today was a good day

i just decided this morning that today was going to be a good day no matter what happened.  i'm tired of having bad days.  i know life is what you make of it, so i was determined to make it better.  it started off with this great photo opportunity (although spencer was in the backseat shouting, "we don't have time for pictures!"...i thought we had straightened that out last week.)

then later in the morning i checked my school mailbox and there was a $50 gift certificate to scraphappy's in it!!!!  it was a thank you for watching a friend's son way back in august!  wow!

after that i went to our coke machine, and mr. pibb was back and it was cold!  {we've been having issues with our machine.}  not only was it cold, it was so cold that it was slushy!! BONUS!

the kids were better behaved today and my intern did a fabulous job on her science lesson!  {i am so blessed to be working with her this semester.  it would be awesome if she could get a job at my school. :) }

tonight i went to dinner with gina, trish and rhonda and had some yummy zucchini sticks, pizza and nutter butter ice cream topped with hot fudge!  

all of my boys, including the preacher, are home safe and sound right now.  so it's been a good day.  i hope tomorrow is another good one.
