Christmas in the warm sunny state of FL

Merry Christmas to all.
I went to the beach yesterday and today.
My husband, Jeep and my daughter home from college are vacationing in FL.
My husband's family lives in FL so we have always spent some time here during my winter break from school.
It was really needed this year since I have some health issues.  Hopefully the relaxed atmosphere and sunshine will help.
Merry Christmas and Happy Joyous New Year and I will be back in 2010.

Christmas Break

Yeah!!!
School is out.  The students have had sugar plums dancing in their heads for two weeks.
Last Thursday we had our annual Christmas program with Kindergarten, First and Third Graders performing.
My first grades sang two songs about Santa and one of my students was dressed as an All American Santa.
We had two performances with packed audience.
Today we worked and then had our party.
They were very pleased with the treats and legos for the classroom. Each was very happy with their big coloring book.  All and all it was great and to see the excitement in the eyes is wonderful for a teacher.
But this teacher is ready for a long winter's nap in sunny Florida!!!!!
I hope to read and do some stitching........
Bring on the sun!

Busy Making advent presents

 I have been busy making daily verses and matching trickets to go along with the verse.
I bought and/or made 25 presents for 15 people!!!!!! Then I wrapped each gift.  It took me four days to wrap and then about a month to look up Bible verse.
I had to have a cat scan today due to some tummy issues my doctor could not figure out.
Luckily it is not cancer.
I will be off from school one more day.
Hopefully the prescription will make me feel better.
All for now.
I am thinking of which project to do next...Noah's Ark from Lynette Anderson or a pillow of another saying.
We see soon.
Grace to you all,
