scatter brain....

The last two posts go together with all the pictures. And the AAACHHOOOO.... is becasue I think Will gave me allergies. I have never really had them before. All of the sudden this year for the past month I can not stop sneezing. At night my nose gets super stuffed up, so I have to breath through my mouth, then my lips get all dry! I hate it, then I wake up and my nose wont stop running... make up you mind, nose! Will has always had bad alleries for as long as I can remember. In high school he would have them so bad that he would just stick tissue up his nose to keep it from running, which I have not yet resorted to, but have considered it! Anyway, I blame Will for me now haveing allergies.... Are allergies even contageous? :)
Hope that these posts aren't too confusing....

AAAACHOOOOO

OK... so I am a little late on my weekly post, but I have made a decision. If I don't have anything fun to post, then I just ramble and blab and it usually turns into complaining/venting.... and I hate reading lost posts on other peoples blogs, so why whould anyone want to read it on my blog?

Plus I really like to look at pictures, so in no particular order and some kind of old (March/Aprilish) but oh well. Hope you enjoy....
Firefighters came to school to read to the kids. Of course, since I am the new one the other teachers volunteered me to put on the fire suit. It was totally sweaty and nasty! And i swear the fireman is not grabbing my booty and smilling as he stares... just holding up the oxygen tank and laughing cause when he let go I almost flipped backwards!

Cute pregnat sisters at their baby shower with the diaper cakes I made them!!! I was so proud of myself!

Will and Alexa came to visit at school and came to my awards ceremony! Thanks!

house... shmouse...

So, we had been house hunting for what seemed like forever. Lincoln was awesome and would take us out every Wednesday to look at houses. Every house I was able to find something wrong withit or just didn't like it. It got to the point, to where I would just go with Lincoln, then if we found one that I actually liked, we would take Will to go see it. Well, it took a while, but we found a house that Will and I agreed on and fell in love with it. But it seems like the wait now is taking even longer than the search, for it to actually become ours. We put in an offer, got turned down because the stupid Wells Fargo guy, then the other people fell through, the agent called Lincoln and said it was ours! We were so excited, if you think this story ends here you are mistaken! :) We had to write up a new offer and submit it, but some how between 7 am when we submitted our offer and 3pm... they got another offer. We ended up increasing our offer and it was accepted!!! YAY!!! Still not the end.... Got the house inspected, everything looked good! Now we are just waiting and waiting and waiting. Durring the wait Wells Fargo sends out an appraiser, to check everything out. They pick who goes and we just have to foot the bill! So stupid, but even stupider is who they sent out there! We go the appraisal back and it said the master bathroom toilet didn't work and that the garage door didn't go up or down. Will and I got a little worried because the inspection from earlier came back all good! So Will and I went over to the house to check things out for ourselves. First we go into the master bathroom, I look down in the toilet and the is no water... of course it isn't going to flush. Will looks back behind the toilet and the watter was turned off, so all he did was turn it on. We waited for the toilet to fill up, then flushed it! So it did work... Then we go down to the garage, open the door from the house and walk in. I look up and the plug is hanging down from the opener thing! No wonder it wouldn't open or close... IT WASN'T PLUGGED IN!!!! This guys is so dumb... I am a girl and don't know a whole lot about house repairs or maitence, but I solved both problems... with the help of my handy husband!!! So we still were a little concerned and wanted to plug in the garage to make sure that it really did worked... but we had no ladder. So what did we do... I jumped up on Will's shoulders and plugged it in, now the logical thing to do would be to get down and push the button, but I stayed up on Will's shoulders and pushed it. So, now our future neighbors will think that we are weidos, walking around the garage on each others shoulders! :) Well, sorry there is no pictures, but once it is offically and finally ours don't you worry!!! Needless to say... I should be getting paid the $500 that we had to pay that idiot! But I am glad that everything does work.... and hopefully the waiting won't be too much longer!
I was trying to keep up with my one post a week and this was about the only funny or exciting thing that happened!
Oh...wait... I almost forgot.... The last day of school was on Thursday!!!! I have offically finished my first year of teaching!!!
