Bull Dog Canyon





Last night a bunch of friends and myself went to bullhead canyon for quading, repelling, and a bon fire. It was a great time and I am thinking that we need to have more nights like the one last night. The one downside was that it was so cold out there!!!!!!!

Egyptian gods and goddesses






One of the things that we cover in History in 6th grade is Egypt, and because it is Halloween as a 6th grade project all the kids had to create a god or goddess using a pumpkin. Some of the kids work turned out great. On Halloween we had all the kids set up their pumpkins outside and the other kids could come look at them and learn more about the different gods and goddesses of Egypt. Tomorrow is going to be really fun because we are mummifying a chicken in class.

Sunsets in Arizona are the best



As I stepped outside I just looked up and saw a very beautiful blue and pink sky. So I decided to take some quick pics, it may get 115 degrees but the sunsets are the best.

Getting crafty






I try every so often to do something crafty even though I am not the most imaginative person. So I did a class at my house and we created a book dedicated to Wicked the Musical. We took images from a book bought at the musical and created a book that is super cute and could also be used for Halloween. I was really proud of myself and the outcome of the book. I hope to put pictures from when my sister-in-laws, my mom and me all went to cali for a girls trip to see the musical and have a fun time.

Scorpions!

I have decided it is time to move in the last 2 days I have killed 4 scorpions in my house and tonight I killed one in my bed. As I went to bed and was about to turn my light out I see one heading right at me. I was lucky enough to kill it before it could get me but I have decided I need to take action. Making a 12:30am call to the pest control guys I hope they come and help me out because I just might have to move if this is not taken under control and soon.

Stitches..

Today at school I was finishing up my lesson with my kids right before lunch, I went to pull the chair out to sit and lost my balance and fell back into the white board. My kids where really worried and came up to help I asked them to all have a seat because I was okay. The next thing I know one of my kids says to me "Ms. Heap you are bleeding" I look down and there is blood dripping on from my head. I calmly ask one student to call the front office and when he couldn't get ahold of anyone I sent another to go get help. The next thing I know my kids are being ushered out while half the staff has come in to help.
I was sent to the nurse and Sarah my sister-in-law came and took me so that Greg could stitch me up at my dad's old office. After changing and cleaning up I went back to see my kids they where so worried and concerned bet they really pulled through for me and even had some get well cards for me. It was a great way to make a name for myself at my new school.
