A Wonderful Evening!

Saturday night I attended the Chamber of Commerce Banquet - The Spice of Life Awards and was honored as Gilroys 2008 Educator of the Year! It was the most wonderful night of my life! I can't even describe how awesome it was!! I was so honored and thrilled that some of my family were there: my son Franz and his wife Serena, my sister Suzie, my husband Martin, my best friend Bevan , and many teachers from Antonio del Buono School and Gavilan Hills Academy where I teach. So many good friends! It meant soooooooooo much to me to see the people I love the best and work with at the dinner. I really was surprised at myself for caring so much but I really did. Some of my grandchildren were waiting at home with Cassie - Delaney, who has been staying with us for awhile and bringing lots of sunshine to our house!., MaCall and Eloise - they always make us smile, laugh and be happy too. What a weekend!!!! I wish they could have attended but it was strictly adults and I could see why - lots of booze all night long! But it was glorious! All I can say is THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!
