well you're in luck. this is the post for you. here's a short list of what's been going on around here.
1. we celebrated our 1st anniversary with a trip to st. louis.
we stayed in a fancy hotel in the central west end, ate tons of delicious food, toured washington university (that's where clay went to undergrad and i had never been), ate lunch at the loop, got harassed on the metro by a bunch of cardinals fans, watched the royals beat the cardinals, ate the best crepe i've ever put in my mouth, saw the arch and so much more!
i can't believe a whole year has passed. it has been filled with so many amazing blessings that i never could have expected and i can't wait to experience so many more with my favorite person in the world.
2. i finished my first year of teaching in kc!
the end of the year was absolutely crazy. the 4th grade had an ice cream sundae shop and raised $700 for children's mercy hospital (we were on the news and in the newspaper), field day was canceled and then rescheduled and i said goodbye to all my little darlings.
it was so busy, but let me tell you...it sure is nice to be done for a few months!
3. and last but definitely not least...we got a puppy!
how cute is she? her name is lucy and she's 10 weeks old. she is a goldendoodle, which is a golden retreiver and standard poodle. we just picked her up from the breeder yesterday and she is adjusting pretty well.
stay tuned for a great story about our introduction into dog ownership. that's right...it gets its very own post.
well folks, that's my life in a few sentences.
i promise to be around more, post more and comment on your blogs more now that school is out.
