Can I please have my summer vacation now!

One of the many joys of being a teacher is that you get to have summers off! Well, I would like for things to slow down so I can have mine now. As you know from previous posts we have bought a house, painted, cleaned, and moved in. We moved the weekend I got out of school, then I started teaching summer school on June 2. I will say on a side note, that I have enjoyed it. I only have 2 kiddos and they are supper cute! You read in my previous post about Tammy, which came as a shock. Then last Tuesday, my mom had her knee replaced in Birmingham. Everything went GREAT! She is doing well, sore of course but you know Diann, she is going to power through so she can get back to her busy life! She started Therapy yesterday, said it was pretty strong, but what she expected. All she could say was thank goodness for Lortab!!!! As I said she had her surgery in Birmingham, which was convenient for me, as my dad stayed at our house (she was in the hospital Tuesday-Friday) so I had to keep him happy and fed! I came back with mom and dad on Friday to help out at home and am going back to Birmingham today (Tuesday).

Some of you may remember I got married a year ago this coming up weekend! I know, can you believe it has already been a year???? Time flies when you are having fun! Also, the week before I got married Baby James was born (first "Holston" boy to Lee and Stacy). He turned one yesterday, and is as cute as ever! While in Montgomery, I took Sarah to see "Up" it was a pretty cute movie, I think she enjoyed it and I did too.

Well to celebrate our anniversary, Brandon planned a trip for us. We are going to New Orleans on Friday Morning. It is only a 5 hour drive, so we are going to strike off about 9:00 on Friday and come back late afternoon on Sunday (unfortunately Brandon has to be out of town Monday-Wednesday next week). I have not been to New Orleans since I was little, so I am excited about the adventure. Hopefully we will take some neat pictures for me to post, and I know I still need to take pictures of the house and post them too....but I have just been a bit busy and have not gotten around to it, but I will I promise!

Speaking of the house remember I told you mom had surgery in Birmingham last week and I had dad? Well on Thursday, I had a workshop and school till 12, well we also got a new roof on Thursday so they started at oh 6:30! Also Brandon and I FINALLY bought a new sofa and over sized chair that we desperately needed! Well don't worry because it was delivered on Thursday! Let me just say Thursday was a BUSY but EXCITING day at the Bias house!

Well I think this might be a record long post!!! But I guess it has just been a while and a whole lot of things have been going on! I hope you all have a Wonderful week and weekend=)
