Well, it has been a very long time since I blogged last! I love to read everyone's blogs. I just don't think that I have any news to blog weekly. I could have blogged a month ago, but didn't. Here is what has been going on for the past 3 months. For Spring Break, we went to Six Flags. We were there for 2 days, and rode maybe 4 "big rides". There were so many people there!! I waited in line for 45 minutes for 2 funnel cakes!!! We also waited for 45 minutes just to ride the Judge Roy Scream. We did have a good time, just being together!
Here we go!
Jace riding the spinning the ballons. The only ride that didn't have at least a 15 min. wait. So, he rode it again, and again.

Now for our Easter. We dyed eggs on Sat. night, and Jace informed me that they would have been more colorful if I hadn't forgot to buy the vinegar. It rained all day on Sunday ;( So, we didn't have an eventful day, and to make matters worse, my lunch that I had worked so hard on was ruined. F.Y.I., if you want to cook a ham, buy a ham, not a pork roast. Lesson learned!

Dipping the eggs
The finished product... colorful eggs and colorful hands
"Guns Up"
Now for the most recent news....
Jace was allergy tested again on Tuesday. He is still veeerrryyy allergic to dust. The good news is the Allergist does not want to put Jace on allergy shots! Yea!!! (for both Mom and Jace, giving your own child shots is not fun) He was doing great on a mixture of Singulair, Nasonex, and Xyzal, until he had to quit taking them to go to the doctor. By the time Tuesday came he was begging us to just give him his medicine. That was the worst thing, but he is feeling better now. Today, we went to "Relay Day" at Jace's school. The kids have been working all week on the different stations they went to. There was Tug'o'War, Sac Races, a Water Relay, an Obstacle Course, Free Throws, and of course Snack Time. Parents participated in Tug'o'War. It was Parents vs. Kids, we (the parents) were instructed to "let the kids win". They won FAIR-AND-SQUARE!!! His class was STRONG!!!! We had lots of fun. Jace's teacher was awarded as Teacher of the Year, and she had asked if I would stay with the class while she went to her reception, so I did. I was not alone though ;) Mrs. F, our sitter's mom & the reading "specialist", was with me. Thank Goodness!! After substituting last year and today, I still believe it takes a very special person to teach. We have been very blessed with Jace's teacher this year. We will miss her very much next year. His future teachers have very large shoes to fill. I will try to update more often, but I am not going to promise anything. Joe and I are doing well. We just work, and run Jace's Taxi Service. We are looking forward to the summer, and hoping to get to visit family! Here are a few shots of Relay Day:

Have A Blessed Week, or until I write again.
