Very Successful {"PI-DAY} at W.C.H.S!!!.....

.....WOW:)...I was really excited to hear how much money they raised for the Math Dept. and the funding of "THE LINDA KING MEMORIAL MATH SCHOLARSHIP"...

Ms.Cantrell said they raised over $600...and my donations SOLD OUT the very first day, bringing in over $250!...

I am so BLESSED to have been asked to help out with such a wonderful cause:)...

Thanks again to Ms.Marla Cantrell and Ms.Lucretia Brown for asking me to help out. I think you both ROCK and are wonderful teachers:)

My donation for WCHS "Pi Day".....

.....Happy "Pi DAY" (3.14)!!!

Ms. Marla Cantrell asked me to make goodies for the WCHS Math Dept. to sell, to contribute in funding "THE LINDA KING MEMORIAL MATH SCHOLARSHIP".

I was very honored to have been asked to help out, especially for such a great benefit:) Ms.King was a wonderful math teacher, who I absolutely loved and admired. I admired her strength and courage and watched her battle cancer, to which she lost her fight last year. I know she will be smiling, looking down on them as she knows one lucky and deserving student will benefit from such an honorable scholarship awarded in her name:)...

6 dozen Vanilla Cupcakes=76 bags, 5 dozen Nutty Chocolate Chip cookies=26 bags(2perbag), and 5 dozen "Pi Sugar"cookies=34 bags(2perbag).

First signs of Spring.....

.....have sprung!

After dropping the kids off at school Friday, Terry and I headed to Riverfront park for a little walk.

I love taking pics of "blooms", and I couldn't resist snapping a pic of this forsythia bush in full bloom, down by the river.

Thank you Lord for giving us such a beautiful day:)

"CONFECTIONS" for the Convention.....

.....by special request from my "surrogate son", Kyler Walker:)...

He wanted PUMPKIN WHOOPIE PIES with Marshmallow Creme Cheese Filling...so that's what they got!

Also, Ms.Barrett asked me months ago, if I would make cupcakes, because she fell in love with them from last year:)...

So, I hope everyone got their "sugar fix" for the weekend, and hopefully they will bring home a trophy from the Talent Show!!....GO WCMS INTERACT:)
