10 Day You Challenge

Six of the most glorious places in the world to me



6. Home Sweet Home. Nothing can beat it, especially when you've lived there your entire life. I love my parents' house and you can tell I still refer to it as home.

5. Our house. Yes, it is hard to call it home, but I am still working on it. I do love to come home and think about all we have done our little house and all of the memories we have already made here. It's where we settled in after our honeymoon, it's where we brought in our precious Nellie into our family, and it's where we celebrated our first Christmas as a married couple. So in a lot of ways it is becoming "home-ish." : )

4.Mama Joyce's house. It's where my brother, sister, and I spent many summer days and days after school. Less than half a mile from my parents' house it was our second home. We learned that we weren't supposed to baptize kittens or chase the chickens, but we could certainly pick up gum balls and sticks so the yard could be mowed. If only I could recount all the memories....

3. Florida. Our constant vacation spot. Sun, sand, water, and food. Who could ask for more?

2. Bellfield Baptist Church. Another place I have grown up in physically and spiritually. Also, half of the church is my family, so you are always well informed! ; )

1. Germany. I have been, and so want to get to go with Zach, hopefully in the next couple of years before we have kids. It was such an amazing experience and I loved to getting to be in the country my great grandparents hailed from.

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!
