Yesterday and today I have been taking down my room and cleaning at school - nothing too fun. It is fun to see my kids when they come in and say hi though! That makes my day!
Tonight we didn't have small group, so I came home and worked on my quilt more. It's taking forever! IT's fun though. The problem is that I could probably stay up really late each night working on it, but I need to sleep! Last night I stayed up past midnight to work on it, and this morning I was soooo sleepy!

Today was pretty fun, except for my way to school wasn't the best. It started to pour down rain when I was almost there, and by the time I got there, there was a river flowing through the parking lot. By the time I got into the building my shoes, socks, and pants were soaked and I spent the rest of the day trying to dry myself out! I took down everything from the walls in my classroom today. It was pretty sad. But then tonight I have been working on my quilt, and I am very excited about it! I decided that I wanted to make it bigger, so it's taking longer, but it's fun!

May 29, again
Graduation went great! The kids did a GREAT job! We did a program about racing. My kids are so very talented! i am just so proud! And a little girl who had been afraid to get up in front of an audience actually sang her duet!! It was the highlight of my night! I had prayed with her a lot about it, and she did it! The Lord is good, and He always keeps His promises! I will miss my kids. They're so wonderful!

Wow, what a busy weekend! Ryan spent Thursday-Sunday morning in California for our friend Mike's wedding. Meanwhile, I spent the weekend making a quilt! It was very fun! Poor Ryan got very little sleep the whole weekend. He didn't sleep at all from Saturday at 6:00a.m. to Sunday at 12:00p.m. Then he crashed a slept from then until the next morning after 9:00.
Monday was our anniversary! Two years! I sure love being married! It's the best! We had a fun anniverary. We went to see Shrek 3 and went to dinner. It was great!
Today is Kindergarten graduation. SO far it's been a super super busy day. I came in this morning to find my binder with all of my scripts and everything missing, so I searched all morning for it until school started. Finally someone found it, after lots of prayer! Praise the Lord! It was stressful and from then on I have been a little frazzled. Tonight is the big night though. I will miss my kids. They are wonderful! I'll let you know how it goes!

This week is still super busy for us. school is winding down, and there's still a ton to do before graduation! Tonight we went to a chiropractor. They had done X-rays on us a few weeks ago. It turns out my spine is crooked and my kneck is straight (it should be crooked!) So now we are making some decisions on what to do about that. It's good program that teaches you all about how God designed the body to heal itself, and deisease and sickness comes from the flow being interupted from the brain to the rest of the body. It's a lot more complictated than that, but that's the short version. Anyways, we'll see where it leads. Me personally, I have not had good experiances with chiropractors, so it scares me a little. Ryan thinks it might be good though.

Yesterday and today were great days! Ryan spent the day yesterday at the library again, but he finished a lot. Then last night we got to relax. I got lots of work done yesterday, I am very proud of myself. I got my sewing machine out, and I cna't fingure out how to use it right! I think something's wrong with it. My goal is to learn how to make a quilt, but the first step is to figure out how to use the machine!
Today we were at church for a long time. This afternoon was a graduation thing that we had to run sound and video for. Ryan and I had to run all four cameras and sound all by ourselves. Ryan did most of the work, I ran a camera only. Church thismorning was good though. I enjoy the times when I don't have lights and I get to sit and listen to the service. They're doing a series on Spiritual gifts right now with the theme "Heroes" the TV show, and Ryan did the greeting this morning and he wore a blanket to look like a cape. It was very funny!

Tonight was beautiful! The sunset was wonderful, and we went on two walks tonight, which was fun! Today was another busy day. Ryan spent at least 8 hours in the library working on a paper, and after work I headed up to Frisco. A friend of ours is a music teacher and her kids were having their end of the year musical, so I went. They did a great job! When I got back Ryan was still at the library so I went and met him there and we walked back together. It just was a lovely evening outside!
I'm very thankful that right now things are perfect and peaceful. Life isn't always like that, but right now, even with all the business, it's peaceful. I don't know if that makes any sense, but to me it does. The Lord is great! We have so much to thank Him for!

Today is Ryan's birthday! He unfortunatly had to go to school for half the day and work the other half of the day, and then he had to be the cow at Chick-fil-a, and then he had a discipleship meeting, and then he had homework. But at least I think he enjoyed being the cow! I made him cookies because he didn't want a cake and I made him a pie last week. Tomorrow we're going to celebrate his birthday with dinner. He wants French Toast!

TOday was a fun day! I think my favorite part was when our friends ran out of dishwasher soap for their dishwasher and they put in half regular dishwahing soap, and their dishwasher bubbled all over their kitchen! It was very funny! The suds wouldn't stop coming out of the dishwasher!
And today also one of my kindergarteners who has clearly seen Pirates of the Carribbean yelled out "Where's the rum?!" I laughed very hard, I'm sure he doesn't even know what rum is. It was very funny!

Today was Ryan's last day of school! Yeah! He is finished! He did great on all of his exams too! I am so proud! Also he had a dentist appointment today and it's over, so he's home free! What a great day for him!
This week is teacher appreciation week at school. It's so great to feel appreciated! Sometimes I think that people have no idea how hard it is to be a teacher. I have felt loved and appreciated this week though!

My trip to WV went well this weekend! The wedding was great! It was great to see Erica get married!
On the way back we got about 45 mninutes into our plane ride and they said we had to turn around because the plane was shaking and they didn't know why, so that was scary, but we got back safely and they found us another flight back. I'll write more about the whole weekend tomorrow. For tonight I am headed to bed. I woke up at 3:00 thismorning.

May is such a fun month! There's so much going on in May! It's almost as good as February! School was good today. Two of my kids got in trouble though, and they are two of the kids that never get in trouble. It's hard to punish them when they are usually so good. It made me sad. It always makes me sad when any of them get in trouble, but it was really sad today. I suppose it will prepare me for when I have my own kids and have to punish them.
Ryan got me flowers yesterday! They're in our living room and they are so pretty! Husbands who are reading this, go buy your wife some flowers. They will make her smile.
