Mother's Day weekend

I know I haven't posted in a LONG time.  I've had/have computer issues and can't get all my photos from my photo stream to show up on my computer.  So I didn't blog because I didn't have all the photos from when we went to the Omaha Zoo (or anytime after that).  Then it spiraled out of control from there! lol

So now I'm back.  It's the last week of my school year!  I'm so happy I taught this year.  It's been really great and I have loved it.  Even the hard, trying parts.  The kids handled it so very well too.

The kid's last day of school is next Thursday so I have a week "off" before they get out.  So I am filling it with appointments!  And still have work to do at school actually.

Justin wrecked on his gravel bike about 2 months ago and hurt his left knee.  He didn't know how bad until a week ago when he found out the results from his MRI.  He has a partially torn ACL and will see the ortho dr next week to set up a surgery date.

By the way we leave KS in about 6 weeks!  

We found out our house in TX will be pretty similar in floor plan to our current house, but it won't have a basement.  Which means we have some downsizing and configuring to do!  

Which led us to the furniture store after dinner Saturday night.  

 Sunday was also our 18th anniversary.  We tried to go on a family bike ride at a park about 30 minutes away.  But Caroline didn't like the single track riding and it hurt Justin's knee.  SO they turned back and the boys and I had a great time!  The trail we did was 3.5 miles up and down, over and through!  They loved it.  We crossed little streams, went by the lake, Will hit a tree head on, Eric spotted a turtle, and they argued about who would be in second place behind me, and argued over going to slow and getting too close.  But I'm pretty sure they'd do it again!!
Let's just say the ride home was very quiet!!

Then Justin grilled steaks and we celebrated Mother's Day and our anniversary!  It was perfect!
