Job???

Hello everyone. Wanted to let you all know that the job that I wanted finally became available. For those of you who don't. We have a new elementary school opening for the next school year just right down the road. They just found their new principal and now started with looking for the rest of the staff. The Building Secretary just came available and I applied for it along with calling and sending e-mail's to the people I know in the office. I'm praying I get it.

UPDATE May 7 : Well I found out that they hired the building secretary and the health clerk from the middle school to go to the new elementary school. Now those two positions that I'm appling for is going to be at the middle school. Crossing my fingers.

Happy Easter !!!

Today is the day the kids have been dieing for "The hunt for the easter eggs and who finds the most" Here are a few shots of the kids. P.S. I know I already told you dad, but I really did miss my chocolate easter bunny from Dewar's today.

Egg Painting

Today was a great day to stay in and paint eggs. It rained and was cold all day. Yuck. Rooster's friend Noah came over around 11:30 a.m. and we sent him home when our friends from California arrived at around 4:00 p.m. WOW what a day. I'm thinking lately I'm babysitting without being paid. He has spent many nights after school and weekend's over here. If I send the boys to Noah's house they are back within 10 minutes sometimes with even more boys. My house might end up being the hang out. Help Me!!! Okay enough complaining. Here are a few photo's of the kids and decorating their eggs.

Drive day Part 2

Ground Hog (Marmota)
Blue Heron

Tree Squirrel



Prairie dog

This one has a story behind it : We rolled down the windows to take pictures of this huge Turkey. Then we asked Rooster to talk to it. He then goes "gobble gobble gobble" we started laughing so hard because in this picture the turkey was answering him back. So, for a minute or so Rooster and the turkey was talking "gobbling" to each other.




Here are pictures of different animals that we saw over our 3 hour drive. We always get to see deer and elk now for the other animals. We also saw a coyote, but I didn't get a shot off. I think Scott got it with his camera. I wish we saw another moose like we seen a little over a year ago. If you could help me determine what kind of bird is on the rock in the creek. It looks like a stork???

P.S. thanks dad you are right it looks like the Blue Heron. Can you tell I'm not a bird watcher?

Drive day Part 1

I just love looking at clouds
The Mesa's


Picture of another lake 20 minutes from where Scott is staying

2 bull elk's all their (30+) ladies were off to the left of this picture. We were surprised that they haven't lost their antlers yet.




We saw hundreds of deer during the drive, but this was one of the close ups.

It was such a beautiful day today that we decided to take another drive. After all the snow lately we have been getting it was nice to get out finally. Scott came over around noon, so we asked if he wanted to go. He did. So we meet him at the trailer and hit the road. Boy I took so many pictures "162" to be honest. I just love taking sceanery and animal pictures. Here are just a few sceanery and pictures of deer and bulls elks.
