This picture just cracked me up!
Spring has sprung in Ohio. Crazy weather here this past month in particular. One day snow and ice, the next can be in the 50's. This week is supposed to be 40-50 all week. Hope the flowers don't come up too soon. I'm pretty sure there will be more bad weather to come.

Hoping Jeremy and Mandi hear good news this week. They seriously want to move back up north to the Savannah/Hilton Head area. Just waiting on the right job to come about.

Pat got good news that he can get lasik surgery and not have to wear glasses which he has worn since 5th grade. Yay! So surgery is scheduled for the 17th.

Ok so winter has come again to Ohio. Friday was a late start for CCS but all the rest of the districts were closed. Had a massage at 10 and roads were ok by then. However, Washington gathering at Yucatan was cancelled since they were calling for ice and more snow late Friday nite. We did get the snow but not the ice :).

Pat and Jeremy learned how to call face to face on the ipads/iphones. It is great fun to talk and see the kids while we are talking. I think the boys like their ipads!! Tonight I was playing words with friends with Jacie Wright and up popped Jeremy to talk. GREAT fun!

Pat and I stayed home all day today. He plowed earlier and the dogs had fun running in the snow off and on today. Tomorrow we will probably do the same. Gonna watch some football too.

Stay warm everyone!!!

Worked last Thurs. and Friday. Friday was an all day inservice for OTES in Zanesville. Good information. Now I wish I had applied for the train the trainer program but apps closed Dec. 31.

Have to take Mike to the eye dr. tomorrow for his other laser surgery. Probably have to take him back on Tues for his follow up. At least Pat won't have to take the time off work to do it. Thurs. and Fri. I work again. Friday is inservice for all teachers. I will be with Grant on OTES session and then by myself with the TIF session. HOpe teachers ask some good questions! Seems they don't really care much about all the work a few are doing for their benefit.

Jeremy had his first day at TwinEagles today. Group of players arrived in a helicopter! Some people have WAY too much money! Hope it is a good gig for him.

Rain this week....:(

It was a WONDERFUL Christmas!!! Jeremy and Mandi were home for a week. We had to share their company with the Hockenberrys and friends but we did get to see quite a bit of them. Mandi and I got our hair done on Thurs. "girl time" :)
Saturday we had Mike and John for dinner...prime rib yum! Joanie had to work so we sent a care package home for her. The weather was good while the kids were home so there wasn't any worry about them driving back and forth from Malvern. The iPads were a BIG hit and a surprise for everyone. Loved the things we got and gave to everyone but best of all was just having Jeremy and Mandi home!!
Tuesday night we went to Molly's for the McKenzie Christmas. Gavin and the Boose family were there too. It was a GREAT night! Lots of good food and family.
All too soon it was time to take the kids to Columbus for their flight back to Florida. They went to the OSU basketball game the night before and had little sleep before their 6AM flight. Sad to see them go back but have to think it is just so they can come home again soon.
Jeremy got an outside job at TwinEagles in Naples. He is very excited to start at a new club. FINALLY out of Triple C and on to better things.
Happy New Year to ALL!!!
