Ten on Tuesday: 10 Best Memories from 2007 . . .

Since I am back in the blog business, thought I would start right back in with Ten On Tuesday again. This week it is "Best Memories from 2007" . . . actually it was best moments but I like memories better, so here goes . . . .

  1. This is an easy one . . . watching Aiden being born and seeing how much he has become part of our family in nine short months
  2. Having Kate tell me that she passed the last part of her Praxis exams . . . so now she could become fully certified to teach in Ohio
  3. Eating dinner at the Blue Coral Seafood & Spirits restaurant in Newport Beach, CA . . . possibly the best meal I have ever eaten in a restaurant in my life
  4. All the traffic jams we managed to sit in while vacationing throughout the summer . . . not really fun times, but memorable nonetheless
  5. Staying at the Beachcomber Motel in San Clemente, CA
  6. Returning to Maine with Cathe and revisiting the Kingsleigh Inn in Southwest Harbor and Acadia National Park
  7. Having my brother Dick visit for Thanksgiving . . . Now that he is living in Indianapolis hopefully this will happen more often
  8. Spending Christmas right here in Lima with my sister Judy and her son Josh flying in from San Diego
  9. Having the rental agency cancel our Outer Banks rental because the house was not finished yet, 10 days before we were supposed to leave on vacation
  10. The last day of the school year when all the teachers stand outside and wave good-bye as the buses pull out of the parking lot . . . Let the summer begin!

So there you have it, in no particular order I might add, my most memorable memories from 2007. So what are yours?

Woke up to 59 degrees again this morning! Can't believe it. Yesterday we broke the record high temperature for January 7 here in Lima . . . wouldn't be surprised if we did it again today. The rain and thunderstorms are supposed to move in later today and then they are calling for snow again this weekend. Oh, the joys of living in Lima!

Time to begin thinking of my Tuesday school day activities. Both of my students were back to school yesterday and for a Monday, it was a pretty smooth day. Oh by the way, Ohio State lost the national championship game to LSU last night . . . should make for an interesting day of moaning and groaning at work today.

Have a great Tuesday everyone!
