Welcome Summer!


Here we are (finally)...the very last week of school for CMS...summer is about to be in full swing!! I'm starting of my summer with a trip to Northern Ireland with 23 high school kids (pray for us, please!). I head out on Thursday, and will have no access to Internet, email, etc. until I return. If you send me an email for an event, I promise I will get back to you the week of June 22. There WILL be a QCB posted next week (assuming my blog scheduling skills work). Hope your summer is off to a great start!!

Blessings,
The Buzz
