A Two Short, Too Different Spring Break Trip (Time to Say Goodbye)

:cool1: LAST DAY!! :cool1:

Since I can't dance....or cheer....I'll let the smiles do it for me. :dance3:

I went to the doc this morning and he said it's a virus that is causing back/neck spasms??? All I know is I am in pain when I sit, stand or lie down. He gave me muscle relaxers so I hope it helps. He said there's a lot of stuff going around so it just needs to run it's course.

He prescribed rest and plenty of DIS...okay I added the last part. :laughing:

Glad to hear the beach party went very well and the kids enjoyed thier day. :thumbsup2
 
Awww! The school year is over for you. Did you or any of your kiddos cry? Dimitri graduated from preschool last night and cried when he hugged his teacher goodbye. The girls' last day is tomorrow and they are prepared to cry as well. We have been so thankful to get such good teachers. I know you are one of the good ones MeMom!

My SIL had that...really wierd virus huh?? I never knew a virus could cause muscle pains.
 
Happy last day!! I never realized it was just as exciting for the teachers as it is for the students! I thought they were geniunely sad to see me go :rotfl: Just kidding, I guess those were tears of joy ;)
 

k_reile I have never heard of this type of virus either. Thanks for sharing, I don't feel like I'm going crazy anymore. ;)

These muscle relaxers are amazing....the only drawback is I just slept the afternoon away. :upsidedow
 
I can't believe that you're out of school already! My kids'last day of school isn't until June 9!!! Have a great summer and we will all be looking forward to your upcoming TR!!!

We'll have to go back before they do, though. I kind of like the Memorial Day to Labor Day idea.




She loves to make fun of me. They all do. That's okay, I think there's a little love behind the laughter.



Wow, the last day of school already! :yay: Sounds like a really fun party for the kids!


Yes! Very much so. We eat it more often than chicken.


I can already hear Henry saying "ball!" "ball!" He would LOVE one of those! I'm sure I'll be very tempted in December.

And it's THE BAG! So cute. I hope LL finds out how much it is/buys it and shares the details.

Possum takes like chicken, you know. Everything does. ;)
Truthfully, I wouldn't know, although I did have squirrel a long, long time ago.

It tasted like chicken. :)
I think I remember it being saltier and had more zing to it than chicken, though. I was probably eight or nine when I had it, and I think I only ate a bite or two and then stuck with the mashed potatoes and gravy after that.

I'm sure we'll be getting reports on several kinds of bags while LL is there.



I hope there is a Mickey Bar bag left for me next week........

I bet there will be.
Next week. You are going to Disney World next week! :banana:



MeMom, Happy Last Day!Do you cry?

I feel a twinge of a tear when I say goodbye to my former third-graders who are now fourth-graders leaving our building for good. I figure I'll see my kids in the halls next year, but when my 'old' kids come to say their last goodbyes and get me to sign their autograph pages or shirts or whatever, I know I will likely never see them again.



I do plan to scope out the bag! :thumbsup2

I knew you would. :)


I love the Mickey bar bag! Ya know...I must be getting old because I was never into bags before but now I seem to be bag crazy! LOL

The DisneyStore.com has got me again. I got an e-mail yesterday about the Parks Merchandise and they've added more cool stuff, especially toys. I found Hannah's birthday present and ordered it yesterday: http://www.disneystore.com/toys-23-...ttraction-adventure-play-set/p/1245153/70995/

I am so excited...she's going to love this!

Disney shopping is fun! I know she will love playing with it...

with you. ;)



Love that Tink bag!!!!!

Happy last day! We have 22 more to go here.

On a super cool note- one of my former students who is graduating this year came to see me this morning and asked if I would come to his graduation. I almost cried and will certainly do so that day.

Isn't it great when we see that a child has remembered us:teacher:

I love when former students come back to see me and tell me about the great things they are doing! I know he will be honored to have you there on his special day.


Make sure they save one for me as well! :thumbsup2

I called WDW and told them to hold three bags - one for LL, one for wigd, and one for CP. They knew exactly who I was talking about! :laughing:
Just go up to the front gate and tell them MeMom sent you and they'll have them ready for you.

I've had those. They put you into lullaby land!

Dising is a good remedy, so make it a double dose.

How did the girls do? It is a tad bit emotional with some of the kids, no doubt.

Would you feel comfortable sharing a picture of D's graduation?

I hope everyone is feeling better today.

You can't even imagine!!!

Sometimes they are tears of joy and sometimes they are the real 'I'll miss you' kind.



