The end of 2010...

Wow, this year has gone by so fast. I can not believe it will be 2011 in a matter of hours. Where did the time go. We have had a pretty good couple of days around here. I passes my FTCE ESE exam, and then Chuck got recalled to go fly again!!! That is the best news possible!!! He will be flying for ATI!!! I know he is super excited about this and so are we.

I start back to school on Monday night, and the kids go back on Tuesday. I am so not ready to start classes, but this is my LAST semester of book work. In August I will get to intern and then the end of November I will finally be a REAL teacher...I am so excited. It has been a long road, and lots of hard work, but I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel!!!

Sommer just left to go to work, Hunter is in Georgia hunting, Zach is home with Chuck and me...such the boring life we lead!!! No big plans for tonight, just watch some tv and have some quiet family time. Tomorrow I need to get busy and try to clean my house. I have been saying that for months and never seem to get it done. I have just been so lazy this Christmas break!!!

I hope everyone has a safe and Happy New Year!!!

Twas the Day After Christmas...

And all through the house, all the creatures were stirring and moving about!! Christmas is over, and went by in a flash. All the time we spend finding just the perfect presents and wrapping them so merry and bright, all ends up in a heap on the floor in less than 30 minutes!! We had a great Christmas!! Sommer had to work Christmas Eve and did not get home until 8:30 p.m...the boys were going crazy wanting to open presents. We finally opened the presents and them sent everyone to bed to get ready for SANTA!!

On Sunday before Christmas my Uncle Tony passed away unexpectedly. He has been fighting cancer, but we were not expecting him to pass away so soon. His memorial was scheduled for today. My mom and I are going to drive to Texas in January, and go visit my aunt.

On Wednesday of this week I am talking my FTCE ESE exam. Once I get this one done I only have 1 more test to complete beore March. This is my last semester of book work and then in August I will intern, and then FINALLY be done!! Next year at this time I will be a real teacher - I hope I find a job!!

Christmas break has gone by way too fast for me. I have gotten nothing done I had planned to do. Oh well. There is always tomorrow!!

Off to pick things up, and then read!! More later.
