Spring Break

We decided to take a break from school this week. Dave is out of school and has also taken off from the church. We are getting some chores done around the house. We are planning to put tile in both our upstairs bathrooms. Dave pulled the flooring up in the girls bathroom and the wood was quite yucky! The kids soak the floor every time they take a bath, so it wasn't a big surprise that the wood was rotten. Today it rained so we were stuck in the house all day. We are ready to get out of the house. We are hoping to do some yard work tomorrow. We have big plans for our backyard. We are going to burn some rotted out cross ties in the back yard to help get the yard ready to be leveled. I'm ready to get some of these projects done. I'm thankful for the week off too. We desperately needed a break from that little schoolroom. Even though we will still be together everyday, its different than when I'm teacher mama. This week I can just be mama.....well maybe not..... I guess I'm always teacher and mama. Sorry if that made no sense. Today Dave also stained the rails on the staircase. He has had a productive day.....as for me, I rested alot today:) It rained all day and I could not seem to get motivated. I did some dishes, laundry and kept things picked up......but nothing productive like painting or the like. Tonight my sister Lori and her little boy are spending the night with us. Dave and Lori are involved in a serious game of Super Mario. I hope to put the kids to bed soon and watch a movie.
