3 1/2 more weeks and school is officially out for the summer! Today was our last (finally) day of state testing, my precious little 3rd graders had to take a 2 hour IQ test this morning that was actually... kind of hard. They did their best and were completely worn out by the end of it, so for the afternoon we had a cookout with yummy grilled hot dogs and watched the movie Barnyard. They loved it and we got to relax a bit. Tomorrow we're taking the 3rd, 4th and 5th graders swimming at the pool at BGHS, so they are pumped about that. Almost there...
Seth has this Friday off for the first time in probably 3 or 4 months, so we are going to have date night! I can't wait. Shopping Friday afternoon for things around the house, dinner, then out with friends afterwards for good conversation and fun (not to mention a b-day celebration for Elizabeth)! Being a grown-up is hard a lot of the time, but it has its perks. Hard work pays off and life is nothing without faith, family, and good friends.
I considered blogging about the recent joys (Will & Kate's wedding), tragedies (tornados in AL) and... well whatever you want to call OBL's death. But at the moment, all of that is a bit heavy for me. Maybe I will have more to say next time I log on, but for now, I will marinate in my own thoughts and let you marinate in yours. After all, the longer you marinate the juicier the meat.
