Catching Up!

I forgot all about this blog thing I set up last year. I really do want to use it, but when you have to check two emails, facebook, myspace, etc. it is easy to forget. Some people are on facebook and others are on myspace so I feel like I need both even though I really like facebook much better. Who knows this may become my favorite form of communication?

Summary of events since I last posted. UIL at Bammel went great. First Sweepstakes in at least 12 years, the choir department was awarded a 3800 grant for a Projcect Rap Star, taught reading to 6th graders after school to help them pass the TAKS test. (all of them passed)!, attended a new festival for 6th graders, spring trips went well, and my assistant resigned.

Well on to the times. I am in Hurst and my parents house and have been for some time. Came on June 27th, I really wanted to be here with my family on June 30th. Mom and I went to Tyler to stay at our condo at The Villages with my only aunt, aunt-lin-law, and my 88 year old grandmother. We had a great time!!! I learned how to play 42 (a domino game), swam, antique shopped, played boggle (word game), and read. All in all it was a great trip. Lots of girl time.



We came home and I got to spend some quality time with Tristan, my almost 3 nephew. He is so cute and funny. We kept him over 4th of July weekend so his mom and dad could go away for the weekend. While he was here we went to the pool, the park, walked the dogs, played lots of good guy/bad guy, watched Justice League, and didn't get much sleep.

The end of the week (July 10-11)I attended Joy of Singing workshop for a day and a half. It was lots of fun and I got to sing over 125 new titiles and see some friends. On Friday night after I got finished the family and I went to eat at one of my all time favorite mexcian food places Uncle Julio's. It was so good!!!! Dad and I went to church on Sunday at FBC Euless and then Rebekah came over last night and we got in the hot tub and played boggle.

This week I will only be here a couple of days then off to see Nicole in Athens/Canton area. After that I must return to Houston to see if my cats are alive, pay bills, and do some work at my apartment.
The best part of the summer is coming, TCDA in San Antonio and then Gulf Shores with the fam.!!!!!! I can hear the beach waves now.......
