Exam break is fabulous on the other side!

Hey Y'all,

So I have come to love the dredded exam break..when you're on the other side of the coin and not stressed from studying it can be very relaxing and mellow. I have one group writing on the 28th, some essays to mark, and final marks to enter on reprot cards..and about 10 days to get it done..so lots of time for posting, surfing, and procrastinating! Being a teacher is a lot better than being a student...most of the time anyway!

Glad to see that you older guys aren't leaving Neil and I hanging and have jumped back on the blog band-wagon. Now we just need the eldest to get his act together...we miss you scott!

So Adam and I were in the big city of Edmonton this past weekend. It was Adam's birthdayon the 20th (yesturday) so I kidnapped him for a couple days. We went to West Edmonton Mall and spent the day at the water park there. If you haven't been you gotta go...we had a ball...there was a huge wave pool..a million slides, hot tubs, tube rides, a bunch of lounges...it was great...we were like to big kids running all over the place from slide to slide..it was fun...we also did some good eating...we are big fans of Tony Roma's Rib House...fabulous ribs..mmmm. We got home late last night after getting lost on the way home for a little while..FYI- the highways here are not clearly marked!

J, it was nice to see that you finally posted and it was a special kind of post so I guess it was worth the wait! We don't get to here those types of words from yuo too often..loved hearing how you felt...I agree, Kirsten and Adam are great additions to the family! Linda would also be great to have in the Stephen mix (well officially anyway)..hopefully that will happen soon..hint hint scott...

Well, I guess I better get busy here..I haev lots of marking to do and I want to go home for lunch at some point! Oh yeah, J..my teachers convention is the 28th adn 29th of February...let me know if you are working that week..I would actually be arrivingWednesday the 27th evening...I am not sure what the plan is yet for the convention..I might just stay with soem friends for the Thursday adn Friday..and then maybe head to your place for the weekend..let me know what would be best for you ..or maybe we can chat on the phone about it...I will be in the Edmonton area before then though..We are taking our basketball team to a tournement in Stoney Plane on the 15th and 16th next month...which if I am correct is only a little ways from Edmonton (2oish minutes?). Anyway, after we are done playing on Saturday we are going to take the teams to Edmonton for the night and go to W.E.M on the Sunday..probably head back this way around 3or 4 on Sun...but we should definalty meet up that weekend.

Alright...I am really going this time! Hope this note finds you all safe and happy! Love you guys so much...hope you have a great week.
