Cloud Farts and Weiner Hearts

For those of you that I have not talked to today, I have some very exciting news! I was hired today as a 4th grade teacher at the school where I always work!!! I had an interview on Monday, I didn't really tell anyone because I was tired of then telling everyone that I did not get the job. My reverse psychology worked and I finally got the job! I will be working with all my friends with a bunch of great kids so I am just so excited that I feel like I am in a dream. Ten years after graduating college I am finally on a career path that I feel is right for me. I have never had such as important job and I am extremely nervous but also very much ready to get into the class and learn/teach as much as I can! I start in the morning, working on my classroom, to get it ready, and then Monday will be my first day with the new children that have each been selected from the other 3 fourth grade classes. I must give a huge thanks to Jen for all her help, support and guidance. I owe you one! Also, to all my girls in the 4th grade! Thanks for the binder idea and all your help! You guys are so great!

I haven't been taking many pictures lately. We have been super busy with work, illnesses and soccer oh and reading about my new boyfriend, Edward. If you have not started reading the Twilight series, stop what you are doing and drive to your nearest bookstore and buy it. I can't remember the last time an author's words have moved me to tears.
Here is a pic from last weekend when I let Em have two of her girlfriends stay over. They are both little cheerleaders and they are such great friends to Em and really nice girls over all! Hanah, the blond, went to preschool with Em. Shelby is the one of the left. Paige also had her new friend, Georgia, over for dinner that night. Of course all the normal children ate their pizza in record time while the 3 Eagney girls were left at the table trying to finish theirs! And yes, those are WEBKINZ all over the dinner table!



Paige is coming right along in Kindergarten. While Em and I watched Project Runway, Paige wrote some sentences so that everyone can see how well she is doing! She did a great job thinking up those sentences all on her own. Can you believe it?


This is a pic from tonight. I know you can hardly see it but the sky is YELLOW! The air was YELLOW! We had severe storms all night and because of that and the tornado watch, we had our soccer games cancelled! BOO! We had chubby rain and loads of thunder/lightening, or cloud farts if you ask Emma.


A blog is barely a blog without a picture of a cat in a laundry basket.

congrats mo!

and I just read the twilight series over the summer! OMG! i became OBSESSED and then got my sister and my good friend/neighbor hooked too!

I'll warn you though, the last book SUCKED BIG BUTT! I swear Stephanie Meyer didn't even write it! =( I was SO bummed. it totally ruined the entire series for me. we'll have to talk when you get there... heck! we can talk now! i just don't want to give anything away! =)

I also read her other book, The Host. it was pretty good, but hard to get into (after twilight).

If you want another fun vamp series, read Blue Bloods. I can't believe how many YA books I'm reading lately! ROFL!!!!

XOXOXOXOXO
