8 days...

left of school. This year more than any other, I'm ready. The last few weeks I've been dealing with data getting necessary paperwork done. The only problem with that is that I'm doing something new--paperwork that's never been done by the 7-12 TAG person before. So with this years juniors, I'm entering data from when they were in 3rd grade!! Once I get caught up (hopefully this summer), it'll be easy to just do updates, but it's a lot of work until I get to that point.

We have few plans for the summer. When people ask me, I say that I'm planning on going to the park :) Jack might have to get tubes--he's on round 3 of antibiotics in the last month--and we go to see an ENT on June 21. I wish they could get us in sooner, but the ENT that was in Waverly full time has now left, so we have to see a dr. that travels between W'loo and Waverly, so it's harder to get in...oh well.

We're shooting to get to St. Louis early this summer--we'll be in touch, Nehres, on dates soon. Dan is probably going to play in the CF Community Band, teach some lessons and is detasseling again this year. One thing I'm really excited about our summer is that we've joined a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture)--Faux Farms--we pay for a share and then every week we go to the farmers market and pick up in-season produce. The first round of pickups is scheduled for 2 weeks from now (approx) and continue until October. The goal is to eat healthier...and get Lily interested in healthy food a bit. We will probably take some visits up to the farm (about 15-20 min away) to get her interested.

Well I better get to it...oh yeah. As far as I know the end of June works for us to celebrate Grandpa's birthday; we're flexible :)

Love you all--sarah
