Winding Down


This school year is quickly coming to an end! I only teach for two more days this week and Ryan has four more days . . . then it is SUMMER! I will be teaching part-time a bit this summer but that is small compared to all day, every day. We are really looking forward to more time together as a family this summer.

Last week Ryan finished up all the back drop and stage art for Smith Elem. School's musical production of '101 Dalmatians'. It got rave reviews and many were impressed. Aren't the pictures great! Ryan and his art club kids worked very hard on the stage design for the better part of three weeks! Ryan ended up getting a special recognition/award at his school called the "Fred Factor". It is given to people who go above and beyond doing great service and excelling at their job! Way to go Ryan. (He doesn't know I am telling all this!) He absolutely deserved it but he was very surprised and humbled when he got the award. I am very pleased with all he has accomplished this year being a new art teacher at a new school in a new state. Yay Ryan!










Miss B will spend her last week with her babysitter this week. Miss B loves Liz (the babysitter) and will miss her this summer but we are so happy to have Bethany all to ourselves (esp. before the new baby sister arrives). We have lots to do and many projects to complete before baby #2 makes her appearance.
Here are a few pics of Miss B from this week.

Congratulations, Ryan! The artwork is really awesome. Is it too early to start counting down the minutes for the end of the school year?
