Only two more weeks of school until our two week break. The county I teach in is on an extended calendar year meaning that we go to school for 9 weeks and have 2 weeks off for fall break, christmas break and spring break and then we have about 6 weeks in the summer. I love this schedule!! The first week we're going on the cruise so we're all getting really excited about that! The kids have never been on a cruise before. Darin and I went on one for our honeymoon and loved it. It's so relaxing...we're going with a few other teachers and their families so we're all looking forward to it.
Spring sports are starting up for us. I'm coaching track and we started practicing a few weeks ago. I really enjoying coaching these kids and luckily I'm getting most of my kids back from last year. Darin is getting ready for spring practice with football so that keeps him busy after school. Austin is finishing up wrestling and will start baseball soon. That kid is so busy...but he needs it!! I don't know what we would do if he came home with all that energy everyday!! Erin and Gavin are doing well too. Erin is studying for her learner's test and is eager to turn 16 in the fall. She didn't really show much interest in getting her learner's license until she realized that she had to have it for at least 6 months before she can get her drivers license! She's doing really well in school and loves singing in the choir. Gavin can almost write his name!! Poor guy hates practicing it. I asked him the other day to write his name for me and he said "no...you do it." I guess a "G" can be pretty hard to a 4 year old.
I went back to the dr today for a check up and he's decided that I really need to have that cyst removed. Looks like the second week of Spring break I'll be back in surgery...but hopefully this one won't be as bad!! He said the cyst has grown and he's afraid it won't go away on it's on. I'm sure it's nothing too serious. My doctor just wants to get it taken care of as soon as possible. I will keep you updated on how it goes...
Other than that, everything is great! We are so ready for this winter weather to be OUT OF HERE!!!! I'm ready for the spring...big time!! Bring on the allergies...
