Summer!

Summer has finally arrived for M and I! We have created a reasonable list of things we would like to do this summer together. Here is a preview:
1. Welcome uncle C home from deployment
2. Have ice cream (this was all Sis!)
3. Visit at least 2 different pools with slides
4. Visit aunt K
5. Go to build a bear
6. Go to the crayola restaurant
7. Enjoy picnics
8. Take lots of pictures
These are a few things we hope to accomplish this summer!

God is good for my gift of teaching that allows me to influence children all year long and the opportunity to minister to my family and have summers off too!

Enjoy your shades and flips!

My first quilt!

This is an eye spy quilt I made with lots of scraps from lots of people! A good friend from Manhappiness helped me with this project and I LOVE the way it turned out!

April has come and gone!

I can hardly believe that my school year ends in just a few short weeks! I love the sights, smells, and activities of both spring and summer.
I am looking forward to a few things in particular. First off, my sweet brother C is graduating from high school. C is a huge inspiration and close friend as well as brother. God is already using him and I can't wait to see all that God has for him in the next few college years for him!
I am also gearing up for princess camp with my senior high girls. I feel like the current teenage generation has more problems and issues than ever before. My goal of princess camp is to help them find self worth knowing they are the daughter of our heavenly king! I also want them to know that God has given me an undying love foe them! I am praying for their hearts already! And my staff lineup is amazing!
The thing I am most excited about is my summer off with Sis! We re going to go swimming and library trips. We are looking forward to camp, the zoo, and various other day trips full of sun and picnics!
I hope you can celebrate spring and summer too!
