What kind of forwards do you get?

It's funny-when I get forwards from friends it's usually about friendship...maybe recipes. When Walker gets them, it's about boobs. There's something not right about this.

Walker and I are trying to move into current times. We both joined facebook, though we have no clue what we're doing and aren't sure if we want our business out there. We'll see how long it lasts. So far we found a girl Walker and Vin both know very well-and she lives in Hattiesburg, about an hour away from us!

Have you ever had a job you really liked, with a culture you didn't think you'd find anywhere else, but then a new boss is hired and everything changes? You go from doing your best and feeling great about it with rave reviews from bosses to totally questioning what you're doing and receiving lower scores than you've ever gotten on reviews. I know Andrea and I have talked about this some. It's what's going on at my school-32 year veterans all the way down to rookies. Sad, really. I just keep telling myself it's not about me, it's for the kids that deserve the best I can offer.

Our first party!

Walker and I hosted our first party last night. We had a few people over to hand out candy, then we had a fire in the back and made s'mores. It was definitely a good time, though we have way too many leftovers!

The joys in our life right now are coming after work and on weekends...if you catch my drift. I still love the kids at school and am having fun with the cheerleaders, but I'm definitely ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks. There's not much for Walker to say about his job at this point.

Lisa and Sean have a new healthy baby girl, Maggie and Craig have a healthy baby boy, and Carmen and Jason have their second baby boy! It's truly a blessing to become aunt and uncle again! Hopefully we'll meet all the new babies soon!
