Thunderbird Flyover

The U.S. Air Force Demonstration Squadron did a flyover to honor healthcare workers, first responders, and other essential personal during the COVID-19 pandamic.  We heard them clearly but were able to find a few photos and video off Facebook.  Pretty cool!

Last Week of Music Videos

I've successfully recorded six weeks of videos for my students and have finished my Music semester.  I still have 6th grade promotion to work on (and recruiting Cameron to help me) but I am done with weekly lessons!  Yay!

Another Senior Tribute

Tired of senior tributes yet?  We're getting there but it is fun!  This week we put a poster up on the fence near the high school to honor Saugus seniors.

Cameron Coffee Treat

Cameron treated me to a drive in his new car and a belated birthday coffee! 

Little IG filter to add some sparkle!

Mother's Day/Birthday Combo 2020

I was treated to a lovely Mother's Day potted orchid and a sweet card from my guys.  Then we headed over to the Grandparents (masks included) and had a birthday meal of bierocks, sausages and potatoes, plus birthday cake.  Derrik surprised me with one more present: new cushions for two our patio chairs!  Now, they match my new chair.  Our backyard is ready for summer!
It was a perfect day.

We got Mom Hubbard a "Grandma"
shirt and she loved it!

New navy blue cushions and matching pillows.

More Birthday Fun!

The guys went all out to make the day special for me!  Roses, coffee, social media posts, handwritten notes and a cool portrait Cameron arranged to have drawn of us.  So special!

Going to the Poppies!

We celebrated my birthday a little early on Saturday and taking a trip to see the poppies!  We drove towards Palmdale and after some adventurous turns and shortcuts, we found a spot outside the park that we were able to walk to.  The official park was closed but there was lots of cars exploring it anyway.  It was lots of fun!  We threw in a trip to Sonic since it was close by.
We finished the night by bringing dinner in, eating in the backyard and watching a movie. 

This week as a Music Teacher.....

Train whistle!  Toot-toot!

This week, I signed "an intent to return" letter for work and also had my yearly evaluation.  I "exceed expectations" which was nice!  I created another set of videos for my students. 

My teacher appreciate poster

Cameron's set up to video me

Agree to return letter

Evaluation

New Chair for Birthday

I ordered my birthday gift early hoping it would arrive on time.  It arrived early!  Derrik assembled it like a champ and now I have a really nice chair to sit in the backyard.  It's relaxing to sit in, too!

Last of the Yard Signs!

The last of the yard signs officially arrived!  Cameron now has his own shrine in the front yard!!  lol

Quarantine Week 7: April 27th

This week we did "neck trims," I made another blanket and tried out the new coffee trend - dalgona whipped coffee.  Cameron helped me with another week of videos!  Four weeks of my video lessons down, two more to go!

Yum!

A video with another video inside it.  Thanks, Cameron!

5th Grade Bounce to the Beat!
