Change Is Happening

around here.  I gave my two weeks at Trekkers yesterday.  That is my big news that I couldn't share.  What, you don't think that's big news?  Well, its big to me, okay?  I gave my two weeks yesterday and I will now be working at Trekkers only as a sub and not as a full-time teacher.  Because I am going on my unexpected trips this summer to NC, I am converting to a sub.  I am so excited about this.  Its unreal.  I have been SO busy lately that I will really not know what to do with myself when I don't have a job or school to go to.  Can't wait for that.  Don't get me wrong, I love Trekkers and it is such a fun job, but I just need a break and some quiet time without being constantly busy.  Moving on...

This weekend for Memorial Day, we (the Weavers + me) had the annual Crawfish Boil.  Can you say yum?  It was such a fun time.  I always have a blast when I'm with the Weavers, so when you add cute babies, yummy crawfish, and great weather to that, you get an awesome day.
 Poor little guys had no idea what was coming.

YUM.

 Lowering them into the pot and to their death.

I stole this picture from KateandKuby, because its the only picture with me actually in it.  Haha. oops.

Oh My It Has Been A While

since I have written a post.  I have been so busy finishing up the Spring semester of school and with work AND with Summer school.  Goodness, this past month has gone by SO fast.  It's unreal.  What is new?  Well, I'm glad you asked...  There are some pretty big changes coming up in this girl's life.  I can't tell you much about them yet, but just you wait.  This summer is going to be a good one.  I am so glad for a long weekend with no school or work Monday.  Work and school have been crazy busy this month, with Summer school and Summer Camp starting at work.  The classes I am taking for Summer school are the May intercession classes and they are only 3 weeks long, so they are super intense (one day of class is like a week of normal semester classes).  I'm rambling, so let's move on.

So as it turns out, I am taking more trips than expected this summer.  Which is super exciting!  Mom and I are going to Missouri in June for my cousin-in-law, Sara's, baby shower.  Then, we are driving with my aunt and uncle to their house in North Carolina to stay and help them get ready for their Lamp Lighters' event this August.  Then, in July, I am going to Destin for 2 weeks.  Yes, I repeat, TWO WEEKS.  Yay!  It will be a well-deserved vacation for this busy girl.  For the first week, I will be with Ricky's family on their vacation.  Then, for the second week, Ricky, his brother, Kenny, and I will be staying with my family for our vacation.  I cannot wait.  In August, mom and I are going back to NC to help staff the Lamp Lighters' event, which I am so ready for.  What an awesome experience.

To get ready for Summer and all of these beach days, I am doing Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred.  Let me tell you, I hate that woman.  By that I mean that she is a great personal trainer and will get results fast.  But to get results, you have to work and be incredibly sore.  I literally had trouble walking the second day.  Not cute.  But I can't wait to see the results.  I am trying to get in shape before the Summer really starts and before I start training for the St. Jude Marathon Relay, which is in December.

I am so excited for this summer and to see how the Lord works and moves throughout my summer.  I am thrilled and humbled to be a child of the one true God.  I am so thankful for my blessings and I can't wait to spend this summer praising and following the Lord.  YAY SUMMER!
