UMMM A really BIG catch up post!

Well, I just want to say that all of my creativity over the last three months has been poured into my school work and my hours in the classroom.  Oh, did I forget to mention I was in Les Mis? Les Mis was so much fun and a life experience I will never forget. I loved every minute of it.  I also love every minute in the classroom I am having a blast with "my" kids. They make me laugh every day.  Balancing school, Les Mis, housework and my own family has been tough and I really did want to finish this blog out right.  I'm going to do my best to post a picture a day until the end of the year. So check back in!

I might have to let it go....Anyway, this week was a huge busy week between school and more school and ballet and piano and rehearsal and company for dinner and SCHOOL! Aaron did manage to catch of picture of me on Saturday at rehearsal. Sunday peach and I had the stomach flu so no picture that day! Maybe today I'll be able to catch a picture at ballet?

Okay so I completely dropped the baton and tripped all over my self this week! Between the pouring rain, a botched trip to Anchorage, 5 nights of Les Mis practice, a visit from my adviser, recovering from a root canal, 15 hours at school, 100 pages of reading and what ever else came my way I was pretty busy-but still smiling and not to stressed. Anyway, please except this batch of photos as an effort to catch up. Most were taken on Friday and Saturday.

It has been raining for several days, not Irene rain, just your normal Kodiak blowing 25 mph sideways rain.  All of the waterfalls and river are really flowing right now so Aaron and I headed out to do some creative photography.  Two people together are great, plus Aaron is my scout for searching out the best way to get down these steep hills.
