As I look back upon my week, I realize that my life is pretty mundane. But, that is OK. School, kids activities, and church work are the highlights. I was able to watch alot of basketball though. This time of year is the best! The NCAA tournament started on Thursday and the boys high school tournament also finished this weekend. My Fighting Illini was supposed to play on Thursday night, but they chose not to show up!
My family is doing a bracket for the tournament and Joel is in the lead. It is amazing ~ the kid has no clue as to who should win, yet he has the best bracket so far. And Marilyn is a very close 2nd. She also has no clue. I am in 4th place, and I think I have a clue (key word: THINK).
School is plugging right along. I hope the kids will be wrapped up for the year by mid-May. We have testing during the 1st week in April, but otherwise, we are not taking any breaks until we are done. That's right ~ no Spring Break for my kids. If you see them and wonder why they seem unhappy, that could be the reason! Well, probably not. They don't get the fake holidays either. You know the fake holidays: President's Day, Veteran's Day, Count Pulaski Day (an IL holiday ~ I'm not kidding!), Arbor Day, etc. What they are really looking forward to is when they get a break from piano. Oh, the horror of practicing every day. I'm such a cruel mom.
Thursday night I spent the night at the twins club meeting. Here are a couple of pictures from it. Marsie is our President. She is alot of fun and has great energy!
These girls were at my table. Also alot of fun, as you can tell. I told them I was going to blog them ~ see, Sue, I am not a liar! :-}
Friday morning we helped in the Moppets ministry at church. This is a construction project by Joel. Maybe he will be an architect or an engineer. Pretty creative for 10 yrs. old.
Happy Spring!

Love the new look!
