Summer Make or Break

   Memorial Day weekend we all went to Valpo to see Silas and Paul and celebrate Jane's 65th birthday. We enjoyed our time and hospitality on a hot 90+ temperature weekend. The last two weeks of school I took over Mrs. Farren's third grade class as her sub Ms. VanSteel was let go due to too much classroom management problems. We worked on stability and still finishing off academically work that the other teachers helped to plan. Last Saturday Jane and I went to Holland's Windmill Park for Hannah's wedding. The ceremony was outside at 5:30 and it was sunny and over 80 degrees with the reception there in the site's tent. We stayed until 10 and had a great time with family. Yesterday was the last day of school and after the 4th grade walk through the Elmwood teachers met at Renos West. I was the first to get there and soon found the teachers from Cumberland were also having their gathering there. I had an appointment with Dr. Bill to remove 5 skin tags and growths at 2:00, so I could only stay an hour. Lukas and I went downtown to Artpath at 6:30 and walked along the River Trail to see some of the exhibits and stop at the Lansing Center for 2 free samples of Lansing Brewing beer. Jane and I will be able to go to Silver Sneakers to keep us busy this summer. Time to take some time together.
