Valentine's Day

What a crazy Valentine's Day it was today.  First we had a two hour delay, which cancelled the 7th and 8th graders skating reward trip.  That in its own right would have made the students more hyper than normal, but to add Valentine's Day into the mix, they were on overload all day long.  We had a small Valentine's day party in my class for 7th, 8th and 6th grade, complete with Gogurts since we still cannot use the appliances.  My fifth graders had just enough time to deliver their persuasive letters before lunch and their skating trip.

At practice some of the girls were still hyper, while others were exhausted.  I tried to make the practice as fun as possible, but still had several in tears.  After practice, Meg and I headed home to get ready for the Northwood vs. Tippy Valley girls sectional semifinal.  One of my co-workers has a division 1 bound athlete on the Northwood team and we wanted to support her, and it helps Meg to watch how other girls play.

I thought that Doug was going to go with us, but Cal wanted to go to dinner with him.  Doug jumped at the chance as our time with Cal without his friends has definitely lessened this year.  They had a great dinner at Mad Anthony's, Meg and I watched Northwood destroy their opponent, and Cameron spent the evening sledding with one of his best buddies, Braxton.  It was not our normal routine on Valentine's Day, but everyone had a fabulous time.
