School is almost out!!!! Teenager officially!!

HOORAY!!!! SCHOOL is almost OUT!!! We have our last day (half day) of school on June 18th. That is a long time to wait, you may say, but we do not start until after Labor Day.

I am excited to be finished with school. The girls and I will be going to Utah for about 4 weeks or so. Jeff, unfortunately, has to stay behind because of work & school.
:-(
We will miss him!!

Jolyn will start 8th grade next year, that seems crazy. Only one more year after that and we move into HIGH SCHOOL!!! YIKES!!! We have an official teenager in the house, so beware!! :-) Jolyn has reached the ripe old age of 13 yrs.
Does this mean there is more emotions than usual???

Jalani will be in the 4th grade. We should find out tomorrow or next Friday who her teacher is for next year. We have 4- 4th grade teachers, at Washington elementary.
Mr. Gillespie, Mrs. Forster, Ms. Lyon, and Mrs. Detweiler.

I have been busy with substituting and volunteering at Washington. Plus, all my stuff at home.

Last weekend May 30-31st, we celebrated Jolyn's birthday, with a sleepover. I took the girls (5) to the drive-in, in the back of Jeff's pickup truck. We saw
"Horton Hears a Who", and "Nim's Island". they were both cute films.
The next day we went to the mall with some of her friends, and she finally got her ears pierced. She chose emerald earrings. She is liking it so far, I think. But is going to be anxiously counting down the 6 months till she can wear dangling earrings.

Not much else exciting going on here. We went to a Chamber Choir concert from the High school Tues. night. It was very enjoyable. Tonight is a Percussion Performance at the High School. That should be good, also.
Looking forward to June 18th.
Happy Summer!!!! :-) :-)
