Here are a few pics of our first weeks of school. Levi adjusted well, so his teacher texted me this pic of him one afternoon. Her son, Hardison, is in my class. She texts him pics and he shows me. He calls them DLP (daily Levi pic) because we do DLP (daily Language practice) every day in my class. We also went to our first football game, which was fun, and this is also a pic of a sweet letter that Lofton wrote his first week.

First Day of School

I've been offered a position at Goodpasture for the past three years. The past two it was for a part time position, but this year, I was offered a full time job teaching 10th grade English. After a lot of praying, I knew that this is where God wants me to be. I know it's the best move for the boys. Lofton was so excited; Landon wasn't thrilled though he wouldn't have been no matter where he went, and Levi of course wasn't prepared for how different his world would be. However, it's been three weeks, and I am thrilled to say that I've been on time every day; the boys love it- even Levi who didn't cry this past Friday, which was the first day without tears. We are all adjusting, and we are thrilled to be in a place where God is first!

Soakin up the Fun

We enjoyed our last week of summer before school started with some fun at the zoo, aunt He He's, and at the park with our friends. We stayed out late playing night tag and catching fire flies and doing all the summer things we love best.

Summer Concert Fun

Since seeing Aerosmith with Julie in December for my birthday, we have been quite the concert goers. We went to Maroon 5 and Jimmy Buffet, and this summer we saw Beyoncé and New Kids on the Block.
