I love my 3 week summer break where I don't have to see any kids. Not that I don't love my job, but lets be honest, I need a break. I'm down to 2 jobs (from 4) and I like to be really lazy. Some days I go to yoga and then I lay on the couch. I feel really guilty the whole time but not guilty enough to get up. But then I unfortunately remember I have homework for my last online class (hooray) and then I want to cry because instead of watching HGTV I get to watch videos and take tests. And then Niki saves the day and we craft. I have never crafted a whole day and I think I might like it. We found this awesome artist, Lorena Siminovich, who sells great art to Anthropologie for $104.00. Niki and I made ours for $5.00 + the cost of frames. I just love a good deal.

Hi Shannon! My good friend laviejoie sent me Charlie and Tim's blog, (my daughter also has autism) which led me to yours:) I see we also have a common thread: teaching. Enjoy the rest of your vacation! Great pics, by the way.
