And so it begins...

Today was my first real day of summer with no work!  I am excited to rest, relax, and just enjoy my time off.  When school starts back up it is going to be interesting since I am teaching at a new school next year.  I will no longer be at St. Joseph...I am going to be teaching in Houston ISD.  I am excited and nervous, but right now I just want to enjoy my summer.

There are several projects that I want to tackle, and yesterday my aunt added to the list.  Apparently she had every intention of making me a wedding scrapbook, but just never really got down to it.  She gave me all kinds of stuff for it though, the book, paper, stickers, pictures, etc. so now I have everything I need to get it done.  I am not a huge scrapbooker.  I am more of an album or frame kind of girl.  The goal is to have a wedding scrapbook completed this summer!

Organization...

It pretty much rained at our house all day on Saturday.  Nick and I decided to take that time to organize all of our paperwork.  We still had everything separated into our two expandable folders from when we were not married, and decided that after being married a year it was time to condense and combine.  We took all of this madness...

and turned it into this fabulous, organized drawer...

While we were doing this our children (the dogs of course!) were playing with their new presents.  I got some teddy bears from students for Valentine's Day, and decided that the puppies would have more fun with them then I would.  They also played in the box that the new filing cabinet came in!

By the way, we are pretty sure that Mouse is double jointed or something.  He is the one on the right in the first picture...I have never seen a dog lay with their hips out like that and completely flat on the floor.  He looks so funny, but that is how he has always laid!
