Summer Time!

Even though it is bordering on cold here, 
it was the LAST DAY of school for Julia!
She and her fellow fifth graders danced to a Spanish tune wearing colorful sashes, swinging their hips and skirts for the audience (which seems to grow bigger each year).



After the Dance Festival we headed inside to grab the last of her stuff and try to get a picture of the kids who were also in the classroom and with Mrs. Hatch her amazing teacher. I wasn't too successful but at least Julia and Mrs. Hatch are looking in the right direction :)

It's hard to believe summer break is now underway... it probably won't feel like it until the weather warms up. I feel like we've been living in the Pacific Northwest the past month or so. 

Emily is still in school and working hard. The twiners are starting back up at Seven Peaks despite my trying to convince them they don't need to or have to work there. 

I will be teaching summer school the month of June...yikes. It was a last minute commitment.
 I hope I'm not completely crazy for doing it... a few school teachers, upon hearing I was teaching summer school, said, "Bless you." I don't know if this should concern me?!
 Perhaps it has to do with the fact that I'm the only one having to teach 4 different subject/content areas divided into groups of kids ranging from K-5th grades. It should be interesting and I'm looking forward  to gaining more practical experience.

In the meantime, I'm so most excited to have more FAMILY TIME!
