Update

Matt and I have been really busy for the last couple of months. We both have been struggling with allergies, which completely took away my voice, and gave Matt a ton of coughing attacks. Things are finally starting to settle down, and I am now off track for 2 1/2 weeks, so that should be fun!

Here are a couple of things that have happened in the last few months:

We went to St. George over Easter break with my parents. It was a lot of fun, and a much needed weekend of relaxation for me and Matt. My mom and I shopped a lot, and Matt and my dad played golf at least once (sometimes twice) a day. It was a blast! Matt and I even painted eggs for Easter. It was a lot of fun. Thanks Mom and Dad for letting us crash your party.

My class had their annual Wax Museum, which is always a lot of fun. They do a biography book report, and then dress up like their character and stand as if they are wax next to a tri-fold that has information about their person. It is always a big moment in third grade, and this year it ended up being a little more exciting than we had planned. We usually have our Wax Museum in the gym, but this year the 6th grade needed the gym for their Shakespeare play, so we decided to have the Wax Museum in the 3rd grade hallway. We didn't expect to have as many parents and students coming through our museum, and it got so hot in the hallway that kids started dropping like flies!! We had 3 kids completely pass out and fall to the floor, and a handful of students started feeling really sick. Needless to say, we won't have our Wax Museum in the hallway ever again!! I felt so bad for the kids that passed out, especially my student who fell face first onto the floor. It was definitely an experience I won't soon forget.

Matt is loving his job! He loves the responsibility that comes along with his position, and he loves it when he gets to be in charge. I am so glad to see him do something everyday that he loves! He is also loving school. At the beginning of the semester he kept telling me that he didn't feel like he knew what was even going on in his class, but everytime he takes a test, or turns in a project he gets a wonderful grade. He rocks!

This last week was teacher appreciation week at school, and I was SPOILED with gifts!! I received a ton of supplies, money, and gift cards! It was awesome. Our PTA was great too and bought us all lunch from Rumbi, and had the students write sweet notes to us to hang in our classroom. It was a great week, and I felt very appreciated.

That is all the updates I have as of right now. I'll try to be better at updating. . .
