crazy

my assistant's brother works at our school. he is one of our custodians. on thursday he came into our classroom to say goodbye to his sister (he was going home early). when he was walking out of the room my assistant said "see you at home". they live right next door to each other. one of my students was listening and he said "mrs. marsh, are you married to your brother?" she giggled and said no. my student said"oh good, 'cause my dad told me if you marry our sister or brother you have crazy babies."

too funny!

faith

"I tell you the truth, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." Matthew 17:20

I'm going to Africa!!!!!! (thanks Annie, can't wait to see you christy, and thanks to my faithful god for working in my heart and the hearts of my friends to encourage me to go!)

good times

saturday night i went out with my peeps from work and we had a great time. we went to the long branch saloon in raleigh. if you've never been its kind of like walking into the heart of texas. you'll see lots of cowboys, lots of hairspray and some serious line dancing. i'm proud to say that i learned how to do 4 line dances!!!! yes i did. for the most part i think they look harder than they really are-most of these dances are just a mix of about 3-5 basic steps. and as an added bonus we got to see a gorgeous country singer, chuck wick, perform. he was so yummy! anyways, it was a good time. here are a few pictures from the night. enjoy!

need i say more??????

so it's finally super bowl weekend. jason is here for the festivities, i've cooked "crack for your taste buds" snack mix ( i know its a crazy name), and heath bar chocolate cake. kim and howard are making meatball subs, michele is making spinach artichoke dip, elizabeth is making pigs in a blanket and ryan is bringing (notice i didn't say making) wings and cheese dip. we've got the big screen hd television, plenty of soda, but there is one thing missing.... mom and dad :(

now if this was just any super bowl it wouldn't be as important for them to be here-but this is a super bowl with the NY GIANTS. we have been die hard giants fans for as long as i can remember and we've watched almost every past super bowl that they were in as a family. so, it's kinda makes me sad that we can't be together. we looked at airfare and the possibility of them coming, but it was just too expensive and impossible to get them back to NY by monday morning for work. so-the halsey family will watch the super bowl from NY and NC-we're gonna try to connect a webcam so we can talk a bit during the game. we aren't sure it will work but we'll try. i think this is just another reason why they need to move to NC asap!!!!

Go GIANTS!!!!
