Something Fishy…

On Wednesday Brad and Russell took a little adventure to the ranch.  Their purpose was to release 3000+ fish in the pond for fishing in the later years… Here are some picks to tell about their fishy business…

   

The Fish were put into big plastic bags (like the goldfish you  win at a carnival or something)

Then they put them inside old feed bags to keep the sunlight out

Inside all those bags… 3000+ Fish

  

Russell about to embark on the release Got Fish?You had to scoop  cups of pond water in first to slowly get the fish used to the water temperature change.

Bentley and Nala helped?

Mr. Calico the Cat Fish  

Let the games begin!!!!

These Days!!!! Long Post!

Hello World!!! Have you missed me? Who am I kidding... Anywhos, I am back and I thought I would tell you about life

So lets go back... I have now been working for 6 months and I am loving every minute of it! The kids that I work with are considered "At Risk" for one reason or another... grades, behavior, emotional stability... and so on... I have an office/classroom that I work out of, but most of my time is spent in the classroom with the students that I service. I have different reading groups, friendship groups, and individual mentors. Also, I get to go on field trips, its the best!!!! So far I have been to see Mr. Goodbody- Bodyology, The Zoo (with kindergarten, they were precious and so exhausted on the way home... I had two fall asleep in my lap)
Polly want a Cracker?
got to love the Elephant

Taking a little nap

This guy was the craziest thing I had ever seen... its half ZEBRA half GIRRAFE... I don't even want to know how that works????

 

And the Dallas Arboretum...

All these flower pics were taken on my phone... I was pretty impressed!!! Thanks Amy for my new phone I love it!!!!

I still have a few more  field trips that I am going on and can't wait! The kids really brighten up your day and the tougher the kid the more rewarding!

My week looks like this...

Monday: work 8-4, cook dinner, watch Chuck, Stephen comes over to help us finish dinner

Tuesday: Work 8-4, coach from 4:15-7:30(ish), cook something quick or pick something up, hang out with the husband and go to bed

Wednesday: Work 8-4, nap if possible (after all I haven't had one all week), head to church, eat dinner with the youth after at whataburger, taco bell, chick-fil-a or wendy's (not so great for the diet).

Thursday: Work 8-4, coach from 4:15-7:30(ish), try to get together with friends or do something fun for dinner... watch some shows head to bed

Friday: Work 8-4, rest until we have our CO-ED soccer game or its rent a movie and eat junk food!

Saturday: SLEEP IN!!!! If you know me, this is one of my most favorite activities... I know I am in trouble when we decide to have kids but... God is good! Just pray for me! This is our hang out day... I "like" to clean on Saturdays for some reason, however if its busy that doesn't happen!

Sunday: Church, lunch with friends, NAP! and Sports TV, game night, laundry and other miscellaneous things!

Brad's scedule is a little more day to day change... but Tuesdays is basketball league while I am coaching my girls and then Thursdays he has fraternity meetings (FIFA)... and then the rest of the time we are not working, we are normally doing the same thing!

1ST PLACE: That's right, my gymnasts took first place last saturday... let me break it down for you: There are 4 events that girls compete on Vault, Bars, Beam, Floor- this is considered the olympic order, so wherever you start, say Bars, you will always go to beam, then floor, then vault. You will never go from vault to beam.. make sense? The score is given by a judge and it is taken out of a possible 10.0- very few acheive the perfect 10, but it is possible! This last week, I have two girls get all 9.o's and higher! So proud of them! then I had two other girls get three 9.o's or higher... so I had 4 girls with a 9.0 (or higher average). Gymnasts who average scores in the 9's are the top of the pack. For the team score they take the best 5 scores from each event, and then they add them all together to get our teams score, which was 1st PLACE!!! Gymnastics is however an individual sport, but at the level that my girls are competing all gymnasts are given acheivement ribbons, they will not receive placements against each other and other gyms until the next level. Needless to say, all 8 girls did a tremendous job and I was such a proud coach that day and still am! We have one more meet before our state meet at the end of April! The girls are working so hard and they are going to do so great!

FRIENDS: We have been getting together with so many fun people lately and I love it... from school and church and ones that have moved away... We love hanging out and having fun whenever we can!

BAYLOR: Championship Ring???? The boys are a number three seed (is this how you spell it?)and the girls are a number 4, this year in the NCAA tourney and we are looking good! I am cheering them on to the "SHIP!" So Proud, SIC' 'EM BEARS!!!!!!

The First Day…

Well here I am, my first day of school  Work, I was so excited! I couldn’t wait to get up and get dressed and meet new friends.  

Brad surprised me with these fun desk necessities

and I couldn’t wait to use them!

The first day was filling out a bunch of personal paper work, and HR stuff.  But the next day I got to spend some time with the kids and I loved it!!!!  I still cannot believe how great God is! I know He is, but it still surprises me every time! Will I ever learn that He really is in control.  Geez!!!! I am now fully submerged in my new job and I am loving it.  The first week was a little rough because I had to work on file after file after file for all of our students.  But this past Thursday, I finally got to really do my job! I love working with the kids so much! The best part of my day is when one of them will pass me in the hall and say “Hi Mrs. Remy” or when they give me a hug! So rewarding!  God is so good!

Fall has come to the Webb House!!!!

Fall has been at our house for a little over a week now, and I am absolutely loving it.  I haven’t always been real big on decorating for the holidays, but with help from my friend Brittney, I was inspired.    

Last year Brittney made me this cornucopia (sp?) So cute! So last Monday when I came home from the store with candy corns,  my heart was ready for fall!  I pulled Brittney’s creation out of my “fall” box and started decorating.  Brad was actually excited that our house was decorated for fall and loves the candy corns. I have made some additions this year such as

The turkeys and the flower arrangement

This pumpkin, so cute in person!

This pumpkin and napkins!

and this little pumpkin showcase!

You just can’t beat Hobby Lobby and their 50% off sales! 

Sidenote Story:  The first picture with the word “FALL” was a fun little project that Brittney and I did with our sweet friend Margie!  Margie was admitted to the hospital on Friday, because she went into pre-term labor with her twin baby girls! Through the power of prayer the labor was stopped and those babies will hopefully stay in her belly for the next two months.  But, that means Margie is on hospital bed rest until then.  So we had to have a “Fall” intervention last night!  Brittney and I arrived at the hospital around 8:30 ( i had to work ) and three hours later our masterpieces were finished!  Margie is doing really well and the babies are great, Dad is a little tired with late nights and early mornings but he is hanging in there! Please keep praying for this sweet family! Kendall and Emery we are all so excited to meet you but we CAN wait til your done cookin in your Momma! So stay in there!  Here are some pictures that Brittney took last night, they are on her blog too!

you have to have “snacks”

Margie and me, mid way through!
