september

I haven't posted anything in a while, so I thought I'd share some highlights of the past few weeks.
  • Max and I went to Austin to visit Chloe and Andrew. We had a blast and Max made a new friend!!!
  • I have some new favorite songs. I love The Way I Am by Ingrid Michaelson. It's the song off of the new Old Navy commercial. I also have fallen in love with Joshua Radin, especially his song called Only You. If you like laid back, acoustic-style music, you would probably like these two artists.
  • Teaching is going really well. We have started our literacy stations and they are making life TONS easier! I really feel like I'm being a good teacher and that the kids are taking responsibility for their own learning.
  • Matthew and I went to our last Ranger's game a few weeks ago.:( I can't wait til next season!!
  • Our one-year anniversary is next week!
  • I'm still really liking the church I'm going to (it's called Forest Grove Christian Church). I'm hoping to get involved really soon.
  • I'm trying to volunteer at a hospital, holding the newborn babies! I've been sending out emails, so I'll keep you posted.
  • I'm so excited about the upcoming holidays! I love making holiday crafts with my class, buying Christmas presents early, and anticipating cold weather! (I may get to anticipate for a while!!!!!).
  • Matthew and I are about to start watching the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. I've never seen them, but so many people say they're good. I'll give it a try.
Well, I think that's it for now. Enjoy your week!!

Aww, Chloe! I haven't seen that girl in FOR-EV-ER! And Amy, it's good to hear that you're doing well. Don't be a stranger, neighbor! Catch me on Facebook sometime. Take care and God bless, my friend!
