We returned home this weekend from a fabulous beach vacation in Orange Beach. I will post pics soon. We all had an incredible time. We went to see the lighthouse in Pensacola and it was definitely a sight to see. After 177 steps it was worth the wait for the incredible view. We went on a dolphin cruise and it was the best we've had in 10 years. The beaches were more beautiful than we anticipated with the media hype.
I received a phone call from my grad school professor that I had passsed my comprehensive finals which was a huge relief since it was pass/fail and the final requirement for graduation. I will graduate in August. I am thankful to all who have made this dream possible for me, especially my family.
Next week sweet Raegan will turn 3! I can't believe it. She will be starting swim lessons which are greatly needed since she has spent most of the summer in the pool. I hope she enjoys it! She will also start preschool in the fall. This a bittersweet moment for us because it she's growing up way too fast. She is ready to make new friends and learn lots of new things. She has picked out some new school shoes already and we got her a Dora lunch box and backpack for her birthday. This girl really loves Dora.
Many changes are happening at work. Our principal retired and a new one has been hired so things will be different for us. At first I was sad about the change but I am now looking forward to what is in store. I will be teaching both honors and regular biology next semester so that means I will have to do a little summer planning to be on track. With less than a month left it seems like the summer has almost passed me by. I am looking forward to the challenge and the opportunity.
So what's going on with you....blog readers? How has your summer been?
