The Newest "Howard"

Last week, we added a new addition to the Howard household...
Meet Ellie!

She is shy, calm, and loving.  (For those that know us, this is the complete opposite of our first cat, Petri!)  

Soon, we'll be adding another new family member.  Brian will be getting a chocolate lab (I think that's what he decided) after he installs the underground pet fence.  One big happy family :)


At school, I've gotten settled into my classroom and the school schedule.  Other than feeling drained of all energy from time to time, things couldn't be better.  Tomorrow, I'm kicking the week off with a weathering/erosion experiment, a lesson on latitude and longitude with oranges, and a line plot and median math lesson with raisins.  Hopefully this amount of hands-on will keep them (and me) awake and energized! Gosh...now after typing that, what was I thinking?  This could be mayhem.  Only time will tell...

Today, I bought a glue gun...finally.  How excited was I?  I came home and made something to experiment with it. :)

I still have to add a second row of crayons to the bottom of the wreath before I add wooden letters that spell "Mrs. Howard"
