It's a long day, but I LOVE being able to see my baby girl throughout the work day. It makes it so much easier to know that I will get to see her from time to time. Brian is JUST as busy with school and work, and we both do all we can to give her all our attention while she is awake. We have barely had any time to sit down this month, but we figure that's why God gave Julianne to us while we are young - we can take it!
This month, Julianne, Brian, and I went to the ASU game at The Dallas Cowboys Stadium (or is it AT&T stadium now?....eek!). It was SO much fun, and we had a great time cheering on the Rams from field level. We are so blessed to be a part of the alumni of Angelo State, and we will always bleed blue and gold. Brian has the privilege of serving on the ASU Alumni Board of Directors this year, and we are enjoying all that comes with that honor.
My cheerleaders are in full swing perfecting their nationals routine and preparing for games each week. We are having a blast together, and I am reminded why God has placed me to be a teacher and a coach at this point in my life....as difficult as it may be. Those precious girls light up my life and make me smile every day - I'll be forever grateful for their kind hearts!
Guess what we are doing already?!?! PLANNING A FIRST YEAR BIRTHDAY PARTY! I can't handle the thought, but making decorations for my gorgeous angel is so much fun - I AM LOVING IT!!! I already look forward to the day when we are planning her wedding......although, I can wait....at least 25 years!! We are so excited for all that we have going on this next month - may it fly by so that Christmas comes soon!
We love you all - thank you for always being supportive and for helping Brian, Julianne, and me become all we want to be.
From our family to yours...
