Thanksgiving...

Anthony and I had Thanksgiving in Wauchula with my family on Thursday. It was really tasty, and very nice to see my family. This year some of our extended family dined with us. It gave me an opportunity to introduce Anthony to some family that he probably wouldn't have met any time soon.

We avoided Black Friday this year and I really am not that sad that we did. No one seemed to have great sales. We did go to the outlet mall around midnight to check out a couple early sales, but were disappointed.

If you are a fan of Christmas movies you should check out "Four Christmases." It was really funny and had a nice storyline. I hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday!

There has been a very exciting change in our life this week. I have been hired at Hardee Junior High as the new chorus and music appreciation teacher. I am very excited about the new position!!! It was also very nostalgic to be back in middle school choir after all the time I spent there as a middle schooler. Of course the room is very different since it is now located at the new junior high, but it still took me back to listen to them sing the cheesy songs that they will perform in two weeks.

In other news, I wanted to share this super cute picture of Anthony and his mom.



It's made me excited about Christmas!!

Happy Birthday To Me!

I recently had my 25th birthday and Anthony made me a beautiful birthday cake complete with magic candles and sprinkles!! I wanted to share the picture because I thought it was very thoughtful and special that he made a cake for me instead of buying one that was already decorated. He has gone out of his way every holiday to make it extra special and my birthday was no exception. I truly do have an amazing guy!

Here we are at the Ale House for my birthday dinner...
