march has come and gone

Wow, the month went by soo fast!! It's crazy to think we are in April now. I was lucky enough to have the entire month off (thank goodness for year round schools!) and I thoroughly enjoyed my time away from work. I did take advantage of the chances to make extra money, though, by subbing and teaching intersession here and there. I think I worked a total of 10 days, so that will be a nice chunk of extra money! So let's see...what else have I been up to this month...

We went snowboarding at the end of February with Tim's cousins and we had a great time! The weather was actually really good that day; just a little bit of snow here and there and NO rain. It was my first time up at Northstar, and it was such a nice place. I kept myself on the beginner runs, but the ones at Northstar are super nice since they are longer and I didn't have to ride the lift up every 10 minutes! That, and it took me about 20ish minutes to board DOWN the hills. That's right, I said I was a beginner!

Shamrock came and I survived! Anna and I were great pace-partners together. I would love for us to do another race! She was so great at pushing me when I needed it and knowing HOW to do it without me wanting to kick her in the face. Love you Bananna!!What a wonderful day!! I completed my 13.1 miles in 2:43...which means I beat my last time by 17 minutes!! Such an amazing feeling.

Tim and I also took a trip down to sunny San Diego! We needed some time together, and it was the perfect place for it. We flew down on a Thursday and enjoyed some sun, shopping, and clam chowder. Friday we drove to the Wild Animal Park. It was our first time there and it was so awesome! It reminded me of Animal Kingdom in Florida, which was one of my favorite parks besides the Magic Kingdom. We explored Balboa Park on Saturday before our evening flight back to Sacramento. It was a beautiful and warm day, I even got to wear shorts! We went into several art museums, the history museum, and a few botanical gardens...but my favorite was the Science Museum where we got to play like kids! Such a fun few days with my hubby.

No word yet as far as my future as a teacher. I did receive the dreaded pink slip, and it wasn't even pink!! BOO! I won't find anything out until next month or later; it's a total waiting game. But I'll keep you posted! I'm sure something will work itself out...I hope!

Hope you all are doing well out there!! :)
