Some of Our Favorite Things

  • First of all, it is the end of October, so that means the semester is nearing it's end! We couldn't be happier about this! That means only 2 semesters left for me until graduation!
  • Lately I have been substituting for my part of the income. One day was in high school, which was TERRIBLE, and once in 1st grade. The first grade was bilingual and even though that sounds scary, it was amazing! I loved those kids! I came home speaking Spanglish, it was awesome. 1st grade is my dream so today was really fun! I got more hugs than I can even count.
  • Marvin has recently discovered an amazing blog through a friend of ours! There are so many delicious things on here that we thought we would share it! The cheese tortellini soup is our recommendation so far...
  • Texas is the best dog anyone could ever ask for! He enjoys napping with us, or going to the dog park. He is so sweet! We just love him!

Home Sweet Home

If we ever got to be here that would be nice! HA! We are staying so busy! School and work are leaving us NO time for anything else. We got a calling at church to teach the CTR 5 class! It is so much fun! We have a great group of kids here! They are all very well behaved. School for me is amazing. It's so busy but very rewarding. I'm so close to graduation and I'm starting to get VERY excited! Marvin is applying to University of Houston for next semester. Hopefully that will work out well because I will be doing my student teaching the next semester and it would be great to be in Cy-Fair ISD for that. They like to hire their own! Work is crazy, Marvin is working about 45 hours a week. He is a champ! Managing to work more than full time and be in school full time. I am so proud of him!
Well, there isn't much to update. We are so busy we can't breathe, but we are happy! :)
