Glen Eyrie

Last week I was able to go on a field trip with Rebecca.  We went to the Glen Eyrie castle nestled over by Garden of the Gods.

General Palmer had the home built with incredible details and conveniences of the time period.  The castle has 24 fireplaces with vacuum hoses and a tower that suck the smoke out of the house.  The wood and rock work were beautiful.

Rebecca has LOVEd two people at school this year.  Her best friend, Neely is one, and her sweet teacher, Mrs. Vandewalker is the other.  Mrs. Vandewalker has been so good to Rebecca this year.  She even came to the District 20 art awards ceremony to watch Rebecca receive her award.  There aren’t too many teachers that give up their evening to come and support a student.  Rebecca’s face sure lit up when she saw her there.  They really have clicked this year!

So grateful for wonderful teachers that help my kids!
