New Minds to Inspire

One full week of school is complete. Things went well, and I feel like I am going to have a great year. I have high hopes and a lot of faith that my students will do great. Poor Zeus hated last week though. He doesn't like when his routine gets messed up. I use the word "routine" loosely... All he did all summer was nap, move to another room, nap again, and repeat the process several times. Haha. So although I was sad to see another summer come and go, I feel like I'm on the right path and doing the job I was meant to do. I hope I will continue to be the role model that my teachers were for me. They were truly amazing people in every way. They left big shoes to fill, but I'm trying my best.

Back to School... Almost!

This is the last weekend of summer break '09. It's been a really great summer (except for the crazy heat). I'm sad that sleeping in is almost gone, but Zeus usually woke us up before 7:30am anyway. Here's to the last two days before meeting the next 100 young minds I hope to inspire to do great things! :)

Zeus makes me one proud puppy-mama! ;)

Destin Part II (Finally!)

So here's a little post about the rest of our Destin Trip! We took pics on the beach one evening to take full advantage of the glow of the setting sun. Then we ate dinner at The Back Porch (phenominal lobster stuffed mahi mahi by the way) and went go-cart racing at Big Kahunas. Here's a few more snapshots of our time in Florida:

Sunburnt- ouch! This was our last full day on the beach. :) It rained on us the entire drive home through Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, but not a drop of rain once we hit Texas. Go figure.
