Halloween 2008

Halloween 2008

We love Halloween and enjoyed it so much this year!! We celebrated twice!! We had to drive to South Georgia early Saturday morning, but it was sooooo worth it!! We trick or treated (is that right?) at home Friday night then went to trunk or treat at Emaline's school. That was fun. . .but nothing like Rochelle, GA. Daddy told me that they do it right!! We somehow procured a spot on Daddy's neighbor's hayride to trick or treat! We were not the only hayride either! They were everywhere! And talk about decorating!! I hope you can tell by the somewhat dark pictures how they go all out!! It was awesome!! I have never seen anything like it, and neither has Emaline!! Thanks Mr. Kelly for saving us a spot on the hayride!! We accept your invitation!! We will be back next year!! Please save our seats!!

You will see lots of pics with Grandaddy!! Emaline HAD to sit on the Harley!! She had not seen it until this weekend. Thanks Daddy!! We had a GREAT weekend!!

Fall Getaway

Fall Getaway

We took a quick trip to the beach last weekend. We figured that the water would be too cold, so we didn't dress Emaline to swim at the beach. What a mistake we made! She got soaked!! We just let her play!! It was a wonderful weekend!! We should do it more often for sure!! We haven't posted in a while because we have been so super busy!! Kindergarten is going great at KCS!! I am loving 7th grade at OMMS!! We both learn a lot every day!!

Kindergarten- First Day!!!

Yesterday, August 7th, was Emaline's first day of kindergarten!! She was so excited!! There are 12 children in her class including three of her best friends from 4K and another little girl that we will start our fourth year of dance with. Her teacher, Mrs. Herring, certainly has her work cut out for her with these little divas!! This is going to be such a fun school year!!

Good News!!

I accepted a job today with Oak Mountain Middle School!! I will be teaching 7th grade literature and 7th grade gifted literature. I have agreed to pursue a second master's degree in gifted education. And so... the adventure continues!! I start teacher orientation on July 30th. I am so grateful for this opportunity!! Oak Mountain has a wonderful school system!!
