Hey Trinka!
While I was at the totally amazing, face melting, mind blowing event known as Creation Fest, I saw Newsboys preform! I rememberd that they were the first band that you saw in concert. I waited in a line full of psychopaths for 3 hours so that they could sign my poster. When I finally got to the front of the line, I only got to see each of them for about 3 seconds. The new lead singer, Michael Tate’s head was way bigger in person than it was on the poster, and I discussed this with several people! Anyway, I wanted to share that with you and let you know that I miss your class, and Cake Day, and playing hide and seek with ninja eating utensils, and your awesome guitar skills, and playing duck duck goose in your classroom every morning, and our dance parties at DI (those were the best). Congrats on your marriage, and I wish you the best of luck with this years students, may you mold them into fine young adults that are almost
(but not quite) as awesome as we were.

Hailey-
Thank you for your heart-warming post! I am glad you had a chance to go to Creation Fest (and see the Newsboys!). I can remember a few of those with my friends when I was your age. I will miss having you all as students. I hope you have a great year too! You know you can come back and visit the Geoland Safari anytime.

I saw you last week and every time you asked me about world geography i never helped you out…”I try to make you like social studies after you are done with geography. Madison did you like social studies after?” “No!” haha…but im definitely coming to help you out when I’m a junior! It is going to be so much fun!(:

Congrats on getting married! I’m really gonna miss eating cake every other Thursday. And I’m also gonna miss my mom telling me not to bring home any World G homework anymore. Haha. Hopefully your 1st Block Odd class is better behaved than ours was. Haaha.
And do you remember the awesome Earth Day/Cake Day cake Rachel and I made? It was amazing, not to brag or anything…

The wedding was absolutely wonderful and Jenna and I had a great time in Argentina too! The picture at the top of the website is of a group of waterfalls we hiked around.
Happy Cake Day! I’m pumped that you are wearing your shirt out in the wild West. Show those kids what it’s all about and spread the news! I’ve gotta run for now and go remind Jenna how lucky she is
Keep in touch with us and let us know how your year is going!!!

By: Ally Brimmer on September 2, 2010
at 4:54 pm
Hey Ally! Good questions! Google Earth is FREE!! It depends on your Internet speed for how long it will take to download. I say probably about 5 min max if you have high speed…
