MASSIVE UPDATE!!!!

And we're back! So after a very long self imposed hiatus I have returned to the blog world. I have had quite a few ups and downs since we last talked so here we go.
TAKS Update-- I ended the year with only one student failing the reading test and two failing the Math test. I would have like to say, in case you don't already know, thats amazing for any teacher, let alone a first year teacher such as myself.

Work Update-- After a lot of thought and prayer I have decided to stay in Terrell, I just feel that I have not accomplished everything I want, and am supposed, to do there. We will also be team teaching next year, I will thankfully be teaching just Reading and Language Arts, which is exactly what I wanted to do. I don't know who my parnter is right now, because I have been through three already and the year hasn't even started yet; they keep getting new jobs and leaving. I have also been on the list to teach summer school twice already, and been denied. Not because of me, but because they don't need as many sections as they originally thought.

My family-- My baby sister has her first job, and she chose to keep it in the family, as she is working at the exact same grocery store that I and our sister both worked at. My oldest sister is thriving in college, and helping our cousin who just had a baby. My parents are doing great, my dad is growing a garden so he is officially and old man. As I type this I am in Stockdale, TX visiting my other family, or inlaws if you must. They are doing great and it is really doing Jacque a world of good to see them.

Random update-- I am going back to school as of August 1st. I will be attending Lamar University and earning my Masters in School Administration, and yes that means one day I could be the guy making all the decisions, scary isn't it. I am also getting new lawn mower, hopefully when we get home.

As for life in general, it is great I am very happy and enjoying my hard earned summer vacation. And as for my favorite theme song of the moment here it is...(insert drum roll here) "All I Want to Do" by Sugarland. This song describes how Jacque and I are with one another, and really just makes me think of the days when we have been able to just stay at home and be in love. Until next time, enjoy the song, and love your life.
