Go Wildcats!

Don't think we didn't go to Disney's High School Musical on Ice, because we did. And I loved it.
The End.

Donation

Did anyone see Oprah a few weeks ago when Hilary Swank donated her hair? Well, I've been needing a haircut for a long time. I was thinking cutting 3 or 4 inches. After my cute neighbor told me she was donating her hair, I decided to go for it. So Kate and I both cut 8 1/2 inches off to donate to make wigs for women with cancer. You can find the info at beautifulengths.com They are trying to collect one million inches.

Just go for it! Hair grows back. And it makes you feel like you've lost 10 pounds when you really haven't! I'm feeling a little more hip and stylish with my blonde streaks and bangs. And how cute is Kate?? We hope our kids look like her...

National Boards

Just in....I passed my National Boards!!! This may not mean much to you, but for me it represents the last two years of my life. Passing the National Boards for teachers makes me certified to teach in any state for the next 10 years. My friend Cindy and I did it together as part of our Master's program at SUU. She passed as well! Actually passing this is just a big bonus after finishing all of this additional schooling.
I'm just excited and am grateful to know that it's all over...
Sigh of relief -

Update

Okay, people...so my camera died on Halloween right in the middle of me taking pictures. So sad! And this year my costume was AWESOME. Usually I'm kindof a flake about Halloween, but I thought of the brilliant idea all by myself. I was a Guitar Hero. No, THE Guitar Hero. You can imagine...red cape, rocker hair, big star painted over my eye. There's always next year...

In other news, I'm following in the footsteps of my little sis...I am starting to sell Scentsy products. If for some reason I missed you (Allyson, lots of others I am thinking of at the moment) and you are in UT, I am having the opening shin-dig this Thursday night at my house. Check out my website and the catalog - www.scentsy.com/nrobinson
You will love it - fun for your house, great gifts for others.

Hopefully we'll have some other fun pictures/stories to tell soon!

Why 5th Graders Rule

My class earned a party. They wanted to have a crazy hat party. I asked, "What will we do with our crazy hats for 30 minutes??" In time, the class voted for a crazy hat/crazy clothes/dance party USA/fashion show party. Have you ever heard of that?? Anyway, here are pix from the red carpet. The music was playing, the kids were silly, and the boys ruled the show. Fun times...

St. George Trip

Brian and I headed to St. George last weekend for my friend Melanie's wedding. It was a fun conference weekend with just the two of us.
I worked with Melanie at Manila for a few years. It was such a fun day and for those of you that know her, I know you will be happy to see pictures. She and her husband, Clint Nielson, are very happy.

Almost Done

Are you sick of my interior decorating posts? Well, it's all I've been working on and I'm almost done. Here is the (almost) finished product. The kitchen still needs some attention, but that is a new flower arrangement and table runner.

I actually sewed those window treatments myself. Yes, it's true! I did get some help from Brian's sweet mom. Next I am on a pillow sewing rampage. My sister Annie gave us a couch (that my other sister Liza gave to her) and so we are loving that "new" piece of furniture. Fun for us!

Otherwise, we're off to St. George for the weekend for my friend Melanie Bunker's wedding. Looking forward to it!
