Good Friends Come To Visit

It's Saturday, and our good friends Jim and An Golterman have come to visit for a week! My dad has known Jim since they were in the US Army Chorus together. His wife, An (ah-n) is from Korea, and she doesn't speak english very well. But she's gotten much better after the 3 years we say them last. They are great to have around, but unfortunatly, Me, Jenny, Mom and Dad still have to go to school and work. But Mom says they're used to it and they'll be fine.

Teacher of the Year updates

We've had 2 three-day weekends these past 2 weeks, so that's kool. Right? I mean, it's Friday right now, and I'm sitting in Wards Creek elementary school (where I live half my life), when I should be at home. Not kool. Right? Oh, well. Me and my sister brought some stuff to entertain ourselves. See, my mom's a music teacher here, so she has an inservice day, and we had to come with her. And my sister is a fifth grader here, too. But guess what happened to my mom!? She's teacher of the year!! And she's also one of the 3 finalists! So, that means that she might be teacher of the year for our whole county! And then she can move on to our whole state!! It's all really exciting! So that's kool. Right?
