Happy Last Day of School!

Whew! Got through another year. I hope next year isn't quite so hectic. But the summer is here now and I don't have to think about work AT ALL! Soo wonderful. Shannan has come over and we are having fun exercising and eating healthy. Its always better when you have someone doing it with you. We have pics of some stuff that I will post later. And yes Kelly, I am taking my medicine again. Its not fun, but I know its good for me. well see y'all later

Another play..I know...I'm crazy

So...my friend Patty and I are co-directing a teen mystery dinner theater play. We will be having rehearsals most Sundays throughout the summer. I think the cast is a bunch of very good kids, so it should be fun. So now we are doing a new kitchen, finishing the rest of the house, visiting Raul and Kelly lots, going to London, going to see Wicked, planning for nest year, and doing a play! What am I thinking! Well.. it will all work out :)
Now on to happier topics, tomorrow is the last day of school! Woo HOO!! But I still have lots to do and get it done before 1 o'clock tomorrow. whew. It will be crazy and fun and relieving. So that's that.

some pics

So, the cabinet guy gave us a front that is what our cabinets will look like and the counterrop guys gave us a chunk of Uba Tuba so we could pick out other colors...That is the WORST part! But, Daniel and I have settled on a color. It will be soft fern from Benjamin Moore. It will be lovely. Anyway, I took these so we could kind of get a SLIGHT idea of what the final product will look like. I am excited. It looks WAY better in person, but its cool.

Countertops

We are signing the papers for our GRANITE countertops TOMORROW!!!! I am so stoked! We were going to go with something less fancy, like a Corian or something, but I called these people and they are giving us SUCH and AWESOME deal I could not pass it up! So we are getting some fabulous counters and the beautiful edging and undermount sink are included. I wish my camera were working so I could take some pics for you guys. I should probably get some batteries tomorrow. Anyways I am so excited! And they are giving us such a good deal we are going to see if they will do a backsplash for us too! Our kitchen is going to be so shnazzy!

Kitchen Update

Our Cabinets Will be in by JUNE 5TH!!!!!!!! Woo Hoo. This is definitely happening!! Its just so exciting we are finally getting our kitchen. Its going to be P-I-M-P!!! Pics to come :)

Star Trek

We saw Star Trek last night, and I must say, I approve. It was pretty dope. Although there were a couple of times when Spock showed shades of Sylar. It was cool though.

Show Business

My kids had a performance this week. It went SUPER well. I was a little disappointed with the sound at points, but over all it was GREAT! And I am way proud of my students. Its going to be wierd not seeing them this summer. But a couple of them ar coming with me to London, and they are all coming with me to see Wicked in August. We should probably do some fundraisers for that. Hmm. Anyway Pics will be coming later

Spiritual Awakening

Last night, we went to the CES broadcast. Elder David A. Bednar was speaking. I always love his talks, but last night this one especially touched all of us. It was like he was speaking directly to our family. If you want to watch it, here is the link. It is lengthy but AMAZING!

Hilarious!

Okay, okay, I know it has been quite a while since I posted. Sorry, been busy and only a few things have been really exciting, but this is EXCELLENT! Last night we went to Barnum and Bailey's Ringling Brothers circus here in Lafayette. We had floor seats so we were kind of part of the action. SUPER DUPER close! It was awesome! And of course, before it started Daniel said, "If they ask for any volunteers, I am not doing it. Even if they ask me I will refuse. This is Daniel we are talking about. Everyone already knows :) So what happens in the circus? The guy doing the show comes up and shakes some people's hands and then takes Daniel's hand and puts it high above his head and tells him to hold it there for a minute...Then he asks for a volunteer!!!!! Oh my gosh it was the funniest moment EVER! Then my clever brother-in-law, Rick gets out his handy camera and starts recording it. It so SOOOO hilarious. You can hear Rick, my sister, my niece, and I laughing in the background!. Listen really closely. This guy was super funny! ANd it makes it even funnier because it was Daniel. You can view it on my page, but if you're having trouble, here is the website.
