RIP Beethoven

Our cat Beethoven has passed away. He will be missed.

I'm back.... I think.

My life has been consumed with work for the last 2 months... But now, I think I have the hang of things. I love it. The kids are great, and the teachers I work with are amazing. The first six weeks are out of the way, and I had no child fail my class. That's a good thing. So many things have happened since I blogged last. Fabian and Angie moved back to Texas from D.C. They're living in Coppell, and we're excited to have them back!! My mom went to Colombia for a week. She brought back candy for my students.. they loved it. I got a new car. Well, it's for Lauren really. She's been wanting a Ford Mustang for years!! and she'll be 16 soon, so I bought it to drive until her birthday, then I will get my dream car. Well, I'm not gonna make this very long. I'm just excited to report I love my job. So glad I stuck it out. Anyway! Here are the pictures. :)

School!!

Well, it's the 4th week of school, and it's getting better. The first 3 weeks were brutal!! I barely get enough sleep, and I'm pretty much tired the whole week. I want to do something for the weekend, but by the time the weekend comes around all I wanna do is SLEEP! I'm getting to know my kids... (all 160 of them). I have shy ones, sweet ones, and the ones who want to take me out on dates. LOL
I'm grateful to be working with some great teachers that have taken me in, and helped me out a lot!
Life is good right now.

The annual Suicide walk is coming up, I hope my friends can make it.
Pictures..... coming soon.

La Clase de Español

The past 2 weeks have been a little stressful as I have been overloaded with information... I'm literally on overload! Fortunately, I have a pretty awesome team of teachers that have taken me under their wing.

to be continued.... ( have to go get ready for work )

Home Sweet Texas!

Paris was fun... life is free there. Everyone lives. They take time out to smell the flowers.
Enough said. (but so so glad to be home.)

AU REVOIR Dallas!!! Hello Paris

Lauren and I leave for Paris today. I cannot wait. I know I'll forget something. Can't wait to blog about our trip

Family Pictures on the beach = disaster!

So... on a windy day, when every one is in a bad mood we try to take these pictures just before our family reunion! ha ha ha !!!!

Family Reunion !!

We attended our family reunion this past week, and it was an indescribable feeling being around all my family.. It was also a celebration for my grandmothers 85th birthday. I know most of the people who visit my blog are my friends on facebook, so that's why I've been a little slacker on updating my blog! So, not much more to say about that, pictures are worth a thousand words.. LOL
