SCHOOL IS OUT!

Summer Time is here. We offically ended the 2008-2009 school year. Yes, we made it through. This last month was a dozy. Blakely went to Craters of the Moon on Wednesday. She had to be at the school at 6 a.m. and didn't get home until 6 p.m. They hiked and walked through caves. She enjoyed going on the field trip. Katelyn had field day on Monday in 85-90 degree weather. It was hot. She ran her little heart out. I even did the high jump to show off to the first grade boys. The P.E. teacher said I cleared it by a foot(whatever!), I'm just glad I didn't make a fool out of myself.
I have felt on the downhill slide for the last month. So now it is time to play alittle catch up in my life. I still need to finish up my classroom on Tuesday, but other then that we are done. We usually go out to dinner on the last night of school to celebrate, but this year the youth in our stake were invited out to Grouse Creek to a barn dance.(12 and up.) Blakely and I headed out about 5 p.m. It takes about an hour to get there on twisty back roads. The Grouse Creek branch did such a nice job. They had dinner cooking when we got there. They had questions on a sheet of paper. You had to go around and ask 12 people who were not in your ward different questions. If you filled this out you got to put your name in a drawing for prizes. They had a live band and they taught everyone how to swing and do a line dance. Blakely danced almost every danced. She had a great time. We got home close to midnight. Shawn stayed with the other childern. We did go out to eat Saturday night after working the children all Saturday. When asked what the kids wanted to do this summer the reply was swimming. Good Luck to those finishing up school. It's summer Time!
