A summer in pictures

Alas, as I sit and write this I have 13 more hours of 'summer' until I report for work tomorrow morning at 7 AM.  Therefore, instead of spending time writing, I'll just post a few highlight pictures of our fun little summer as it's days like these that give me something to look forward to in the middle of a hectic football season. 
At this point, I'd also like to take this opprotunity to say to my wonderful husband, Andrew, that it's been awesome seeing you everyday, and I look forward to hanging out with you once November rolls along. (Please please please, HCHS football team DON'T make the playoffs).  (no bitterness here...)
A nice day to visit Jamaica
Chile and Won Ton discovered that not only could they hunt squirrls, but also climb trees to hunt squirrls!
Chris moved out!  And bought us a fancy grinder to celebrate!
I discovered my new favorite flowers were Gladiolas!
Andrew discovered he could run 4.5 miles!  He also discovered that I signed him up for a half marathon in Atlanta...ha!
This is me after my longest run ever, 7 miles!  Gotta love the stylish headband.
This is my Nook (although those are not my hands), it is an e-reader and I've read around 15 books since May! Love, Love, Love!!! 
Although I don't have a picture for it, I'm proud to say that this is my 6th year teaching, practically a milestone for any band directors as a big percentage quit after their first year.  Go me.
So anyways, its been fun!

  1. I cannot believe that most band directors quit after their 1st year! That is insane...the one that I had in highschool has been doing it for 20 + years! Anyway, congrats on the great summer...Beca!

  3. The headband looks great. But it's the tongue coming out of your mouth look that is really all the rage right now. :-)