Last day yea!!!

Amen to that yay! :dance3:

True, true, and mine was good deep sleep, too. What about yours? I hope you are feeling somewhat better.


*****************************


So, you all know that I sort of like my oldest child, right? It's that girl I had that lulled me into a false sense of security about being a mom, making me want more kids and causing me to get these two heathenistic boys I have.

Anyway, today when we were going down to one of our meetings, a surprise arrived for me via one of the secretaries. It was a huge fresh fruit bouquet in a Mickey container! Everyone was very envious of it and thought it was very appropriate that it was Mickey related, of course.

Thank you, Jill, for being so sweet and for being an awesome daughter! I love you so much!

By the way, the strawberries and cantaloupe are delicious. That's all I've had so far.
Or as Brooklynn says, 'candaloob'. Candaloob and watermellow. I love you, too, Brook and Bella. Can't wait to see you on Tuesday!

A fruit bouquet? Sounds yummy and very thoughtful. You raised a wonderful daughter! :goodvibes
Did you take a picture before you began devouring it?
 
Can we see a pic of the fruit bouquet?

Very sweet and caring gift! You have the best daughter ever. ;)

How perfect that it was Mickey! ::MickeyMo

I will never get tired of "Brooklynns talk", so funny. :laughing:
 
There had better be a Mickey Ice Cream Bar bag left for me!

What a sweet daughter you have... that would be a super fun surprise.

It is sad when students leave your building.... we have through sixth grade, but a few years back we moved buildings around... and boy was it sad to see some great students and families leave at the end of third grade- I was not ready to see them go, I love watching them get big in the building.
 
Aw, that was so nice of you Jill!

It was so sweet, but I've been fretting over her spending that much money on me all day.

I took several pictures, but they weren't great. If you want to see it better, type in a search for Edible Arrangements Disney and you'll see it.

Jill is my favorite daughter every day of the week!

I might put the pictures up later.

Brooklynn came up with some stuff, alright!



What a great last day present!

Very unexpected and very sweet!

But she spent too much money.:eek:

Maybe we should all get the bags, and then we'd easily recognize each other when we plan meets in the parks. :)

Our school goes up to fourth grade, so when they leave us, they're about ready to hit that big middle school growth spurt. If they come back to see us when they're in 6th, 7th, or 8th grade, they're giants compared to what they were when they left.

The fourth graders sang a sweet song, 'I'm Ready to Fly', and I will admit to holding back a tear or two. Some of these kids have such rough, chaotic, unbalanced, unsupervised lives, and we do worry about them often. We just do what we can for the time we are with us and hope some of it sticks.
 
I'm going to cry tomorrow cause I'm the one who is leaving them..........

We'll be thinking of you today!
It will be hard to leave old friends, but you'll keep those and add new ones at your new school! :hug:


********************************

Today is the last official day of school! The building will be quiet, since it will be 600+ bodies short of a normal day. But it will be a busy place. Cumulative folders have to be filled out, equipment checked in, new rosters need to be made for next year's classes, teachers are moving in, out, and around, testing data has to be entered on a dozen sheets with a million little boxes for numbers, shelves have to be cleared, computers covered...

There is more, but if you want to know all about it, just come on down and help me out today. I'll meet you at the building at 6:30. :thumbsup2

Have a good Friday, all! We have several who are traveling this weekend, so keep them in your thoughts and prayers. Lady Lallie is on her way to Disney World! Let's all hope the rain moves out quickly for her so that she doesn't have to wear a poncho the whole time! Dawn is on her way to NYC. Brookelizabeth is having a fun weekend in Wisconsin.

What's everyone else up to?

I'll just be enjoying a quiet weekend, so I'll get some more of our Animal Kingdom day up either tonight or tomorrow.

Have a good one!
 
Hope the last day of school goes well! I always liked the last teacher work day, so much got accomplished and I could work at my own pace.
 
I hope you can get everything done today! I would love to be there to help you. Then we could go to Rainforest for a celebratory dinner. :goodvibes

It must be so excitting for you to be moving classes. You finally got your wish. :hug:

I'm still here...at home...resting...trying to not think about the lost wages this week. :eek:

:flower:HAVE A FUN LAST DAY! :flower:
 
Memom

I hope your last day goes smoothly. It sounds like a very tiring day! When is your next trip? I guess it is getting pretty close now.

Jill is so sweet, and we know she gets that from you. I love cantaloupe and strawberries! Sound like a great gift!
