Here's the cake I made for Olivia's first birthday. 5. I was in high school musical! Okay... just kidding. I wasn't in THIS High School Musical... but when I was in high school I participated in lots of different musicals. They were tons of fun!

5. My favorite subject is math and I am very excited to be teaching it to you this year. Multiplication is so much fun to learn.


4. My favorite book in third grade was Weird Parents. I used to read it every night before I went to bed. It still makes me laugh. Doesn't everyone think that their parents are a little weird?




3. Puzzles are one of the things I can't say "No" to. I always have one I am working on, but sometimes I have a hard time sharing.
