Team of the Decade

Last Saturday at the Katy HS game, Adam was introduced along with the rest of the State Champs from 2000. This was the ten year reunion. It was so fun! Since Missy and I both have hubbies from that state team, we enjoyed going down on the sidelines to take pictures of our men in red.

And this coming weekend is the Katy/Taylor game. I will definitely be sporting my blue! Go 'Stangs!!

And one door closes...

Friday, October 15th was my last day as an Ageny Account Executive with The Media Audit. After about 2 and a half years with this company I am moving on to pursue my teaching aspirations as I mentioned below. After my notice and resignation, the two weeks flew by. On my last day they were all so sweet and threw me a little party and each person even signed a large stuffed apple for me to have as a keepsake. How cute! They are all very excited about my new goal. It meant so much!

With the President, Bob Jordan and his wife Gaynor.

With Kristin! She was initially just a co-worker and now a life long friend. We became so close and I will miss her a ton. To fix that we are meeting for lunch tomorrow and I can't wait!

The Good Life

Our past month in pictures.

We said goodbye to Summer the only way we know how, on a boat with good friends, amazing weather, and cold beer.

The Newly Engaged!

In other news, I want to give a shout out my wonderful friend Megan and her fiance Stephen. They were engaged last month and this past weekend we celebrated the two with a beautiful engagement party at the Carnes' home. Adam and I have a blast with these two and couldn't be happier. Congrats you two! I love watching my friends get married and take part in all the fun. Who will be next? I have to admit, this is such a fun time for our group of friends. And I have a feeling we just might have a few more engagements on the horizon! We shall see...

Decisions and Change

I look back and realize I have not been a very good blogger this past month. Alot has been going on! First, our week nights seem to be packed to the brim between puppy obedience class for our new addition, June, and teaching 4th grade CCE. Both I should mention are going great! June is growing and learning so much and Adam and I are truly enjoying sharing our faith with bright-eyed 4th graders. They are amazing!

In addition to this craziness, Adam and I have been in much prayer and discussion about my current job situation. After much, MUCH thought, I have decided to pursue a career in teaching. Currently, I am in agency sales for a media research company called The Media Audit. With much support from my dear husband and our families and friends, I resigned from my current position this past Friday (October 1st). Can you say scary? And many people think I am nuts!

But, yes, I am taking the leap and couldn't be more thrilled! My last day here at The Media Audit is October 15th. October 16th I will begin my teaching certification classes and begin subbing and "shadowing" as much as I can. This is vital in order to gain classroom experience and contacts.

I am so excited to finally be pursuing this dream! I began college as an education major, but stupidly dropped it at KU only because it was a 5 year program. I always said I would just "get certified" after college. Boy am I regretting that. Dumb! I should have stuck to my gut. And I should have known all along that this was my path! I even asked for and received an overhead projector for Christmas '93. I played school on that thing for hours on end until it was eventually donated to the Ole Miss Pi Phis later in college;)

So here I am, 3.5 years out of college, still lingering onto this dream. I am so thankful and blessed with the most amazing and supportive husband as Adam. He is a dream and I could have never even imagined a more loving, supportive man who just wants to see me happy with my job.

I will be getting certified to teach grades 4-8 and look forward to updating you all on my progress! Please keep me in your prayers.
