Suuuuuuuper excited!

2010 ~2011 school year!

It's a nice beginning to a new year, kids seem nice, got all my crap together and feeling a little more organized than last year.   I'm excited about this year and looking forward to some new experiences.

Life's a beach!

South Pardre Island is awesome, the best part about this trip besides the fact that we're at the beach is there are hardly any tourists. The beach is empty, and Traffic is great. Yesterday we went into town (Brownsville) to old navy, and to eat at chillis. This little getaway was a great last minute idea before school starts. Well, headed out to the beach. Hopefully tomorrow we
Can catch the sunrise :)

New driver on the road .... Watch out!

We're sitting at the DL office right now waiting for Lauren to take the driving test. She's sooooo nervous. These people that work here... Seriously???? Can they be a anymore rude?? I mean what a total BEE! it wouldn't kill you, lady, to smile and be nice. Being bitter only makes you old and have wrinkles.

South Padre Island

I've been wanting to catch some rays badly, but the Miami plans were kinda ruined with the "tropical storm".  So I started thinking South Padre. I started to check hotels and found an amazing deal for $49 a night at the WindWater Resort. We'll be there from the 8th - 12th.   Doesn't look half bad for the cheap price.  It's been years since I went down there and we had some good times. Can't wait to post pictures.

I love this app!!

I just found this app on my iPhone. Yay!! Blogging at my fingertips :)
$2.99 so worth it.

Not a baby anymore.

 Lauren had a birthday party to go to other night, so we went to MAC to get her make up done.
When they were done, I was amazed that my little baby could look so grown up! :'(
What happened  to her?
Either way she looks beautiful.

Sabrina Jenks Photography

Well, it's that time of year again for Lauren to have her pictures made. Sabrina Jenks is the sweetest!!! We went to the Botanic gardens in Ft. Worth, and had these unique shots made.
Lauren was sooooo happy. It's hard to believe my little girl is 16! I feel old. :'(
I just wanted to share these with you. I'm sad Sabrina will be moving to California. She'll make a stop in Arizona, then California.
Good luck in everything you do, Thanks again.

Egypt... Cairo, Taba, and Dahab

I've been terrible at blogging since I started working.. Having said that, teaching is no easy task. I've been teaching high school Spanish 2. The kids are great, and I'm enjoying my new found career very much. One of the greatest perks of being a teacher is all the time off of course. Having the same holidays off as Lauren and not to mention the whole summer off. We were lucky enough to go to Egypt last month. It was an amazing trip needless to say. Cairo was breathtaking, we had a great tour guide named Vanda, who was full of knowledge of this fabulous country. We were very lucky. Not only were the pyramids of Giza amazing to see, but also the Red Sea.... wow is all I can say! We had the great fortune of not only visiting Cairo, but also Taba and Dahab. The Red Sea was spectacular! The culture was unique and the people were terrific. Here are some pictures of our trip.. Hope to be back blogging more frequently.

Here again....

I've been neglecting my blog.. I've had sooo much going on lately.
It seems I have no time in the day for anything but sleep and work.
I'm in the process of writing an update of the last 6 months..
more to come..
