We celebrated Matt’s 32nd birthday on August 26th. We had planned to celebrate with dinner over the weekend but Dean, Ronny, Carla and I surprised Matt with presents and dinner on his actual birth date.
We also enjoyed a sushi dinner & movie on Saturday while Dean played at Glenda and Bills house. I think Matt enjoyed his special day.
My first two weeks back at work were pretty brutal. I am so glad the students are back! Here’s how I survived the THOUSANDS of schedule changes…
A little Diet Coke (with Caffeine) and lemon drops – Thanks Glenda for bringing me the good ones! Oh, and the reality check of my personal email every now and then.

Dean and I are back in the swing of things with school is back in session. Dean is loving his time in the infant 2 class at the ECDC. There are 7 other “students” in his class many of whom he went to school with last year.
I am thankful to return to the same position at CHHS for a second year. It’s been 3 years since I returned to the same position for a second time. I have such a homey feeling when I walk into CHHS. I love the ladies in the counseling office and feel so blessed to be in such a wonderful environment.
Here are our first day of school pictures:
