2 years!

Today Adam and I have officially been married for 2 years! I can't believe it, it feels like just yesterday. 2 years and I love him more than ever, which means that it just gets better with time!! Being married to my best friend is so much fun! Today was also my first official day of break. I have enjoyed sleeping in and getting a few things done around the house things that will not happen quite as often when I start teaching. That is it for now, back to the laundry...

Let it snow, let it snow, let it SNOW!!

Well it wasn't supposed to start snowing until 9 am this morning but when we woke up we already had a lot of snow on the ground. So exciting - and it has been snowing all day so we are getting tons of snow. Tomorrow could be another snow day for church that is!

Today was the day. Today was the day I finally graduated from ISU - it is about time! I am done and start my job in January. I am excited to see how God is going to use me in Decatur. I am sure He has some big plans that I am not quite prepared for yet, but I will get there. It is so nice to have a little break and then be thrown into real life. Well I guess it isn't thrown, I kind of chose to do it, but it is exciting and scary all at the same time. After graduation today my family surprised me with a dinner a J Bucks which was delicious!! After our yummy dinner Adam and I spent a long time driving home, because we could only drive 30 mph because the roads were so bad. All in all it has been a great day!

Well it is time for some snuggling and a movie...

4 Days and Counting...

I am so ready to be one with this student teaching...only 4 days left but if we get the weather that they are expecting maybe that will turn into just 3 days! I can't wait to have my own classroom! Other then my wanting to be done with student teaching not a whole lot is going on so here are a few pictures from our small group Christmas party last weekend!


And a few of little Micah...


Such a sweet little boy, he is even holding my finger! Well I am still praying for a snow day maybe I will get one tomorrow!

Starbuck

Here is our baby... an American Eskimo named Starbuck. Here are a few pictures of him growing over the 6 months we have had him!


One of his first pictures...

He loves to sleep on his back... too cute!

Slowly he is getting bigger...


This is him today at 25 lbs, with a treat hanging out of his mouth!

I guess I skipped a month or two in there, but you get the idea. He just have grown up so fast, but he is still our baby!

The First of Many

So I have been sucked in to the blogging world. I just realized that I keep up with a lot of other people's life events through their blog so what better way for me (and Adam) to keep everyone updated.

Church and youth group was canceled today because of the ice - this never happens so we are taking the day to relax and enjoy it! I need to start getting all of my paper work filled out for Decatur and call them with the load of questions I have for them. Today hopefully I will get started on my lesson plans for next semester so I will be prepared to start -I just need to get a little motivated, which is hard because I haven't seen a paycheck yet!

This has been an amazing week - not only did Adam get a free (no vacation used) Sunday but we were able to see our new nephew which was also exciting. We had a few friends over on Friday night which was great to be able to see them, and then Saturday night we had a small group Christmas party, which was tons of fun!! Well my first blog is officially over... hopefully this will be the first of many.

Praying for a snow day...
