So, I haven't really been in the blogging mood lately! NOT that there isn't anything to blog about, maybe it is just my creative juices are all drained....I don't know!
But since I've started this post, I better finish it and finish it I will. :-)
This past weekend we did the rodeo concession at the High School Rodeo here in the DL. It was great fun, we didn't make a ton of money but the kids had a great time and the weather was beautiful!
T has been in track for the past month, he runs the 1miles, 800 meter, 400 meter and does the long jump too! He is doing great. He says he doesn't want to do track next year because it cuts into his making money time! Oh what a guy! Where did he come from! At his track meet last week, he took almost 20 seconds off of his mile time. I was so proud of him and thanks to Coach J for helping him out with his running strategies. He is not the fastest kid but man does he ever have heart! There are only 2 kids from DL that run the mile and the other kid wins all the races, so he calls him Ricky Bobby (from Talladaga Nights) and he calls himself Cal! I tell you what, the kids got a GREAT sense of humor.
E has been busy with Dance and softball now too. We never really slow down too much around here. She has her recital for dance in a couple weeks, can't wait to see what she has learned this year. She just started her season of machine pitch and she is a sure hitter just like her mom and brother. :-) Maybe I like softball so much because it was the only sport I was actually ever kind of good in. :-) I wanted to be good in sports, really I did.....just wasn't a huge priority...I guess. :-)
WE have the THREE little PIGS!
The kids both have their 4-H pigs and they are so cute. They are growing everyday. Why are little pigs so cute? T has one pig and E has two this year. This is her first year of actual 4-H and she loves it.
Since this is a completely random post...can I just add that I love working half days with my student and then subbing when I can. If you ever get the chance you should just work 1/2 days, it is GREAT! I am loving my "spring-time" schedule. Back to reality in June but I'll take this fun little work schedule while I can. :-)
Needless to say, life is good....busy as always. I look at our calendar and I wonder holy crap how can the summer be soooo busy. But we love it and we won't change a thing.
Already looking forward to going back "home" for the big Canada Celebrations on July 1st! Hm, craving a slurpee already. :-)
Here are some pics of the goings on around here.
