The Happy Birthday Party for Dad Wil with Liz, Dan, Ryan and Nick.

 

 

Congratulations to Allison on being named teacher of the month!

Most beautiful girls, all over the world and the most wonderful teachers in the world-

they ain't got nut nut nutin on you Allison!

some details  about  it...
the  local  NBC  TV  station has  this  "golden  apple  award"...   They  ask  students  to  send  in 
suggestions  for  their   monthly  teacher  award...
This  is  from  within  the  Entire  viewing  area..  and  Not  just her  own  school..
Then  they  sorta  ambush  the  teacher  IN  the  room,,,  with  Tv  cameras  and  an  anchorman  who  shoves  a  microphone  in  her  face  and  asks  a  bunch  of  questions....
It  is  supposed  to  air  the  first  week  or  so  of  Nov...
she  hopes  that  the  edited  version  will  sound  a  bit  more  intelligent  than  how  she  felt,,,  answering  the  questions,, "off  the  cuff"..
anyway,,  apparently SOME  of   her  kids  like  her  alot  and  enough  to have  sent  in  her  name...we  are  proud  of her.....

Now if all politicians and moderators could be like this, it would be no problem, right?
