Christmas parties, photos and graduation choir...

Last week I went to two christmas parties from our school. One was by the 1st graders one by the fourth graders. They were a lot of fun and the kids did a great job playing songs and doing some other little plays for their parents. 
I brought my play-station and we had the kids play "singstar" ad they had a lot of fun with it and I laughed a lot. They did a great job!





Wednesday I babysat two of my boys again and we took some pictures that turned out pretty good. Sadly some of them turned out blurry cause my battery was dying... 
Wednesday evening I attended the BC's graduation. We got to sing three songs with our choir which was so much fun! I was amazed at how fast we were able to learn the songs.





Graduation
I had to say goodbye to some of my friends, which I am used to by know. That doesn't mean that I would not miss them. I just know that I will get to see them again at some point.

If I had stayed in Neverland...

Friday evening the BC had a theme-party at the café. The topic was "Neverland" so I had actually planed to go in a blue nightgown or dress, as Wendy wears it in the Peter Pan stories. I couldn't find one, so I just put on what I could find, painted some dirt into my face and grabbed a wooden sword. Now I was Wendy who never left Neverland. :-)

We finally made it, for the last semesters we have been trying to get the Neverland people together: Michael, John, Wendy,Peter, and for the looks our friend Rufio. Also notice Peter's shadow in the back, I am fixing him... :-)


I knew it!


Hook, he just can't leave me alone...

snow, kids, classrooms and friends


Hi there.

The other day it snowed so much that I got stuck half way to school and so went home for the day. It wasn't to bad, since the school bus didn't make it either and so over half of the kids weren't there anyway. Well, it was nice to have a day off, but I do miss those kids whenever I don't get to see them. So I took my camera to school the next day and we had fun taking pictures with it. Of course everyone wanted their own picture with me. :-) Here are a few of the nicest:

Fourth-graders



Ahhh, I love those kids so much. I have to leave them by the end of the year, because I got a now job at a bigger school. It will be a good place to work and I will have way more to do, but I will surly miss the personal contact I was able to have with the kids at the little school. Here we only have 90 students, at the new school it will be 400!

On thursday I went out to dinner with my friends Alex R., Jason, Patrick and Frank who is Alex's friend from Jersey. Alex invited me for my birthday. It was a lot of fun and I really appreciate this time I can have with my brothers in Christ. Unfortunately I didn't bring my camera, so there are no pics, but we had a great time and a lot of fun. :-)

Afterward I went to church and hung out with some more friends of mine. 
Ines, Matthias, Jonathan and I met Daniel at BK later on ( no, I did not eat again :-p) and guess what...the camera was there too. haha
I just love sharing these moments with you guys and love it when I can put pictures to let you join in the fun! :-)


haha, we were NOT trying to hold hands here..haha, thanks Kerstin for noticing :-) Daniel took the pic, so he's not in it...

oh, there he is! :-)

Big hug to everyone!
