April 15th

Tomorrow is tax day, and I have just filed my return. Talk about cutting it to the wire. It seems that we owed a bit of money this year, though not too much. I was expecting this, though, so it was not a surprise at all, and we were prepared for it! Now, we are awaiting the tax credit check to be coming out in the next month or two. Any idea where that will go? To the debt!

Jump Rope for Heart

Andrew and Mandy are both participating in Jump Rope for Heart, which is a fund raising event for the American Heart Association. If you are interested in helping out a worthy cause, please consider sending a small donation. Checks should be payable to Fairforest Elementary School. Andrew and Mandy both are jumping in honor of Mama Ola, their late great-grandmother.

Thank you for your consideration.

It's Almost Over

Spring Break, that is.

Andrew, Mandy, and I have been home all week. Unfortunately, we have not had the best weather this week. We had only one warm, sunny day perfect for being outside. Otherwise, it has been cold, rainy, and generally yucky. We can't complain, though, because we really need the rain. Paul worked all week, as well.

However, we are well rested and ready for the remaining 8 weeks of school this year. I can't believe how quickly another year has gone by!
