferences. Way to go Deven!

The Family

Ok.... so here's the whole gang. This was our fall picture last year. We'll be getting a new one after Thanksgiving. Even our dog Christie is in this pic...she's such a good dog. Too bad I'm not really a pet person.

Well not much to write tonight...I thought I would share this pic from our summer vacation. This dog would jump form one cliff to the other. There's a long story behind it but I'll leave it to your imagination. Think of me tomorrow. I will be at work from 7:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Parent Teacher Conferences!

Crazy Tuesday

Well, its Tuesday and it feels like Friday. How is that happening? This Thursday and Friday are Parent-Teacher Conferences and I'm beginning to feel overwhelmed! I know you are with me on this Keetha. I sure would like to be fishing or reading a book beside this lake. Anybody with me???

Here's Steve reading by the pool not wanting to get sunburned!

Here's Stephen practicing his soccer skills!

Here's Hannah climbing the dunes!

Here is Rachel and Grandpa having a heart to heart along Lake Michigan. I love this picture.

Here is a beautiful scene. It is on the Wisconsin River. We are on a tour and the tour guide is pointing out the dell ahead called "Hawk's Beak". Can you see it? I bet it is very pretty right now with all the leaves changing colors. I love fall!

Vickie's Blogspot

Well I am not sure what to post and not sure if this really works. But here it goes....
