It's Official!

Well, it's official! We recently found out that we will for sure be heading down to St. Thomas at the end of July! My parents are flying me and Philip down to spend a week with the Klaver family--just the 6 of us! I can't tell you how excited we are to finally see what my family has been talking about.

17 days until the kids leave school for the summer, and I am counting down the hours. SOL testing begins on the 31st, and I swear my students have been hit with a case of the stupids. I am totally freaking out about it. It seems that the kids are only motivated by food and treats. I've officially given in and am now disobeying school system rules--they're getting treats! I really don't care anymore. They need to pass the tests! One REALLY good thing about school being done (besides getting my sanity back) ---once school is over, my Emily and her husband will be moving back to this area. I can't wait for Em and Aaron to be back here! I miss my Emily time!

Finally, my good friend Schawann invited me to Langley Air Force Base tomorrow to participate in some sort of "cardio party" thing. Schawann and I are going to work our little tails off at the Langley gym, taking some classes and such. I'm quite excited. I like having a workout buddy! Yaay Schawann!

Ok, that's all for now....
