Ten on Thursday

1. At long last, the moment I have dreaded for so many weeks has come. Tomorrow is my last day with my first graders! It breaks my heart to leave them, so I hope my third graders will be equally as sweet!

2. Speaking of my sweet kiddos, they are not too thrilled about tomorrow either. On Tuesday one of them said in such a sad voice, "I don't want it to be Thursday because the day after that is Friday and you have to leave us!" I reassured them I don't want to either, but I have to move on to Third grade. I'm sure tomorrow will be bittersweet for all of us!

3. Tomorrow is Nellie girl's 7 month birthday! We just can't believe how big she is! More about her tomorrow or this weekend though!

4. Zach had another Calculus test this week. With Grandma Scheller's illness these past few weeks he didn't get much studying so he didn't do his best on the test. He was thrilled however because everyone did horribly on the test and the teacher is letting them do it over! : ) Praise the Lord!

5. Zach had to do his first over night job in Columbia, Kentucky Tuesday night. I was definitely sad he was leaving and didn't want to be alone, so Nellie and I packed up and went to Grandma and Grandpa's house (Zach's parents.) It was so nice because I could actually relax and sleep and they live closer to Boonville than we do so I got to sleep in! Thanks for letting us stay!

6. Suzanne lent me Nicholas Sparks' new book Safe Haven. I read it from front to back yesterday. It was so good, but so sad. I don't want to ruin it if you haven't read it, but in general it is about a woman who has run away from her extremely abusive husband to start a new life. It was so hard to read, because the sad truth is that this happens in real life to real women. I am so thankful because I know what a wonderful, loving, and caring husband I have. I can't imagine not having him in my life!

7. We went out to eat with our friends, Ryan and Kayleigh, tonight. We had Olive Garden and it was soooo yummy! Plus, we have left overs for lunch tomorrow.

8. This weekend it our little cousin, Norah Kate's, second birthday. We wish we could make it to her party, but after these past few weeks, we have not gotten to really rest at all, so we are just going to stay home! Happy 2nd Birthday, Norah Kate! We wish we could make it!

9. Ryan and Kayleigh were telling us about this new ice cream place in Newburgh called "Sweet Cece's." They went last night and said it was good, so we may look in to trying it out sometime this weekend!

10. We have been married 8 months as of this past Saturday! It's hard to believe that we are already thinking about plans for our first anniversary! Time sure does fly when you are having fun, though! : )

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a.  They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich.  That in and of itself made my day! : )                                                       Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day.  We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't.   We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics.  Can you feel the romance? Haha.                                                                                                     Yummy Whoopie Pie!                                                                                          My Valentine! Saturday morning began gloriously at 9:20 a.m. It seems like it's been forever since I slept that late, but it was wonderful!  I met my friend, Jennifer, and he

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas festivities started with Zach's family on Christmas Eve!  We opened presents and ate!  I'll let the pictures do most of the talking!  As you can see, Christmas is so more magical when there are little ones to spoil! : ) Mrs. Claus house shoes from Nana and Poppy!  Mmmmm, paper!  We got Zach's dad a long magnet on wheels.  We hope he liked it!! Haha, it was one of those gifts that was more of a necessity I think!  She was excited!  We are glad she liked it!  We got Zach's mom a record player that is a 5-in-1 system!  Isaiah's sweater we got him!  Its pockets are in the shape of monkey hands too, so I couldn't resist how cute it was!  He is a cute little monkey too!  Book set from us!  Love If You Give A Mouse.... series!  He is saying. "Ohhh, paper!  I love that!"  Make-up set from us!  He looooved the paper!  Isaiah opening his Leap Frog laptop from us!  He lik

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!
