grandsons



Two weekends ago, I had Nolan for the weekend so that Andy & Kristi could celebrate their anniversary in the Smoky Mountains. Garrett came over on Saturday night for a "sleepover." They are so much fun to watch together. Garrett told me he has something even better than a brother or a sister - he has a cousin who almost looks like him!

Here you can see the morning after!


Silent Auction


Last night was the silent auction at St. Clare. They raised over $40,000! This year, each teacher was encouraged to donate something "personal" in addition to our classroom baskets (my room did a Mother's Day Basket this year.) I decided to do 4 hours of beginner's knitting lessons for 2 students. The only stipulation I had was that they be in 3rd grade or higher. I was a little worried that I wouldn't get true "beginners." My lessons went for $90 and I'll be teaching 2 sweet third grade girls. :)
