Can you say M.I.A.?

Holy Cow! I can't believe that I haven't blogged in weeks....actually I can!  Since the dance recital and field trippalooza we've had a birthday and Mother's Day.  School has been busy with the usual end of the year junk PLUS 3 extra random days off due to snow day makeups.  My student teacher recently left so I've been busy to say the least.  I don't for see myself blogging until summer when I can devote 100% effort to it, otherwise you get random babbling such as this.
Anywho, after this coming week I'm taking my oldest to the Taylor Swift concert then it'll be SUMMER!!!!
Enjoy the end of your year, hope you survive with a smile!

My Busy Busy Week

This week has been so crazy busy, I'm looking forward to passing out on the couch Sunday!  Here's a run down of my fun, exciting week...

Monday:
Monday I went with my 4th grade daughter to Walnut Canyon to go look at and explore ancient Indian ruins.  The day was perfect!  We had warm sunshine and 70 degrees!  Hey, I was even able to work on my tan while I hiked with the kids.

Tuesday:

Tuesday was our first grade field trip to Bearizona.  Bearizona is a wildlife park located about 30 mins. west of town.  At Bearizona you stay in your car (or school bus) and drive through the different habitats while the animals come right up to your windows.  After the drive thru part we watched the bird show then did the walk around trail where we say itty-bitty baby cubs that were born in January.  It was a little breezy but all of my kiddos LOVED the field trip.

Wednesday:

I actually had to work on Wednesday but I spent my evening, until bedtime, at school so my girls could take their dance pictures.  I love all of the costumes and how dedicated to dance both of my girls are BUT  Mommy was T-I-R-E-D!!!

Thursday:

Thursday I went to the Arboretum with my Kindergartener.  The weather was horrible! We were under a red flag warning day due to the terrible wind and low humidity.  Luckily I was on this adventure because after about 10 minutes off of the bus the wind caught her ear and she developed a horrible earache so we left the field trip and were off to the doctor....ear infection!

Friday:

And well, that's today and here I sit at dance dress rehearsal.  I finally got smart and brought my district issued laptop so I can use the internet for the next SEVERAL hours. Today was the school's talent show, of which my 4th grader was the MC so she's been practicing that shpeel all week.  After the talent show my class was off to the 4th grade Arizona Animal Walk.  The 4th graders spend close to a month researching AZ animals, they write reports and have to create a life size model of their animal.  Finally after school we held our Parent Volunteer luncheon.  

Saturday:

Tomorrow my girls have their dance recital, I look forward to tomorrow night when all of this will be past me and I will be in my warm comfy bed. 

I hope you all had a great week!  Cheers to 15 days of school before SUMMER!!!!
