No news must be good news

I have Internet at home! Well, for the moment. I have used it a good portion of the weekend to work on a new server program I am going to train the teachers in the school district how to use next month. The problem is that I have to figure out how to use it first. Phillip has been busy selling fire wood and helping his cousin work on his house this weekend. Not much else has been going on. The excitement of the last few days has been going out to eat! I know, that seems pretty every day to you readers, but for us it is a real treat. I has an early release day on Friday and Phillip picked me and surprised me by taking me lunch. The next day we went to lunch again while the girls were seeing a movie at the elementary school. It was great. We have more leftovers than we know what to do with in our fridge right now. Good thing too. Neither one of us wants to cook.

As you can see from the photo above, Wildfire sent me another picture of Casie. She is lying on the blanket I made for her. Isn’t she just precious?

Welcome Casie Marie!

I would like to congratulate my friend, Wildfire, and her husband, on the arrival of their baby girl, Casie Marie. She was born on Feb. 7th and she weighed 7lbs and 2.3 oz and was 19 inches long. Way to go!

Obviously I have been away from the blog recently. Last week I was kept busy filling in as Dean of Students, which is like a vice principal position. I have also been working to create some new lesson plans for my tenth graders, as well as planning a Sock Hop in April. Before that, Phillip and I are organizing a cribbage tournament for the Dillingham Beaver Round-Up festivities in March. The proceeds will be donated to help build the new Christian youth center. This is a project we are very excited about.

Anyway, things keep trucking along. I am working a few Saturdays at the school writing curriculum for social studies and language arts for 6-12 grade. Phillip has been chopping wood and is still looking for work. Employment is rather bleak this time of year. Keep us in your prayers.
