Help!

I can't post photos with my blog because when Jake wiped out my computer this spring...he wiped out my photo program. Now I don't know how to reduce my photos to fit onto the site. I take such high quality photos that I cannot use them without being reduced. I have no idea what to do until I get a photo program.

Spring Break II

Jake went to Florida too this year for his spring break. His was definitely a "college" vacation.

I don't know if there is a photo from his experience that doesn't include a bottle or glass of some type of alcoholic refreshment. I'm still looking......

Spring Break 2010

For the second year in a row...no vacation for me.

I never quite recovered financially from the fiasco of 2008,

where my truck broke down and I had to stay in Florida for 5 extra days.

Maybe some day.....

Amanda and her friend Leslie went para-sailing.
Scarry.

The girls flew down with Steph and John for a week in Fort Meyers Beach.
The weather was awesome every day, they met a lot of new friends and had a great time in the land of sunshine.

I got a lot of cleaning done and spent the week with three dogs.
Oh, well....

Madison 2010

Time for the annual visit to the capital in Madison...

an exciting adventure for a new group of students.

We had nacho sales for two months to earn the money to pay for our trip.

Once again, many of the kids had never been out of the city.

The entire 4th grade class. 19 of them are mine.

I thought the bus was going to tip over when we passed some

horses grazing in a field out in the country.

The kids all flew over to the windows and were in complete awe.

They had never seen anything like this.......

The kids were thrilled that Jake met up with us
and was a chaperone to this group of students.

My son in his new "home" town.

Thanks for helping out Jake.
