I haven't written in a while because I wasn't sure what to write. We haven't been too terribly busy this summer so we have all tried to relax mostly. John's grandmother died on Memorial Day. It wasn't a huge surprise to the family but you never want a family member to pass. She is in a much better place and not suffering anymore.
Since then nothing too exciting has happen except me and the kids going to Gatlinburg with my parents. Yes John stayed home. We went to the Wilderness at the Smokies and loved it! I think we have spoiled the kids and they will want to stay there everytime we go. The water park was extremely fun and I had to drag the kids out each day. It was a new experience to travel with my parents as an adult. I hadn't been on vacation with them since I was a child. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be so hopefully each year we can do something. It was nice for them to see how the kids are on vacation and how they have fun. We only stayed 2 nights and I wished we could have stayed one more. But oh well maybe next time.
The job search...I have interviewed with Robertson County. Also I interviewed with one principal. I am extremely hopeful that I get this job. It is slim pickin's out there right now. So I just have to be patient and wait. I pray and pray and I know that God will place me in the right school. So as soon as I know something about a job I will post again. I just hope it is soon because if you know me at all the anticipation is killing me and my anxiety about putting a classroom together in 2 days or less is really scary to me. I would do it though because it doesnt' matter what your room looks like it matters what you teach the kids and how you care for them.
Here are some pictures from our mini vacation (our real vacation is coming in October only 105 days left):
