Birthdays

My niece is 4!

The party was princess theme :)

Notice one of my most daring cake creations to the left...Meredith was the cake director and I was the cake decorator :) We made a great team.

We also celebrated Mere's birthday! She is getting up there! I love rubbing it in...that's my job ;)

this gift was a big hit

soooo cute

Nat and her favorite uncle!

I just finished my first week of school. I am happy to announce that I am not afraid of any of my students this year! haha And, I am taller than the majority of my students--wohoo! They are pretty cute kids. It already feels SO much less stressful than last year, but it will be challenging now that they added another class to my schedule. I have a lot of kids to keep track of (about 150). It's nuts! Let's just say that the other night I easily went to be at 8:58 pm. Feels good to be putting in a hard day's work again....even if it makes me feel totally exhausted :)
