JUNE

I haven't updated in so long because we have been so busy! Our summer has been in full hustle and bustle since day one. Since Todd graduated in May, the job search has been in full swing. So far we haven't had any luck, but he still has several applications out and we are hoping that all those years of school will pay off with a teaching job.

So far this summer, we have been trying to keep the kids busy. We have taken them to the splash pad, bowling, the movies, skating, swimming, the Golden Flake Factory and to the Iron Dale Cafe (aka Whistle Stop Cafe). We have enjoyed fishing and swimming at my parents house. We still have several things that we want to do with them before the summer is over. None of which are big vacation plans, but we hope that they will be fun.

Tuesday we are planning on going to the Birmingham Zoo. Alicia and the boys are going with us, as well as, Tatum and her kids (Alicia's sister-in-law). We are going to meet Jennifer on the way there and pick up Brooks and take him with us!

We are in Dothan right now. Todd has an appointment to take a test with the Dothan City School System. It is not the ideal situation for us, but we have to explore all options. I REALLY hope that something comes about in our area. I know that Todd is anxious to start teaching. I am anxious for him to start teaching.
