Good-bye xanga...

Hi friends,

After a few years on Xanga, it's time for me to say good-bye to all my faithful readers!  I will no longer be updating this blog (although my entries were few and far between anyway), but hope to continue blogging more regularly on the journal page of my wedding website.  Thanks for reading!!

For future updates, please go to Becca & Dean's Wedding Website.

Much love,
becca

Election Day through the eyes of 2nd graders

Illustrations that accompanied the journal responses for today's prompt (What are the qualities that make up a good president?):


"the debate"

 
"John McCain's White House"


"...to lower taxes"

  
"Obama"

It was interesting to see how the voices of the students came through in the drawings.

Purple and Orange

me:  so, what do you think our wedding colors should be?
dean:  how about purple and orange?
me: no, we are not having a phoenix suns-themed wedding. 
dean:  oh.  it was worth a shot.

Easy-Bake Oven

For my Teaching Social Studies in Elementary School class tonight, we had to bring in salt dough to make topographical maps.  So last night, before I went to bed, I prepared my dough (2 c. flour, 1/2 c. salt, 1/2 c. water).  I put it in the refrigerator overnight, and this morning, I took it with me to work.  The teacher had told us to take it out of the fridge and let it sit for a while before we use it so that it can have a chance to soften up.  Well, I didn't want to leave it in the fridge at work, so I had no where else to put my dough but in my car.  Little did I know that the temperature would hit 100 degrees today...probably even hotter in my car!  By the time I got off work and checked on my dough, it had risen to twice its size and had turned into a lump of dough with the texture of banana bread.  Who knew you could bake bread in your car? :D 

Here's a picture of what the dough was supposed to be for (a classmate shared her [un-baked] dough with me).
Can you tell what it is? :)

Somewhere over the rainbow...

It was raining really hard on my way home from work today.  I was heading south on the 101 toward Mesa from north Scottsdale.  Behind me, the sky was completely overcast and grey; in front of me, the sky was clear blue with light, fluffy clouds.  As I got off the freeway, I was confronted with the most beautiful rainbow I have ever seen.  It was probably not the smartest or safest thing to do, but I just had to get out my camera phone and take a picture of it! :)  The rainbow was so huge that when I looked in one direction, I saw one end, and when I looked in another direction, I saw the other end.  It was pretty neat.  What an awesome reminder of how cool God is!  

  

On a side note...my teacher canceled class today due to the rain!   Haha...
When I lived in Regina, my sister and I never even got a single snow day.  We had to walk to school in a blizzard when it was -40 degrees Celsius outside.  But in Arizona, they cancel class when it rains... :D
