No more music programs...no more school!



Well I am officially on vacationg for 2 weeks beginning today! I am so thankful for this time off. This kids were absolutely insane the last 2 weeks of school. The first grade music program is done and over with. I was really stressing out about the program because rather than the usual 5 days we get to practice on stage, they really only got 4 and I didn't have them practice the day of the program. In the end, they shocked me with the whole thing. They performed well for both the school and their parents without any major glitches. There was one little girl that threw up on the risers before we presented the program to the school, but we got her out and the show went on. Haha! The poor little girl was so nervous, her face looked like a ghost. I am SO relieved that it is over and hopefully that will be the last one that I have to do. I'm keeping my fingers crossed anyways.




Things have definitely been interesting these last few weeks. A lot of our friends have found out that they are pregnant and will be adding new members to their families in the upcoming year. Kyle's brother and his wife Tonia are expecting a little on at the end of June/beginning of August. Libby and Jesse are expecting in August also. And I just found out that my half-sister, Hilary, is having twins in August. There must be something in the water! I feel like I should jump on the bandwagon and get pregnant too! Our time will come soon enough though.




I am really looking forward to the holidays. I have had so much fun spending time with my family and my nephew Chase. He is growing up so quickly-getting teeth and crawling already! It's crazy! It's also amazing how quickly you can fall in love with someone that you've only known a short time. He brings such happiness to our lives. I can't wait to see how much he grows in the next year.




Zeke and Tucker are good! Awnry, and LOVING the little bit of snow that we've gotten so far! They go crazy, running all over the yard, and wrestling. We gave Zeke his first squeaky toy the other day and he was completely and utterly confused and freaked out! He's so funny! He's opened up a lot to everyone and is totally comfortable at home now.




We wish everyone a happy holiday! Enjoy the time with family and friends!
