=Laurie's Sand Box filled with "Beachy" Ideas =

Introduction:
My name is Laurie Elliott and I am an assistant teacher in the 5th grade at Pace Academy. I also teach 4th grade computer classes. I am married to the amazing Mark Elliott and I have four wonderful children. The oldest is 26 and the youngest is 15 (the baby is keeping us young).

Some of my FAVORITES...

 * 1) Spending time with my family... I love it most when all the kids are home with me and my husband.
 * 2) Growing flowers and working in the yard... very excited about my first tomato plant-it is about 6 feet tall now and the tomatoes are finally ripening!
 * 3) Going to the beach... visiting my parents at Isle of Palms, SC
 * 4) My Pace Academy teaching team
 * 5) Reading good books... mostly fiction by Pat Conroy, Ferrol Sams, John Grisham, Nelson Demille, and many others
 * 6) Learning cool new things that I can use with my students
 * 7) Great food... all kinds of good stuff

==Burning Question:  Why is it that the older I get, the shorter summer gets? ==
