Field Trip

On Tuesday, March 24, the fifth and sixth grade classes went on a field trip to the California Science Center (CSC) in LA.  (It’s right next to the Memorial Stadium, home of the USC Trojans and I believe the 1980 Olympic Games.  Correct me if I’m wrong.)  It was a lot of fun.  There were 30 total students and 8 adults.  The CSC has hands on exhibits that help make science fun.  They currently have a CSI (Crime Scene Investigation) exhibit based on the hit TV show.  The are three crimes that have been committed and your group is assigned to one of them to try and solve it.  It was exciting and the kids really got into it once they understood what they needed to do.  There were other many other exhibit also:  transportation, structural design, sound, the science of life, etc.  It reminded me of San Francisco’s  Exploratorium (another hands on science learning museum).

We wandered the museum from 10 to about 12:20 then we went downstairs where they have a McDonald’s, a Taco Bell Express, a pizza place called pizza π, and a Rose Garden Cafe (a soup, salad, and sandwich place).  The lines were long but we finally were able to eat.

After lunch we let the kids explore the gift shop, for about half an hour and we headed out and back to Bethel just before 2:00.  I definitely enjoyed the trip as did the kids.  However when I got home I took a two hour nap.  I really didn’t think I was that tired but it has been a long few days.  Here are some pictures from the trip.  Renae has a post up about the trip too if you want to know more.

Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich

For as long as I can remember I can not stand eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.  Yes that is right I utterly dislike the classic PB&J.  All of my family including Renae can attest to this.  Growing up, for lunch at school I would just have a jelly sandwhich, until after a few years of that I could not eat it that anymore becuase it was just to bland.  So I back away from jelly all together.  Ham and cheese seemed to suit me much better as long as there was no mayo or mustard on it, but that’s a different story since we are talking about PB&J.  I honestly could not remeber that last time I had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, until tonight when I got a suddent urge to eat a PB&J sandwich.  I have no idea what brought it on.  Renae was out hanging out with friends so there was not a need to cook a big meal, I thought about doing grilled cheese but I used the last of the cheese yesterday.  Then the urge hit, “I must have PB&J.”  So I pull out our Peanut Butter (chunky) and Jelly (Strawberry) and made a sandwich.  Honestly it was not that bad, slightly bland which I probably why I disliked it as a kid.  Well Renae just came home and she brought some food back for me, awsome. I Love You, honey.

Oh on a side note my little sister, Ruth, decdied to move away from here wordpress.com site and go self-hosted.  She is still running a wordpress installation.  Her new web address is http://thehonestruth.com Yes, it’s a play on word the honest truth, the honest ruth, pretty clever.  Renae’s cousin Jeremy thought of it.  Make sure you go visited her site and give her some comment love.

Barbecued Chicken

So for a month I’ve been trying to barbecue some chicken.  Tonight I was finally able too.  It has been a busy week.  A WASC  evaluation committee came and visited the High School, from Sunday through Wednesday.  Also on Monday through Wednesday of this week my class has had a 2 hour drama practices for the our play.  Then on thursday we practice for 4 hours and had our performance at 7:00 pm.  Friday was a normal day of school but then we had a youth came and worship night.  So I was really tired by the time we got home last night around 10:30 I was ready for bed, and I slept till noon.  I felt so much better.  When I got up we ran some errands and had in-n-out for breakfast well it was the first meal of the day. (3:oo) I had a 3×3 animal style no picles, fries and a dr. pepper.  We then ran to the apple store, and stater bros  Once back home I played on the wii for a little bit and then I decided to bbq some chicken.  here is was I did.

A Famous Brother

Okay so he doesn’t have his name on the walk of fame in Hollywood.  but he is featured in an article on his school’s website.  The article is called Scool in Pajamas?. My brother was really excited.  He goes to Maranatha Baptist Bible College and is majoring in Math Education with a minor in Digital Media (Something like that (yes I’m jealous (not about the math part))).  Any ways I thought I would just spread the word a little bit.  Make sure you visit Daniel’s site, DASH Prod, and congratulate him.  Have a great day.
