Hair Bows


So my friend taught me how to do these little bows one night. I went home not thinking that I wouldn't be able to make them, but it really wasn't that hard. I was going to leave them plain without all the bling but once Aubrey saw me trying to see if the jewel would look good she told be to put something on each one. These crafts are pretty fun to do and it is something that Aubrey and I can do together.

Halloween Costumes

We had the kids pick out there costumes the other day. It wasn't a surprise what they wanted to be. Corbin is especially excited, he has his kindergarten Halloween party on Tuesday and a truck-and-treat at the church on Saturday. Aubrey loves her red long hair, she would wear it everyday if I would let her.



The Bounce House











Corbin had a day off of school so I had to plan something to get out of the house. This Bounce House was over priced but it did the job to get out and have the kids bounce out some energy. I didn't get many pictures of Corbin because he brought his friend Nathan and they were running around the whole time. They had a blast!

G is for glasses

So it was my turn to teach preschool the other week. Aubrey and her good friend Magen sporty there glasses that they made. We did crafts and worksheet all about the letter G. Aubrey loves preschool, I am so glad we decided to do it.

Crazy Aubrey

So we have had so many posts of Corbin lately, so I wanted to share some pictures of Aubrey being scary or silly, I can't tell.

Corbin's Running Race

Corbin running race went awesome, I wish you all could of been there. We didn't know how he was going to act when he took off and kids started passing him. Curt and I were praying for no tears. Corbin is really growing up. He ran the whole race without crying or stopping and received a metal for completing. (.7 miles) Amazing job Corbin! Curt got a little star stuck by Sarah Palin being at the race. I told him that he should just go over there and talk to her instead of staring at her. He chickened out but got a picture.

Dog Fair



Corbin always wants to hook Baylor up to his slid so he was so excited to have a lady demo how she hooks up and runs her dog team.








You would think Aubrey would be scared of the dog, he was HUGE!






So I am a little behind on my blogs. On Saturday the 19th we decided to go to the Dog Fair. The school that Baylor goes to put on a free fair. They had face painting, balloons, all different kinds of dogs and a bunch of demos.

Goodbye Fred Myers' Bakery

So I quit Fred Myers' Bakery even though I didn't know that I got my basketball coaching job. I wasn't liking the hours anymore and I learned the basics to keep it up at home. I am so glad I followed my interest, the job gave me cake decorating skills and some extra money to enjoy our first summer in Alaska. My main responsibilities were to fill the pastry case. I learned how to do everything in the case but the flower cupcakes. The flowers are harder than it looks. I will miss working there, but if I am wanting to lose weight, that isn't the place to work.

So I am blessed to have a chance to coach again. When we moved to Alaska I didn't know if I wanted to be a head coach in the near future but I knew that I still wanted to be involved some how. So when Eagle River High School was hiring for a head coach I started thinking how much I missed it and would love to be part of a team. I had to get the OK from Curt, which he agreed after I told him how much I would get paid so he could go down to 40 hours a week. ( He was doing 45-50 per week, plus doing homework at night)
Overall I am really excited for a new season of teaching, experience and memories. I hear that I have a great bunch of girls that want to work hard. Go Wolves!
