School Starts Tomorrow

It's Sunday, July 27th... and school starts tomorrow. I've been back at work since Tuesday so I am excited to meet my new students. In addition to teaching 4 classes of science, I am also teaching one section of AVID- an elective class. I'm really excited about that group of kids- it will be a lot of extra work, but I think it will be fun.
I love the energy and excitement that revolves around the first day of school... and I love buying new school supplies! Ok, I like buying new clothes too, but I just can't resist walking past an aisle of colorful markers, crayons, and lined paper. Josh thinks I'm ridiculous, of course, but I think secretly he likes shopping with me! :)
I guess that is all that is new around here. Josh and I did some yard work today (ok, Josh did most of it... but I did help a little!) and then we laid in the pool for a while. It was actually really relaxing until my skin started to burn off. Oops.

Early One Sunday Morning...

Well, here it is 12:10am and I am still awake. Josh and I just got back from a co-worker's house where we enjoyed a wonderful BBQ! It is nice to get together with people that Josh works with, especially because they see a whole different side of him at work. Unfortunately, the dogs weren't able to join us on this adventure, so they were locked in their cages this evening. All of our clocks are blinking so apparently the power went out... I'm glad the dogs weren't running free because they probably would have freaked out. I don't think I left anything on, but I'm sure they could feel it or something.

Duke is now laying on the couch next to me and Dutchess is attempting to finish her breakfast/dinner.

Nothing else exciting around here.... I guess I will post some random pictures. :)
