Getting better with techmology

Part of the reason I don't do this very often is b/c I'm not very good at it. It takes me forever to figure out what to do. I look wistfully at the Hare girls' blogs, hoping to be as good as they are. Well, I'm getting better. Dutifully copying Megan, I have now set up a Flickr account. Also, related to my new techmology effort (Ali G, anyone?), I have set up a Facebook account. It was awesome! I open the account and I have 3 new friends immediately--Laurie Higginbotham, Alison, and Molly from work. Then I started surfing around to see who else is out there. I don't really keep up with anyone from my past--I'm more of a "now" girl, but since I grew up in such a small town and my sister still lives and teaches there, I still know of a lot of people from there. I start looking at all 50 people in my high school network. They are all at least ten years younger than me. Several of them I taught when I taught that one year. Most are still in HS. So, I'm thinking I might be too old for Facebook. But, I will try harder on the blogging.

Let's see if I can get that Flickr thing going and maybe you can see pictures of the girls.

The girls

OK, so I have been so horrible in posting photos, here are a few.

Vacations

So I'm getting all geeked up about family vacations. We have already booked a trip with the Olszewski's to Port Aransas the week after Labor Day (cheaper rates). We are now contemplating a trip with the Fredericks to Montana in August. We have never taken a plane trip with the girls, so that could be interesting. Maybe we can book the same flight as theFredericks. The moms sit together, the dads together, and the four girls running up and down the aisle. Fantasic!
