4.5 days left of my first year of teaching! That means 2 things: A)I am a SURVIVOR. Those little squirts didn't kill me after all. 2) Summer is a-brewin!
Here are some things that I am looking forward to this summa:
Mission Trip to Omaha! We leave next Sunday and I am so excited to do some work for people who really need it. This is going to sound preachy but I'm also really excited to be in God's presence for the week. After a somewhat stressful year both personally and professionally, it's going to feel good to be away from it all and in Him for the week. :) We are spending two days working at a local food pantry in Omaha (the equivalent of our Ozarks Food Harvest). We will spend the other two days working on a Habitat for Humanity house. I'm ready to jump in there and get my hands dirty.

Lake with mi familia! The lake is probably my FAVORITEFAVE thing about summer. I grew up on the lake and it means much more to me than tubing and tanning. It is a family bonding time that also happens to be muy relaxing.
Flo-Rida friend trip! I have been to florida with my family several times before but never with friends. We are headed to St. George Island in the panhandle the first week of August. Now if we can just keep that pesky oil spill away!
Float Trips/Camping! At least one float trip (church) is planned. I'm hoping to get more than just one in...with a splash of camping!
I'm also working all summer at day camp. It should be a fun and interesting summer because some of my closest friends are working with me! Woot woot for saving money. Workworkwork.
Anywho, it should pan out to be a successful and funfun summer! I'm pretty pumped and I'm ready to kick it all off in 4 and a half days! Yes please!
