Busy Monday...

So after such a great Fall Break, I had a very busy Monday at school!! I had my second formal observation today, hoping it went well. We had our first "Egypt" challenge with my first graders today, pretty exciting! Also, my Lightning Pom Squad started today. I have 35 girls, ranging from kindergarten to third grade, that I am practicing with on Monday afternoons. We will perform at a Normal Park girls and boys basketball game on November 30th! They are so cute dancing to "I've Got A Feeling" by The Black Eyed Peas (Kidz Bop version.) I am WORN out to say the least, and it's only Monday...

Disney World 2010



So Chris and I just got home today from a wonderful trip to Disney World in Florida!! My Fall Break was this past week, and we left Friday the 15th, and returned today. We went with one of my best friends Amanda, her husband Tyson, and three year old daughter Tallulah. This was Tallulah's first time, and it was very exciting getting to share that with them.

Chris and I stayed at the Polynesian Resort for the week and on the last night, moved to the Grand Floridian Resort and Spa. Needless to say, it will be hard to stay anywhere other than the Grand Floridian...it was amazing!

We decided that seven days in the park was the perfect amount of time. We went to each park; Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios (MGM), and Epcot twice! The last day we spent all day at the Magic Kingdom again.


We went to Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party on Tuesday night. It was a great party! We saw some of the BEST fireworks I have ever seen. The Boo to You parade was incredible as well. We highly recommend the Disney Dining Plan if you plan on staying more than two or three days in the parks. It was very worth the money!

All in all, it was a wonderful trip...we are SUPER tired, but we are ready to start planning again for next year!
