Good News...

No...It's not May 15th yet...but....

On April 24th I, and many other teachers got a letter informing us that we get our jobs back!! A ton of teachers took the early retirement incentive and they laid off some support staff. A lot of people are still losing jobs...but at least the kids are taken care of! Sooooo excited!


Nothing much else to report. I went to SLO for a short trip this past weekend. It was an awesome time with my SLO fam. Love them.
Be praying for us up here....Testing starts tomorrow...and so goes the beginning of our fate for next year. God is good and will provide...but some extra prayer can help their little brains!

A quick time to catch up!

First, please be praying for my mom. She's in the hospital figuring out some stomach problems she's been having.

Sorry for the lack of updates! I haven't had any new pictures, since I still don't have a new camera. But...by popular demand, I'm here to update you on the job situation. On May 15th, I will hear about my job, officially. However, I just got a letter from the Union saying that it is their understanding that the district is going to take back a lot of pink slips, so that is good news for me. I'm not going to get my hopes up, but the future is looking good. And, I will be teaching summer school... :( so sad about not sleeping in every day over the summer!



Now for other things. LOTS of things are going on right now. Today is the first day I've gotten to rest in months. I'm going to school on Monday and Wednesday nights and doing homework all weekend. As busy as school keeps me, I LOVE it. I have been learning some awesome things that have really helped me improve my teaching. I'm looking forward to the school part being over.





A couple weekends ago we had Julie's wedding shower and bachelorette party. It was tons of fun. I can't believe the wedding is in 3 weeks! So crazy. Looking forward to it though. I'm waiting for my dress to be done so that I can try on everything together! May brings lots of fun things. My parents are visiting, the wedding, home for Missy's graduation, Sacramento to visit college friends and Yosemite with church. Yeah...every weekend...crazy. Hope you are all doing well!
