Today was the last day of the semester! Hypothetically, this means I now have time to do other things, like write on our long-neglected blog. Yay! I'm not even sure anyone out there still reads this, but here we are.
My first year of grad school feels like a whirlwind. It went by so so fast; it's unbelievable. I've learned a lot (more than I thought I ever needed to learn!) and hopefully taught some things, too (since I was teaching English!). This summer will be spent taking classes, and preparing my syllabus and schedule and lesson plans for English 2010 in the Fall.
This summer is also a summer of projects (or, so planned). I have some things on my mind I want to accomplish, mostly home improvement/decorative little things. I'll post update emails to show you all what I've got going on over here.
We also have a trip to St. George planned for the end of June (Justin's anniversary present to me) and I'm so excited about that! We haven't been back for four years, and I really miss it. I'm scared to see how much it's changed (I hear it has changed quite a bit).
Justin's softball league starts in two weeks, which we're all really excited about. The kids and I love going to the ball park to watch him play. Jude and Ciaran run around with their friends, Amelia and Jace, and I get to sit and chat with Annie. Their team name this year is "Ima Hufflepuff" (previously named "Loganlicious"). :)
We also signed Jude up for tee ball this year. The league is actually for 5 and 6-year-olds, so we'll see how it goes. He's been hitting off a tee forever, so I think he'll do great!
Speaking of projects, I'm working on a version of this for our house:

For what she calls the "memory verse" section on the board, I want to do children's poetry, since poetry is kind of important to me (I'm doing a poetry thesis for school). Here are some that I've made so far:
So cute, huh??
That reminds me, anyone have a laminator I can borrow?
