Just another week

This week was spent with me teaching and Brian looking for a job.  I am really enjoying my second graders.  They are cute and like school which makes it fun to work with them.  I do come home exhausted, however.  

Brian starts school tomorrow, which doesn't really excite him.  It will be a busy semester with all of the hard classes he is taking.  

Other than that this week has just been a normal, uneventful week.

My first week of school

This week I went back to school, but this time as a 2nd grade teacher.  The kids came back on Wednesday.  It's been fun.  They are so cute and for the most part eager to learn.  It is so exhausting, however.  They require a lot more attention than 5th graders did, but I'm still enjoying it.  I have 24 students and I hope it stays that way, it is such a nice round number to be able to split into groups, etc.  

We've also been looking for a new apartment.  The one we are in is just too small, we are outgrowing it.  We found a whole house for rent, for about the same price that we're paying now.  It has 2 bedrooms and a loft that could also be used for a guest bedroom.  We will probably be moving in 3 weeks.  We don't look forward to moving all of the stuff we've accumulated since we've been married, but we can't wait to have  more room and a house all to ourselves!

My last week of summer

This week was my last week of summer and it was only half a week.  I started school on Thursday with meetings etc.  I have Monday and Tuesday of next week to work on my room and planning and then the students come Wednesday.  I have so much to do before I am ready for them to come back.  Hopefully I can get it all done in the next 2 days.  

This week was fairly uneventful, however on monday night we went to dinner with Weston and Kirstie to The Mayan Restaurant.  It was our first time there and we really enjoyed it.  It kind of looks like a jungle with a waterfall and pool down at the bottom.  Then every 40 minutes or so they do a show with people doing cool dives into the pool.  It was such a neat experience.  

We went and saw Star Trek yesterday.  I have never been interested in Star Trek before, but I had hear this movie was pretty good so we decided to go.  We both really liked it, unfortunately I don't think the series is anything like it.

So thus ends our first summer married and with neither of us working.  We had a lot of fun this summer and created a lot of new memories that we will have forever.
