tornado

the last couple of weeks have been like a tornado. i feel like i have been standing still while a tornado has been spinning madly about me. all of our students have finished the school year, so there have been lots of end of the year activites and we just returned from a trip to Washington DC with our junior high and high school girls. it was such a neat opportunity to see these girls experience Washington DC for the first time. we had a great trip! i am definitely exhausted, but it was well worth it. we were blessed with AMAZING weather and some fun experiences. we got to see the Rolling Thunder motorcycle ride, which was really cool. AND i got to go up into the Washington Monument for the first time out of all my many trips to DC.
