It has been a fun and busy week. It was Star Wars Day on May 4th. Awesome! For Cinco De Mayo, Bob and I went on a date to Pancheros. It was also a 2nd celebration for my new job because I was having serious doubts I had actually been offered the position. Finally someone told me John announced it to his staff and I was flooded with relief that my brain hadn't made it up. So, we partied again. I have been overwhelmed by all the kind emails from Excelsior welcoming me and the staff from Anamosa about how much I will be missed. I am truly excited for this new adventure!!!
I had an awesome birthday yesterday! We did exactly what I wanted: Osaka for lunch, watched 5th wave at home in my PJS and then they got me my sweet cream at coldstone! It was perfect! We also had our home chef Margaritas for dinner! Yummy!
I have also been adamant the past many years about never having a TV in the bedroom. Now that are kids are almost all gone and my body is a mess, I thought it was time to change that rule. Sometimes, pathetically enough, I am too exhausted to walk down the stairs to watch TV with the family. So Bob got me this for my Anniversary/Birthday/Mothers Day gift and I love it!!!
Friday was the huge Battle of the Books at the middle school. We had 34 teams compete over the year. The final 5th/6th team went against the 5/6 teacher team in the finals and same with the 7th/8th. It was a huge success and the battles were tight. The student teams both won by 2 points. We had an awesome party with never-ending cupcakes and pizza!
So wonderful to hear this week from Marisa and see that she is alive and having a great time in Mexico!
Brandon’s sister had her wedding yesterday. We are looking forward to seeing pictures!
Also my lilacs bloomed
And look what I got from my students for teacher appreciation week:
