Little Ayden

Here are come picture of my last visit with the Wiersum's baby, Ayden.
I just love babies and Ayden is so sweet!

Their nursery is so cute... You can see the giraffe they painted on the wall behind me. They had a zebra on the other wall.

We went to the arts and jazz fest last night. It was a really good time. We got to hear 3 local denton bands: Andrew Tinker and the Good Nights, Brian Houser, and Brave Combo (polka!). It was the first time I had every heard Brave Combo and I was impressed. I even did the Chicken Dance! :)

We have taks testing all week... Yuck! It's going to be a boring week!

So Funny!

Update

A lot has been going on lately...

First, Ayden Christopher Wiersum was born on March 23, 2009 at 4:57pm. He was 8lbs 8oz and 18in long. Mama, daddy, and baby are all very happy and healthy. We have gotten to visit him a few times and he is so so cute! Here is a picture of him on his birthday.
Then the next weekend Matt had the honor of baptizing his friend Sam at church. God is good. Matt and Sam have been good friends for a few years now.

Sam & Ashley and Josh & Kallie have moved north of the bridge about 5 minutes from our house. We are really excited to get to hang out with them more now that they live so close. Both couples are expecting a little one soon.

Life has been really busy lately. My high school students take the math taks test in two and a half week so there is a lot of stress at work. I've been doing taks tutoring on Saturday mornings with some of my students.

Happy Pi Day!

3/14 is Pi Day! We celebrated today in my geometry classes.Here's an awesome pi song that I played for my students:

Sante Fe

We went to Sante Fe, NM over valentine's weekend with Matt's family. It was so much fun. This is a really old church in Old Town Albuquerque. Matt is with his parents, Nancy and Russell. It was a really neat place to visit. There were a lot of native americans who had selling hand made jewelry. I got a pair of mother of pearl earrings. We stopped at one of the scenic views on the way to Taos. Matt and the guys had to climb the hill...

I <3 class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Taos! This is 12,000ft! Theses were taken on our snow mobile trip in Taos. If you have never done it, you should. Just make sure you go with Big Al. Everyone knows him there. This is his truck... he calls it the pope mobile.The Wear's... Jeremy, Russell, Nancy, and Matt
Our God is so amazing to have created this!

Snow angels at the top of the mountain.Sometimes we were driving near the cliffs. I rode on the snow mobile with Matt so I felt safe.
My love...
On Monday, we went skiing at Ski Sante Fe. This is at the top of the mountain right after you get of one of the chair lifts.
Jeremy and his fiance, Melissa...
11,250 ft high and we weren't at the top yet.
The boys...
The scariest part of skiing for me is riding on the lift. I am always afraid of falling off when we are up high!
ALL of the building in New Mexico are made of adobe like this one. This is the downtown square in Sante Fe. There were lots of fun little shops.
This is the Hilton Buffalo Thunder Resort that we stayed at. We stayed on the platinum floor... very nice! A big thank you to Nancy and Russell!
Camel Rock..
Sorry it took me so long to put these up... life has just been really busy! We bought a new Ford Truck yesterday! I'll try to post pics this weekend.
