Today is a really special day for my Dad...not only is it Father's Day, its his birthday! Happy Birthday Daddy and Happy Father's Day! I love you!

Happy Anniversary!!!

Wow does a year go by so fast!! I am so blessed to have such a wonderful man in my life! I can't wait to see what God has in store for us as we spend many, many more years together! I love you Riley and Happy Anniversary!!

Wow...its really been 2 months!

I admit it...I have been a slacker! I have been reading everyone else's blogs but just haven't foung the time or energy to update my own. All the teachers out there know that the end of the school year is as busy if not busier than the beginning of the school year. Here are a few things that have been going on in my life the past two months...

* Closing out the school year! uugh...hate it every year!
* I decided to move from 1st grade to Kindergarten ( I know many of you think that isnt much of a jump but 1st grade is stressfull and I am very excited about teaching Kindergarten!) Afterall the one person that made me want to be a teacher was my kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Clements. By the way...I have enjoyed reading about her in your blogs!
*Going to the beach for a few weekends...we went to Fairhope and then Riley luckily had a conference in Destin right before Memorial weekend so we went down for that and I headed down with a teacher friend and a couple of girls to orange beach the day school let out!!
* Our one year is approaching...cant believe its been a year!
*planning one of my best friend, Kimberly's baby shower at the end of the month
*we bought a boat for the lake this summer...its older but its fun and it runs! haha

Thats pretty much it in a nutshell....Becca and Mom I promise I will do better and I will post pictures soon! :)

We had a great time last weekend at the Arts Festival. The weather was perfect!! We laid out on the beach all day Friday and then spent all day Saturday at the Festival. The art is just amazing there. A lot of it I would never find a spot for it in my house but its very interesting. We did actually buy a few things this year. We bought his parents a painting of a Fairhope sunset to put in the house down there and also a smaller painting of the town. For ourselves, we just bought a couple of small paintings to go in the room with the pool table. Maybe next year we can buy a nice painting for ourselves.

This entire road was filled with all different kinds of food

Some of the artists would work right thereJimmy Buffet's sister, Lulu

Arts and Crafts Festival

We are heading down to Fairhope tomorrow for the Arts and Crafts Festival! I am so excited because we went last year and it was so much fun and just so much art you wouldnt believe...most I couldn't afford but it was very nice looking at all the streets and streets filled with it!! I am ready for a least this long weekend...I am very jealous of all the March Spring Breakers (ours isnt until April!!!!)

Read Across America

Today was Dr. Seuss's Birthday so we celebrated it at school with Read Across America Day. My co-workers and I dressed up as the Cat in the Hat, Thing 1 and 2. I did this last year too and the kids just love it! I mean who doesnt love a teacher with blue hair? haha I also cooked green eggs and ham and we had lots of visitors come read to us. It was very eventful, but a fun day for the kids. Here are a few pictures.
