A Quick Update

Been a while so I figured I would post new information.  I have started to move into my new room. All my stuff and boxes are there, just waiting for the previous teacher to finish cleaning out. I did unpack my desk stuff today.  My new Smartboard arrived. My new principal has put in a work order for the other whiteboards to be moved around, install the Smartboard AND a ceiling mounted short throw projector!!  So cool. 

Just got back from Spokane yesterday. My wife had a conference over there so figured take the kids and let them enjoy the weather. First day was good. 2nd day was wonderful. Yesterday...not so good. 55 degrees and raining hard, all day. Weird.  We did manage to find 3 triple D's to eat at though!

Logan made the all-star team for baseball so he has been practicing every single night. Now to see how they do this weekend and beyond. The district tournament goes until the 7th - if they play for the championship to go to state. Problem is we leave the 6th for Orlando.  So I hope we don't end up with a dilema at the end. 

One thing I have figure out about summer. Too much time on my hands to think about next year's vacations.  So in my spare time I have found great deals for Washington DC.  We have always wanted to take the kids to give them a better appreciation of our nation's history and culture. They are now old enough (we hope) to appreciate this adventure.  Already put in the paper work to apply for a White House tour. And then I decided to treat myself and my wife to a cruise. No kids on this one!  Again going with friends to cruise the Southern Caribbean.  New cruise line so we can compare to what we have experienced before.  My present to myself for completing the hoop jumping.

I will try to remember to post from Orlando and hopefully have some fun things to report. At the moment I am preparing for 85 - 90 degree weather, rain showers daily, and humidity right around 90 percent or higher.  Hopefully no hurricanes will hit Florida while we are there. What the heck was I thinking when I decided to go to Orlando in July???????
