Truffle!

For the last day of school, the kids always get out early and the teachers either go out to eat or do a little pot luck. I signed up for dessert and couldn't decide what to do, but this is what came out! It turned out way yummy! I almost forgot to take some out for Ben and when I realized it was almost gone! He better like it!

Backyard Patio/Firepit

When Ben found out he didn't have to go back to school until June 6th, we decided to work on a little patio/firepit project. We aren't finished, but here's a little fiew of what we have started. I'm so excited to see the end product! Ben has worked so hard on it!

Graduation

I had to whip up some graduation cards last Wednesday, but they turned out pretty good for as quick as they were done. With only 7 senior graduating, I tried to make them all unique.

Sunday Dinner

We wanted to have Brooke and Phil over for dinner and we had a whole bunch of rice and beans that Ben had made, so we decided to do Cafe Rio style burritos and follow it with fried icecream for dessert! It was amazing! The kids were hilarious playing. Here's Chase showing his love for clomping around in big people shoes!

Well, I would say it's a bitter sweet moment, but it's not...just sweet. We are so happy to have sold our trailer.

Knock out!



Well, I decided even though I wasn't feeling great to go to work, by the time I got ready and got to work, I was exhausted. I ended up just making lesson plans for the day and making a doctors appointment, only to find out that I have strep! The good news is that since I took the day off, I was able to come home and sleep for about 5 hours along with the other 2 hours I spent on the couch watching the Green Hornet. I wasn't totally unproductive though! I decided to put together the flowers I bought a little while back. They are really neat and I'm hoping this will add a little more to the office!
