Thanksgiving Week!

I have been sooo busy lately with my job, that I haven't had much time to blog. I get home and it's time to make dinner, clean it up, hang with the husband, and go to bed early (yes, early...i get up early!)

The past few weeks have been crazy grading papers, making tests, sending emails, doing interim grades, student council nominations, etc.... Teaching is not an 8-5 Monday thru Friday job. I spent most of my Sunday grading and doing lesson plans. This is why we get summers off...when most people get to enjoy their Sundays, we spend them preparing for the next week! However, it's time to be Thankful....and I truly am Thankful that I have a job that I get to go to everyday and help make a difference in the lives of children. I know some people are out of work right now, and wish they had a job. I do have a job and i'm just glad it's a job I like. It can be stressful at times...and on some days the kids can make me want to pull my hair out (today especially), but I know that I'm doing what God intended for me to do...not only am I teaching math, but through my actions, i'm teaching how to be a respectable, intelligent, responsible, caring, and faithful person!

One more day of work, then it's time for Turkey Day! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!! Enjoy stuffing your faces with food...

Then & Now!

So, I was looking through pictures on my computer and came across these bad boys! They are HILARIOUS!!! (Don't tell my husband, he might kill me if he saw I put these pics on here...hahaha!)

THEN......(Senior Trip 2002...we'd been dating for 5-6 months)




Anorexic Hunter...j/k. He grew so fast, he couldn't eat enough to keep up!!!


NOW.....(Key West, Florida 2010...been married for 3 1/2 years)



Some changes are for the better! Most people don't want to gain weight after high school (me)...but people like my husband, obviously need to! haha

Happy Weekend,
Carrie

Call me AUNT CARRIE!

I'm going to be an Aunt again!!!!!!!!!!!!! I absolutely LOVE being an Aunt. I think it's so fun. I only have one niece, Tristan, who is currently 5 years old. She is the funniest, cutest, smartest thing on the block. I love it when she calls me and talks to me on the phone (she lives in Orlando, so I don't see her very often). She cracks me up. Hunter just loves her, too! Now I get to have another niece or nephew...my baby sister, Katie, is PREGNANT!!! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've had to keep it a secret for the past two months, which was really hard, but now we can finally share the news. I am going to say right now that I think she'll have a BOY! We'll see if I'm right in 6 months....Baby Kintz is due May 14th! I'm excited!!!

Greatest Aunt on the Planet (in my opinion, which is the only one that matters),
