Hello, Autumn!

It is fall now... although some days it still feels like summer! Steven and I are getting all geared up for cooler weather. We have our autumn decorations out and some sweaters. We haven't had to use them yet, but we are hoping to in the next few weeks.

Steven has started a new job as Educational Sales Rep at Howren Music. He loves assisting band directors in the area and traveling daily. It is such a great job for him and he is really enjoying it!!

I am still teaching middle school and they are definitely keeping me busy. The kids are really great and the year is going well so far.

We are looking forward to what the rest of the year will bring. My goal is to update the blog weekly... we will see if that is going to happen! :)

Happy New Year!

Wow. One of my New Year's Resolution needs to be not waiting 6 months to post on this blog! It is now January, 2010 and Steven and I are back in school. We are both getting ready for the District Musical Performance Assessment, formerly known as "contest." We are both taking our 8th grade bands for ratings and hoping that everything will go ok!

Christmas was wonderful with both of our families. It was a nice, quiet celebration of Christ's birth at home together then at my parent's house for a family Christmas.

We haven't added to our family lately with any pets. We still have our fat, lazy cat, Felix -- our adorable baby, Buddy -- and the cute, lovable beagle, Gracie. They keep us running around and cleaning up after them. They make our life complete.

That is all for now. I promise that I will write sooner this time. Happy New Year and God Bless! :)
