weekend news

Friday was awards day and picnic day at Nathan's (and my) school. I went to the awards program. I'm glad I did....Nathan received the Presidential Academic award. It came framed and it even has George Bush's signature on it! The kids thought that was great! He also got a pin. After the all school picnic at the park, we came back to the room and the kids had a chance to meet their next year teacher. They all switched rooms for 30 minutes. Since the 4th graders (Nathan's class) will be going to a different school next year and weren't able to do the switch, so they all went down and visited with the Kindergarten teachers (since their students were all in the 1st grade rooms). Nathan had his last soccer game on Saturday. They ended up winning 6-1. Today we had union meeting here and then Greg had to go do a test launch on the rocket that he has built for 4-H. The boys and Allen are getting ready to go outside and play some soccer now. I think I will just sit back, relax, and read my paper on the deck! It's a beautiful day!
