Catching up :)

Just thought I'd update my blog since I have been very remiss at writing.

I will start with Valentine's Day. We rarely celebrate it, it's a Hallmark day, but the children in my class couldn't have been sweeter. They brought me bouquets of flowers, a potted tulip, heart boxes of chocolates, mugs , and of course, a variety of homemade Valentines :)

This month I had 2 Mondays off because of President's Day. It was nice to just be lazy. On the 18th, M and I took my friend Jennifer to Acapulco Restaurant to celebrate her birthday, the next day it was our 44th wedding anniversary, we got nice cards & calls from the girls. I told M to just cook something at home since we had just gone out to dinner the day before, he made catfish, yum!

That same day, was my friend N's birthday, I just called him to wish him a happy day :)

Then on Saturday, we went to Long Beach to get S and family. She has really changed with the weight loss and I really didn't recognize her at first. She has really work hard with her diet and it shows. Wish I had the same motivation, good for her! Shortly after we got home, L came from San Diego. We all went out to lunch, when we got to the restaurant area we all chose different things. S and me had Baja Fresh, M and T got Panda Express, and L and MT had sushi. We all brought the food from the different restaurants, and ate outside and enjoyed our lunch. It was very nice.

Afterwards, the women went to the movies to see "He's just not that into you". It was fun. The men did some work outside the house, and M and T went to the book store, of course. For dinner, of course, In'N'Out!

L decided to spend the night at home, so the 3 of us played Scrabble and they both beat their mom (who used to be the champ lol)

Sunday morning, L left back to San Diego. Then M and I took S and family to the port of Los Angeles to go to their cruise ship. Huge ship!

Then M and I went back home, where I sat down to watch the Oscars. Way to go Penelope, finally a Spanish woman got an Oscar. I had seen the Oscar winning move "Slumdog Millionaire" so I was pleased it won.

Now is back to work, and testing, and parent teacher conferences...fun! on Sunday we will go to get Sand and family back from their cruise. I just got an email from her, it seems they are having a great time.

I hope all of you that read this blog are having a great time as well :)
