burback family: January 2012

Sunday, January 29, 2012. The things i love about have 3 kids are endless. i could go on and on. But honestly, i think one of the things i love the most is my chance to be introduced to new things over and over. See, somehow our kids don't always love the same things we love. I think it's in our nature to lead them towards those things that make our blood pump. that bring us great joy. but our passions are not their passions. And i love that. I want to embrace that. Recently it has been lani. Fortunately...

The Huntley 6: Meet Cesar Chavez
http://thehuntley6.blogspot.com/2012/11/meet-cesar-chavez.html
Monday, November 19, 2012. Trey was in play today at school. His TAG group did a play about the life of Cesar Chavez. He was a migrant worker who fought for equal rights and led the boycott of farmers in the mid-1900's. I didn't know anything about him before helping Trey learn his lines. 65279; In the end, he did an outstanding job. He had the most lines and was the only one who had them completely memorized. We are so proud of him! Posted by The Huntley 6. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Saturday, May 25, 2013. What's up with me. (and some links to books.). Four days of school left with my students. Bittersweet. I love this group of kids. They have been so great to work with. They have allowed me the freedom to try some new and crazy things in the classroom. Things that have completely altered the kind of teacher I am becoming. I could keep this same group of kids for years and be happy! Can't wait to change some things up. Plan on implementing The Daily 5 (for those of you who care!

More inspiration for our chalkboard at home. Lani said this is her favorite one yet. I agree. It ranks right up there. Basketball started for Brigg.

Sunday, July 31, 2011. Happy birthday to paul. Today was Paul's birthday. When I was planning this trip I intentionally planned it over his birthday. He loves this place. We BOTH love this place. I couldn't imagine a better gift for him. So it was fitting that we hike up the mountain again today, with our 3 children, 11 years later. Justvas amazing as we remembered. Completely different feel with the kids. WE are so much better. But man, we still have a long ways to go. Love you so much. This will have t...

Thursday, September 15, 2011. Another week is coming to an end. It has gone SO fast. It's been a fairly emotional week for me. But there are some fun things happening! First of all, i have learned that when my students all finally grasp a concept, it is beyond exciting for me. I graded a quiz last night and they all did awesome. I was smiling from ear to ear. I wanted to walk in a squeeeeeze them all today! I couldn't wait to hand them out. And they did not disappoint. Lots of fist-pumping and high-fiving.

The Huntley 6: March 2012
http://thehuntley6.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 11, 2012. This is our church's first year to have AWANA. Last Saturday, the kids had an opportunity to participate in the Pinewood Derby. They were very excited to make their own cars and decorate them any way they wanted. Their cars weren't the fastest but they had a really good time. It was fun to watch them race and cheer for everyone. Trey got fifth place in the overall Spark's division with his General Lee car. Posted by The Huntley 6. Monday, March 5, 2012.

Tuesday, July 31, 2012. Do you know Paul? If you don't, you should. You would love him. Shortly after Paul and I started dating, I was working at Dillards in Waterloo. This woman came in with a little newborn. I asked his name. She said "Paul! I thought this was interesting because you don't hear of a lot of babies named Paul. I asked her if it was a family name or had any meaning and she simply said, "Ya know, when we were coming up with names I told my husband I had never met a Paul I didn't love!
