Summer Vaca is Here!!

Summer vacation kicked off Tuesday with our annual Teacher Boat Party on Shelbyville Lake. It was a lot of fun and extra special because we had a retiree to honor! The weather ended up being better than expected. It rained a few times but luckily the party boat had a top over the picnic table/food area. I'm still trying to process that school is really done for the year. It seems more like Spring Break, but if you were to visit my classroom, it is definately Summer Vacation! Hard to believe I will be starting my fourth year in August... man how time flies! I'm getting to the point where I can't use the "I'm new" excuse which I kind of like.

I got a text yesterday asking if I was ready to start at the Park District on Monday. I thought I had a few more weeks to just lay around before I was needed to work job #2! I of course said that I will be there... I have a hard time turning down a chance to make some extra money! I may see if I can just work 8 - 1 so I will still have some good lay out time.

Doug and I took the pool cover off on Sunday. I'm impressed by how great the water looks! I just need for it to stop raining and get a little warmer so I don't have to swim in icicles! We haven't had any major encounters with Brother Bob yet... My fingers are crossed for a peaceful summer. He's been outside a few times and just kind of gives me the stare.... I'm fine with stares, I just can't tolerated the cussing madness! Luckily, he has been working at Kroger during the day and I'm praying for both our sakes he keeps up that schedule. After getting the pool all ready to go, my goal is to put up a nice, tall privacy fence all around our lot. I feel we owe our four-legged child that much this summer!

In a few hours my momma and I are heading to Seno Formal Wear to order our invitations. I think we picked out some good ones.... now I'm just hoping they are actually available to order. While deciding on how many invites to order, we also worked on narrowing down our guest list which was not an easy task. I think all our "major" wedding tasks will be completed after we get our order placed... Notice "major"... we still have a LOT to do! :)
