Monday Night Bliss...

It is Monday night, and Monday night for me here in Kona is family night. Family night consists of me, my roommate Chrissy, great food, and the tv!

For dinner we made grilled brats (yes, on an actually bbq! It's legit or nothing at all!) with grilled onions and some pillsbury bisquits. Mmmm mmmm. And we enjoyed our food with a couple of glasses (very small glasses!) of Clos Du Bois merlot.

This is a very special night in the realm of our family night because this week all of our shows return for the new season. "How I Met Your Mother" returns tonight which we are super stoked for! And tonight is the premiere of "Hawaii Five-O"! We are totally excited for that!

Tonight is going to be a great night!

Back on the Net!

Aloha one and all! I have not forgotten about you! For the past month and a half I have been without internet, but as of today I am officially back online! Yay!

I have had 29 days of school so far and we are only a couple quick weeks away from the end of the first quarter! Yikes! I am loving teaching first grade and I absolutely love having my same students from last year. I have five additional students this year and they are all great, super smart and very well behaved!

I get to teach social studies in first grade, which has been great so far. We celebrated statehood day in August and this month we are studying Johnny Appleseed. His birthday is on September 26th, which we will celebrate in class, so if anyone has any ideas on activities I could do, let me know!
