Kristin and Hadar are having their annual 12 in 12 party. Make sure you get in on the party!
12. Favorite Movie:
It was difficult to choose....but because I love my dad and watching baseball with him, Trouble With the Curve wins. (However, I am SO looking forward to Les Miserables and may have to edit this post later.) Pitch Perfect was a close second (so much funnier than I expected).
11. Favorite New and Old TV Series:
While I realize this is not a new show...it is new to me and I am hooked. Knock knock knock-Penny. Knock knock knock-Penny. Knock knock knock-Penny!!
New show...that is quite clever...and a good substitute while I wait for new episodes of BBC's Sherlock and Downton Abbey
10. Favorite Restaurant:
Still Spaghetti Factory....I am a creature of habit:-) Pretty sure this my favorite restaurant last year also.
9. Favorite Book:
The One and Only Ivan is an amazing story. Go read it! Our local zoo, just had a baby elephant born and my kiddos made some great connections between the event and the story.
8. Favorite Gift:
A tie between student made me a fleece blanket, with volleyballs all over it and the LA toaster/waffle maker....my class knows me so well!
7. Favorite Thing Pinned:
This was REALLY difficult...but I narrowed it down to two!
The Laptop Privacy Sweater...cracks me up EVERY time I see it!
Quite a clever thought-
6. Favorite Blog Post:
How Many Mediums....is my favorite blog post. When I originally found the world of blogging, I just stalked and got lots of great ideas. Then I thought about how maybe things going on in my class might help inspire someone else. This post is exactly what I love about blogging...the sharing and then adapting of ideas from one teacher to another. I blogged about an art project we did and then my friend Jenny at Owl Things First adapted it for her class!
5. Favorite Accomplishment:
I made a roast...all by myself...it took 13 hours in the crock pot (I may need a new crock pot). But I did it and it was delicious.
4. Favorite Picture:
3. Favorite Memory:
Every year, I coach a spring volleyball team. Usually 4th and 5th grade. This year, I also coached a 6th-8th grade team. At a practice, one girl started laughing, hysterically and within minutes the whole team was on the floor laughing....still no one knows what they were all laughing at.
2. Goal for 2013:
Continually look for the good, when things seem difficult. I can complain about giant class size or be glad for the special personalities that I get to hang out with everyday! I truly do LOVE what I do.
1. One Little Word:
Glad
Happy Sunday,

I think I would pick that picture, too! I have to see both of those movies still. I'm not very good at sitting still for two hours! If I lived closer to a Spaghetti Factory, that would be my favorite, too! I always took visitors there when I lived in St. Louis.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, BBF!
