Where has this year gone? I started wrapping presents last night - I'm determined I'm not going to be up at midnight before the day we have our Christmas exchange with the children this year! (At least I hope not!) Ben and I went to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert Sunday afternoon and it was so much fun! I've wanted to go for years, and was so http://janetspbj.blogspot.com/2009/12/december-is-here.html0jboltjes@lexington1.net (Janet Boltjes)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-981127256790003437.post-2300987565720643517Wed, 15 Jul 2009 20:55:00 +00002009-07-15T17:07:32.183-04:002009-JulyBenCaraleecruiseVBSI've just about finished all my shopping! At least I was until Kramer chewed up one of my white sandals. I was so aggravated with him. So now I have to spend some more time looking for another pair of white sandals - not what I wanted to do. I still have to get a hat of some sort, and I would love to find a pair of sunglasses that were like reading glasses, so I didn't have to wear the dorky pairhttp://janetspbj.blogspot.com/2009/07/getting-closer-and-closer.html0jboltjes@lexington1.net (Janet Boltjes)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-981127256790003437.post-8670638984999710867Thu, 09 Jul 2009 00:51:00 +00002009-07-08T21:00:02.853-04:00Ben and I have spent the day shopping for the cruise. I am so excited!! Although he has been before, this is my first real cruise. I'm experimenting a little with a blog, but I don't know if I will be able to post while we are on the ship or not. Gotta do some learning! I told Ben I would buy him dinner at Olive Garden if he would go to one more store with me.

My computer and scanner weren't being friendly to each other, so I had to use the old computer to scan. But I got it done, and created a label for the quilt. I cut out pieces of the fabric, scanned them, resized them and created a frame around the text. I was pleased with the way it turned out. Hope Caralee will eventually enjoy it.http://janetspbj.blogspot.com/2009/06/summer-time-and-living-is.html0jboltjes@lexington1.net (Janet Boltjes)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-981127256790003437.post-5636170150903989434Sat, 15 Mar 2008 03:35:00 +00002008-03-14T23:36:49.589-04:00Check out your hearing skills!

Soto (2004)Turner Buckminster moves to Phippsburg, Maine with his family in 1912 and immediately detests it! His father is the preacher and Turner is expected to be perfect! Wearing a white shirt with "enough starch in it to mummify two, maybe three, pharaohs..." was not Turner's idea of comfort! But when he meets Lizzie Bright, his life changes http://janetspbj.blogspot.com/2007/12/lizzie-bright-and-buckminster-boy.html1jboltjes@lexington1.net (Janet Boltjes)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-981127256790003437.post-4774145153555908319Thu, 04 Jan 2007 15:32:00 +00002007-01-04T11:30:38.153-05:00AASLeducationlibrariesSCASLOur students came back today, and it was so nice to see everyone and hear their enthusiasm! As I listened to the students talk about their Christmas vacation, I overheard lots of references to technology - iPods, jump drives, downloads, etc. As soon as the bell rang, these same students left to attend classes that will look remarkably like the classes their parents attended.
