CHP Academy Days 102-107/187

Once again the past week has been full.  Thursday, Brian got to feel the pain of OC Spray.  He said it was one of the most painful experience of his life.  Second only to actually being on fire, even then it was a close call.  He sent me a picture of his face and I can confirm that it looked like he was not having fun.  By the time Brian came home on Friday night he had boxed, got sprayed with OC Spray, and passed his certification in pistol, rifle, and shotgun. So week 15 was busy for Brian.  Once he got home the weekend flew by! A had her first real sleep over at her friend's house Saturday night.  My mom watched H and M so Brian could take me to Breaking Dawn.  Yep, I have an awesome husband.  Sunday, we went to church and then out to lunch with Brian's parents.  Then it was time for him to leave.

Nothing special happened on Monday.  I did twist my ankle, which is never good, and that kind of put a damper on the rest of the day.  The quick trip to Wal-mart for the last of the Thanksgiving supplies did not improve my mood.  At the Academy Brian had a quiet day.  He found out that on Monday they will be using the taser gun on him.  That was the highlight of his day.

Today, both A and H had shindigs in their classrooms since it was the last day before the Thanksgiving break.  A's class joined the rest of the second graders and had an egg drop.  The principle had the honor of dropping the wrapped up eggs from the roof while the children chanted "DROP THE EGG!".  It was all very exciting.  After the egg drop M and I headed over to H's class.  On the way she got distracted, tripped me, and made me re-twist my ankle.  Now I am gimping around even more.  :/  We got to H's class in time to make a few crafts. H was having a blast, but M was reaching her pre- nap limit.  So after crafts we headed home so M could have her nap.

At the Academy Brian had his Felony Stop test today.  He feels that he did well, but his instructor did not say whether he passed or failed.  He said it was awesome (sarcastically) to hear the cadets in company A get their turn with the taser today.  Apparently there was a lot of screaming.  I might have to take it easy on the teasing him about the taser this weekend...maybe...probably not.  I can always wait to see how often he joins in with my brother in teasing me on Thursday.  He is excited to get a four day weekend this week!  Especially since there are a lot of Saturdays coming up that he will spend at the Academy.

Tomorrow is going to be spent preparing for Thanksgiving!  Cleaning and baking should take up the majority of the day.  I have a craft for the girls to do to keep them busy.  Hopefully it works!  :)  Fingers crossed that everything goes according to the plan.  :)

Blessings,
