Stressed!!!!

The end of a school year is always stressful! My classroom is a disaster and I'm trying to find papers that students swore they turned in, collect books, get grades done, clean and organize so I can leave on June 3 and be done with school!

The house is a disaster, but it was actually looking pretty good over the weekend and now it's a disaster again! We've been busy all week with karate, end of school carnival, and a faculty dinner.

AND the big news is Riley is getting baptized on June 4 at 10am, the day after school gets out! (You are welcome to come and join us!) So that adds even more stress to the pile! Trying to get my house spring cleaned is not easy! We don't have much family coming in town, but it still stresses me out and having a gathering for lunch, stresses me out even more! I am not a caterer or party planner. In fact, both boys who have had birthdays so far this year did not get a cake! How mean am I?! I just can't do it! So I need to remember what is most important...the ordinance of Riley getting baptized! Who cares if the house isn't clean enough for my family and Ryan's family! They already know I suck at cleaning, so what's another day of a messy house! (I'm blogging during my lunch break at school, so I'm not actually neglecting my house cleaning duties at the moment!)

We have seen numerous blessings come about lately as well...Ryan was supposed to go to Boise for work on June 1 and 2, but his boss didn't buy his plane ticket in time, so he's not going until June 6 and 7, so at least I'm done with school! Riley has had a great time off track. Brock has been sleeping really well at night which has been a huge blessing! I'll get a small raise next year for work, but insurance costs did go up, but at least I'll have money to pay for it! We have lots of fun pictures to post of Riley's birthday celebration at Boondocks and the daycare carnival for Tyler and Brock, but I don't think I'll be able to post those until my house is spic and span! I'm sure the next 2 weeks will go by fast and I hope that I can enjoy it!

Captain Jack Sparrow!



One of the hi-lights from our Disneyland trip was meeting Captain Jack Sparrow! We had just gotten off the pirates of the caribbean ride and were trying to find our stroller, when we were shocked to see Jack Sparrow! And the line was way short! So we got in line to meet him and man, he looks just like him! He never talked, but he would look at you funny and do some random things. The boys thought he was hilarious and the adults couldn't believe that it wasn't the real Johnny Depp!
