spring break

ok, julie, i did this for you, so you'd better comment. :) spring break was good but exhausting. wedding planning is overwhelming, even when we want a simple wedding. now i'm feeling the normal homesickness coming off of a break. we had fun with dad and mom, trav, tami, and the boys, and many friends we were able to get in touch with. it's a little scary knowing this was the last visit before the wedding! so much will be changing soon and it's a little nerve-wracking. lots of prayers are appreciated!
today was a good day of getting back into a routine. on thursday morning, i take off with the 5th graders and their regular chaperone crew to rockport. we will camp there two nights and clean up the park. it's an ebenezer tradition and a good one. it will be three tiring days, but fun days.
only 8 weeks until school gets out. and no news in the job department. i feel like it hasn't hit me yet.
i hope this finds you all well. happy easter!

Thanks! I love the pics, and I still can't believe you're getting married. =) Camping with fifth graders? Not sure I could handle that one. LOL I'll be praying that all goes well, and that you get some job leads soon.
