An Update

Hello Fans....I know you have really been missing me.....
Sure. Anyway, not much going on lately and certainly not enough to post if there was. Work consumes me. I am very frustrated. I refuse to take work home because my family comes first. Trey is now 1. Wow, what a year. He also has a tooth. He also has a new website. It has the latest pictures of him from his birthday. Hope everyone is doing well.

Only two weeks from Friday and I will be on the streets of New York City celebrating my anniversary. Fun times. Michael and I will be heading to New York to sight see. We will be seeing Chicago and Phantom of the Opera. I am so excited to be seeing the shows. I also can't wait for the cold weather. I hope it is snowing. Anyway, have a great evening.

I know it has been a very long time since I have posted. Our computer is down and I can't do it at school. Things have been good. Trey is growing like a weed and he is pulling up. It is hard to believe that in less than a month he will be 1 year old. It makes me want to cry.

Michael has been having a lot of problems with his stomach lately. He found out that he has to have his gall bladder out. He meets with a surgeon on Monday. I will be glad when he starts feeling better.

School is wonderful. I love my class. They are just the most precious children I have ever taught. They love each other and get along great. It has been a great year so far.

Hope things are going great for everyone.
Shout out to Lynn!! I miss you bunches! Hope this was a quick enough update! Love you girl!

Back to school and all that goes with it!!

I went back to school today. I have to say standing in line waiting to get my breakfast, I did cry just a little. Taking care of baby is no easy job, but it is so much easier than the first of the year. Trey is a little angel right now and I just love my time with him. He has almost started to crawl. It should be any day now.

School is going well. Just meetings today and then a little work in my room. I am a little overwhelmed this year. I was going to work all last week, but I had no air in my room. It was about 80 and just awful. It would have been ok if I had windows to open and let even a hot breeze in, but such is life. So coming in this morning was a little hectic. I have decided that it will be fine and I will get it all done.

The best part about my day involves two things. I was so excited to see Trey and he was just precious and my bible study resumed today. It was FANTASTIC. We are doing a Beth Moore study called "Breaking Free". It is going to be awesome. Although I believe that it is going to be difficult at times, I do believe that it is going to be an eye opening experience that will bring me closer to God. I missed Trey while I was gone, but it was just so amazing to be in a room full of Godly inspirational women. I will say that it was still sad to have my best bud missing for another summer. Hollie is a great friend and I miss her so much. Especially when schools starts back because it makes me miss her that much more. I remember all the fun times we used to have and it makes me sad. Even though she has been gone for 3 years now it is still like she just left. Ok enough or I will be crying again.

Tomorrow the district is closed for a huge meeting. Every employee in the district is going to a meeting at Brushy Creek. Should be interesting. Especially the parking situation. We will find out who our teacher of the year for the district is and finally Liberty has a teacher in the running. Mary Helen is our PE teacher and she is a hoot and a phenominal teacher that the children ADORE!!! I hope she wins. She would represent us well.

This weekend is going to be busy but at least we will be at home for some R and R. Tomorrow is my dad's birthday and we are going to celebrate this weekend, so that will be great. He is a great dad and has always been so much fun. We are a lot alike...we LOVE to talk to ANYONE. He is even more talkative than me and for those of you who know me that is really quite amazing. Anyway, daddy if you are reading this I love you bunches!! And I hope you have a GREAT birthday!

The end of an era

There are very many things that I can say have never happened to me. Let's see, never won a million dollars, never been to Europe, etc. I had a very special never up until today. If you had asked me yesterday if I had ever had a cavity, I would have said no, never. Well, that ended today. Not only do I have a cavity, but I actually have 2. Nice, huh. I was VERY upset when I found out. I went to my moms office and I cried like I had lost my favorite pair of shoes. I was absolutely devastated. So of course, I call my loving husband, who proceeds to laugh his head off and say "Welcome to the real world, honey." What a gem!!

So, I now have no tonsils, and 2 cavities. I also washed my cell phone on another note. I was torn up last night because our puppy was missing. I threw it in the bag that had my swimsuit in it. I threw all that in the washer this morning. Now I have to used a crappy old phone. I don't care about the phone, but I had the best pictures of Trey on there and that is what makes me so sad!

This Week

Well, we returned from the beach and have pretty much recovered. I have been staying with my nephews for the week. They are so much fun. We have played games and watched movies and eaten a lot, well Alex and I have!! Tomorrow we are planning to go swimming at my parents. John and I should have a splendid time. He is a hoot, but he is swimming in the deep end now and that makes it even more fun to swim. We are working on getting him to put his head in the water.

Trey thoroughly enjoyed the beach. He LOVED tasting the water...salt, pool. It was quite funny. He even started sucking on Michael's shoulder when he was in the ocean with him. We didn't forget a thing and had a wonderful time. Trey also loved riding bikes. We now want to get two bikes for Michael and I to ride. We will have to look at EBay and see what we can find.

Well, I am off to bed. This getting up early is killing me. I have to go to bed early so I can get up at 7.

The Beach

We leave for Isle of Palms on Sunday. I am excited to be going to the beach, but not so excited to be back in Charleston. We will be staying at Wild Dunes. I absolutely love this place. It has everything you could possibly want in one place. We get to ride bikes, play tennis (my new passion), fish, exercise, swim, and play in the ocean. There are even golf courses and restaurants in the resort. It is so much fun. I am excited to ride bikes gain. I love to ride and hopefully this will be good exercise for the week. I am planning to go to the fitness center as well. DAILY!! I guess we will see. I know that if I want to eat like I know that I will I need to exercise everyday in order to do this. So now I just have to get everything packed. NOT looking forward to this. I have no idea how to pack for Trey. I mean we need a pack n play, high chair, bathtub, clothes, diapers, formula, bottles, ,food, spoons.................Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Needless to say I am afraid this might be a nightmare.
Better go, Trey is sleepy!!
