Football and Relaxing

I am so excited that it is a holiday weekend.  That means no school tomorrow!  I have enjoyed having kids back in the classroom but a day off is always nice too.  This weekend we drove to Lubbock to watch Tech’s first game.  We were excited but also nervous since Brynlee has become quite the busy body.  Luckily my parents have tickets as well so we were able to shift Brynlee around so she didn’t get bored.  There was so much for her to watch that she was so excited from start to finish of the game.

When we got to the hotel we thought she would crash since she missed her afternoon nap.  It was right in the middle of getting ready and she was too excited about her new tutu to sleep!  We were wrong about the crashing part.  She was still very wound up from the game.  A hot, exhausted, wound up, teething baby is not the best combination in a hotel room when you have no medicine to help the teething.  We tried everything we could think and finally daddy came to the rescue after some very restless attempts at sleeping.  Daddy drove Brynlee around town for 2 hours at 4:45 in the morning and then went to Wal-Mart for some teething medicine.  That was just the trick for her to go back to sleep and for us to get some sleep. 

By the end of the game we were hot!  

The headband, bow, tutu, shoes, and socks all had to come off so I could get wild and crazy cheering!

We had a super yummy brunch at Blue Mesa Grill and visited with family before heading back home.  Tomorrow we have really big plans of…. Relaxing and hanging out at the house!  Have a wonderful Labor Day Holiday!

Here are some pictures of my classroom.  

I love my outside display walls but will have to remember to take pics of those next week!
