Halloween: November 8th

Who says you can ONLY paint pumpkins on Halloween? It was a little late, but we decided to paint them anyways. I decorated mine with some of my travels from this year (Cali, Philly, New York, Cananda, Illinois, Mexico, Utah, Oregon and Hawaii in a few weeks). Tim did an amazing job with a scene from our future Hawaii trip :) It was incredibly fun!

Trip to Cali! We get to back in a few weeks!

Niagara Falls!! Canada and New York for our School Art trip

Trip to Philly to see the FAM

Awesome husband :)

Mexico Trip - Yes, that is me swimming in the ocean. Tim is the pink one on the sand! He did get REALLY burned while we were there!

This was Tim's Picture! I'm the one surfing and he's swimming out to me. I love it!!

Fall Break In Philly!

Being a teacher comes with some great benefits: 1) I get to teach very happy kids 2) The kids say really funny things like " I think Yehuda left his Bikini in your room." "You mean his Yamaka?" 3) I don't work weekends and 4) I get a whole week off in October as well as March. Pretty sweet! For fall break I went to Philly to see the whole Fam (well, almost all - Matman is staying strong on his Mission!)! Jen and Brookie came from California and then Mom, Stace, and Dad came from Peru. Tom and Bob (and Emily And Sheri) allowed us to infiltrate their houses with people, luggage, and love! A million thanks to them!! We had such a wonderful time being with our family. This was the first time we had seen Tom and Sheri since their wedding last year and what better way to enjoy seeing each other than to spend a weekend all cuddled up! What an amazing blessing to spend a few days with our wonderful family. We also got to be there for Baby Anna's Blessing as well as Claire's! We also went to a pumpkin patch, painted pumpkins, and just enjoyed being together! What a wonderful week!
