Week 2

Another week is done. It is Sunday night and I am ready to go for week 3. This will be a hectic week with PD and sub plans on Wednesday, and IPP day on Friday. I am hoping to hear all my kids read this week and set some goals with them for their reading. As for the home front, we are well. We spent a good chunk of the weekend setting up our new turtle tank and stand. It's so nice now! Hopefully they don't eat too many rocks! We also went to the funeral for little Thomas. What a sweet little one he was. His parents are amazingly strong and faithful! It was a good opportunity to reflect on the importance of loving and forgiving everyday. Until next week, be good, play fair and have fun!

A long time coming...

Wow! It's been almost an entire year since the last post. I am going to try to use this as a journal of sorts. Here is a quick update on our last year:
- Dog is now Huge! We love him and he is just adorable - even if he cries when we stop to visit people on our walks. :)
- Half our basement is now renovated! Hooray for laundry rooms that aren't in the bathroom! Lovely job Wolsey Works. 
- We finished a school year and have started a new one!
- I went to Atlanta for a conference this summer trying to learn how to better teach reading and writing. 
- We spent a week in Fairmont with the Gilson family and it was a very relaxing and fun week. 
- one nephew and one niece have been added to the family. Beau Baker and Nia Haggarty. We love them both!
- We continue to love high school and our students' sports. We go to whichever town promises the most exciting match-up for football, basketball, hockey and baseball. Cheap date nights! lol


I can't really think of anything else. We are happy, we love our lives and our jobs. We are grateful for our health and the blessings that sneak up on us. 

Cheerio,
Jules
