We hope you all enjoyed your time off from school. Our teachers certainly did, but we missed our students. Here is a peek at what each teacher did over the holidays.
Mrs. Walker: I spent lots of time with family. Sarah came home from college. It was nice having her here for a while. Son Daniel went shopping with me. He drove to the store and helped carry bags into the house when we got home. Deborah and son-in-law Daniel helped a lot with cooking. We had lots of company to feed. Eli was off work Christmas Day, so she could spend the day with family. I love it when all of my kids are together. We even got to spend time with Granddaughter Emma. That's always fun.
Ms. Bishop: Over Christmas break I spent lots of time with my family and friends. My best friend Michelle has a new little baby that I spent time with and I got to give Ryleigh her first Christmas present ever. She really loved her pink and yellow Passy's I gave her! Chris and I also spent time planning our wedding for next year, we got a lot done. We know have a venue, photographer, DJ, and my dress! Now I just want December 10th to hurry up and get here. :) The best part of the break was being able to spend time with my family at home and just relax. I hope every had a wonderful break as I did.
Mrs. McLaughlin: Over the Christmas break my house was FULL of people. My oldest daughter, Devin, was home from college. Mr. McLaughlin’s parents came to visit us from California. We did a lot of Wii bowling, played cards, and took a trip to New Braunfels, Texas. We cooked and ate plenty of delicious food. Being together with family is my favorite part of the holidays.
Miss Smith: I had a wonderful break! My fiance Evan and I drove all over the state since his family lives in east Texas and my family lives in south Texas. It was so great to get to spend time with family. Of course my two dogs were along for the ride! Evan's parents have 5 dogs and my parents have 4 so Nolan and Dos were very happy to see all their friends! I hope everyone had a great break and I would like to wish everyone a happy and healthy 2011!
Mrs. White: Over the break I got to spend A LOT of time with Vivian and Mr. White. Since both of our families live in Dallas we got to visit with all of them, it was fun speaking Spanish at my parents house and switching to English with his family. But my favorite part was when Santa came to our house! Vivian got to hear Santa stomping on our roof and the reindeer's jingle bells. She was sooooooo excited but also reminded me that if we didn't go back to sleep Santa wouldn't leave presents for her. I had a GREAT vacation. What did you do?
Durante las vacaciones de invierno pase mucho tiempo con Vivian y Mr. White. Como nuestras familias viven en Dallas pudimos visitarlos a todos, fue muy divertido hablar español en casa de mis padres y cambiar a Inglés con su familia. Pero mi parte favorita de mis vacaciones fue cuando Santa vino a nuestra casa! Vivian pudo escuchar los pisotones de Santa en nuestro tejado y los cascabeles de los renos. Ella estaba muy feliz, pero también me recordó que si no volvía a dormir Santa no le dejaría regalos. Tuve unas excelentes vacaciones. ¿Tu qué hiciste?
