With all the crazy weather we have had, there have been lots of cancelled and rescheduled events. That makes me crazy! So this week and next Mr J has 6 scholar's bowl meets in 9 days. Crazy! Basketball is officially over and track practice has begun in our snow and negative temps. We got a new heater before the most recent storm and super cold hit which was great timing! It is so much quieter!!! Our old one was 30 years old and SO LOUD!!! I asked our dear 80 year old neighbors if they could hear it and they said, "Yeah, we thought it was a dying tractor" Oh, my was I embarrassed! So glad to have the replaced! Miss E and I took a safety and self defense class to end the week. That was fun. I feel like this is the calm before the storm of spring as the calendar after spring break is filling up like crazy! Last quarter of school starts next week! Where has the year gone? Anyway, take a look at our week.....
These kids got first place at one of their scholar's bowl meets this week! (one of 6 in two weeks! Crazy!) They did awesome!!!
Both the A and B teams with their coach. The B team got 3rd place, so it was a great day for our scholar's bowl teams!!!
Jazz band competition this week. Mr J did awesome on his sax solos!
The "before" with our old 30 year heater on the right. It services the downstairs and basement. The one on the left services our upstairs and is obviously newer and working great and is quiet ;)
The "after" with our new heater! Woohoo! We played a game called "Can you tell if the heater is on?" once it was replaced because our old one was SO LOUD and the new one is so quiet!!!!! But man, they are expensive! We could have bought a nice used car or our new heater. Crazy!
Another scholar's bowl meet, and Mr J's team got 2nd! Woohoo!
Self Defense and safety class that Miss E and I took together. It was awesome! There are some better pictures that they took, but I haven't gotten them yet. We had 2 hours of instruction class time and then 4 hours of practical hands on learning. Both Ella and I flipped that guy in the red, our instructor. Pretty cool!
Our super hero pose at the end of our self defense class. Pretty awesome group and amazing teacher!
Thanks for visiting! Hope you had a great week!
So great to do a self defense class and yay for a new heater. I know they are expensive. We had to replace ours a couple years ago and ouch but worth it in the long run.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya, we had to replace our AC a few years ago (it wasn't even that old) and ouch. $$$
