Getting the tree up

Declan posing with his Christmas bear from last year.

And a snowman

Being a little goofy with the santa hat

Checking out what my camera can do with close ups

We just finished watching WALL-E.   Cute movie, Declan loved it.  I can't figure out why he loves some animated films and not others (he claims to hate Cars...how is that possible?)

We're waiting to see what the weather is going to do.  Big storm on it's way and I think everyone is hoping for a snow day or two.

This year is shaping up to be even more interesting.  If our state budget doesn't include continued funding for smaller elementary class size (which is looking very possible)  then some significant cutbacks will be happening in our district, along with every district in the state.  Hopefully I'll still have a contracted position this time next year.
