traveling with color guard




I have been writing quite a bit about the weather and I thought I would make a change today. Today I am going to write about someone very special to me, my daughter, Jennifer. This year she is a senior and I am savoring every minute of her senior year. Won't be long and she will be leaving for college. Jennifer competes in color guard year round. To make sure I don't miss anything I am a very involved color guard mom. I made the flags her group uses in their performances and I travel with them to all shows. I am having a blast doing this. I am looking forward to the world championships in April. I apologize to my students because I will be missing 3 days of school to travel with Jennifer to Dayton Ohio for this championship. We will travel by bus to Dayton, Ohio. Leave on a Tuesday night and return Sunday night. Just have to survive a 14 hour bus ride, but definately worth it.

After you showed us your daughter's colorguard video in Pre-Calc I was telling my mom about it. It turns out she used to do colorguard in her high school. I also have a family friend who has a cousin that does colorguard. She is from NH and she was at the same competition your daughter was at and she said she saw their routine!

I'm sure we could garner enough interest for a color guard team!

Red Sox time is here!

Everyone has reported to Spring training and the first pre-season game is Wednesday at 7:05. I am very excited, but I will have to skip this game because our boys basketball team has its playoff game at the same time and they are more important to me than the Redsox.

One School One Book

I have been reading the book "The Day the World Came to Town" and something is on my mind that I have to share with everyone. Can you believe how incredibly generous and trusting the people in Gander are? I would like to think that I would be the same, but I am not sure. I know that I would definately bring supplies to where ever the people were being placed, but I am not sure that I would open my house up to strangers. I couldn't get over how people were invited into the homes to take showers and the home owners would leave the house and tell them to make themselves at home. I would like to think that I could be that way, but I am not sure I would. What about you? Could you be that trusting of stangers?

What are you reading?

Have you read any good books lately? I am trying to find a great book for the incoming freshmen to read over the summer. The current freshmen class read "The Number Devil", but they didn't like that choice so I am trying to find something more enjoyable for the students. Right now I am reading "October Sky" by Homer Hickham. I am only 60 pages into the book, but I am enjoying the little that I have read. I would like to hear about any books that you have read and would recommend.
