Anniversary


On October 9th Jeff and I celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary! 2 years, wow we are blessed! Last year I found this really neat idea on Pinterest where you take a picture of you and your spouse every year on your anniversary holding a picture from the year before. Last year we had dinner at home, so last year's picture is us holding our wedding picture in the entry way of our house. This year we were able to go to Ruth Chris' Steakhouse. Our wonderful waiter took the picture for us. My plan is to do this every year. Then we will be able to look back at this picture and see every wedding anniversary like a window. 





The anniversary festivities continued at the State vs. Syracuse football game! Thank you special friends for thinking of us again this year! :)

It started off being kind of cloudy, but pretty good weather.


By half-time it was drizzling a little bit, but we were at a State game so it didn't bother us at all!


And yes, me being the nerd of this relationship, took a picture of the marching band!

I thought I took a picture of the actual football game, but nope...just the band!


We ended our weekend with a walk around Duke Gardens. We met some friends and got to participate in some fall festival activities that Duke Gardens had. 

All in all, we are very blessed and are looking forward to spending many more anniversaries together!

Bunny

About a year ago I got a bunny as my classroom pet. I have wanted a Netherland Dwarf bunny for quite some time because of their cute ears and they stay small. Small bunny = perfect for classoom life. So after the beloved Max (my old guinea pig) left us, I knew now was the time to get a bunny! Thank goodness my sister Anna looks on Craigs List all the time for animals because she actually found a Netherland Dwarf Bunny that was up for adoption! YAY! I got her a couple of days after I found the post and was so excited. The kids decided to name her Maddi after a character in the book Fever 1793 . If you like historical fiction books,  you should check it out because it's really good! Little did I know that bunnies are full of personality! On her first day home she bit me 3 times and got me 2 times with her nails. Good thing is now she likes me (most of the time) and is much more friendly! She lets the kids in the class pet her and feed her. She also hops around the classroom....

21 Weeks Update

I've been really bad about keeping up with these pregnancy pictures...life just gets so crazy sometimes! We had some exciting things happen this week as you can see in the picture. 1- It's a girl! I was completely convinced that we were having a boy. I had boy dreams, no morning sickness, and Jeff comes from a family of 2 brothers and 2 nephews. Needless to say, I was completely shocked! Don't get me wrong, I  am very excited to have a baby girl, just very shocked! 2- I'm halfway through my pregnancy. This is crazy! Time has really been flying! I have a friend at work who is also pregnant and is one day behind me. She brought me a bagel one morning to celebrate our 1/2 way point. This was so needed because I completely forgot to eat breakfast that morning! Thanks Melissa! 3- I play french horn for my church orchestra. My belly is now starting to get in the way of my bell, pushing it out of the way! Our little girl likes to dance a lot when I play. It is...

Grandkids Make Life Grand

While perusing Pinterest one day I came across this really good idea:   I thought to myself that both my mom and Jeff's mom would really like this! So the crafting began. First I painted a wood board the colors that both ladies wanted. My mom wanted yellow and purple and Jeff's mom wanted tan and red. Next I played around until I found the right size for the letters. Then I cut them out of vinyl on my handy-dandy Cricut: I got some contact paper and lifted up the vinyl letters: Then I lined the letters up on the wood and attached: This is just me making sure that all of the edges are pushed down: And viola! The words are finished! To finish I added a ribbon on the back, ribbon flowers, and small clothes pins to hang pictures with. The final touch was adding pictures of the grandkids. After making this Jeff and I decided that we really liked it...so I might be making something similar for ourselves!
