September/October

I have been so busy lately I haven't had a chance to blog about ANYTHING!

I really don't even know where to start...

Rock Springs High School:

I love my new job and working so close to home!

I have great students and it really has been fun.

I forgot how much work it is making lesson plans 

and trying to appeal to all sorts of learning types.

I have had a couple reality checks... 

i thought high schoolers would be more responsible than middle schoolers 

but it turns out they need just as much reminding if not more.

I work with great GREAT teachers! 

i'd be so lost with out their help and support.

I survived Parent Teacher Conferences in September

OH and i am officially the new girls soccer coach!

Hunting Season:

derek went hunting in september and got an antelope

(not real hard when there are more antelope than people in wyoming)

we went out twice for deer... 

i'm sure you can tell by the pictures below which weekend i preferred

 

 

we didn't get anything either time, the 2nd time i did get a shot off though

but we didn't come home empty handed...

we got a sweet travel trailer!

 
 
 

Projects:

derek has been hard at work finishing our last couple projects

it feels so good to finally be done with our house and just get to enjoy it! :)

we built another deck (shoot i forgot to take a picture, and i dont want to go back downstairs)

redid the garage shelves

finished the bathroom downstairs

 
 

and had another successful gardening year

we have had so much zuchinni, tomatos, green peppers

along with potatoes, onions, and spaghetti squash

 

Halloween:

i love to get decorate for the holidays!

 
 
 
 
i always buy all the decorations after the season so that they are cheaper

and then i have decorations for the following year...
so thanks to last Nov 1 we look pretty festive :)
