They had left a tape recording of my students screaming for my help....and some ominous laughter in the background. Our first (very well written) clue led us down the interstate to the Sonic on Winchester. Here we were suppposed to order two "fortuntelling" drinks. (MEDIUM drinks.) The waitress brought out our drinks and another clue.The next clue (a beautifully-drawn map) led us to a vacant parking lot where we found a clue that sent us to the Hobby Lobby in Germantown. Here we
were supposed to find "our scrapbook." This took us a while because I am obviously blind as a bat! When we finally found it, we found the next clue inside that directed us to a Germantown subdivision clubhouse. When we arrived we found all 12 of my sixth grade students, lots of parents, and the whole Smith family!! The students had made lots of food, decorated the room, and had been busy making scrapbook pages for my new Hobby Lobby Scrapbook that I had just received.And as if the scavenger hunt, party, and the scrapbook were
not enough, I was then presented with a $200 gift certificate to the Richmont--our favorite Bed and Breakfast in the in East Tennessee.Every one had such a great time---It was certainly one of the most memorable and most exciting birthdays of my life!!
Even Jonathan and Andrew got a special treat that night.......They were offered Grizzlies/Lakers tickets for that night's game. They went and had a great time!! Special thanks to all my students for writing such great clues, making such great food, and designing those precious scrapbook pages!! Thanks to Meg for the GORGEOUS cake that she made......to Tammy for the scavenger hunt....... to Paula and Tammy for all the scrapbooking supplie
s.....and to Brian and Sherri for securing the clubhouse!! I love you all so much!!
Thanks for a great 33rd Birthday!!
