Happy Birthday Spencer!!!

Spencer's birthday is tomorrow, July 29th. He will be 28 years old. It is so hard for me to believe I was there to celebrate his 16th birthday with him. This will be the first birthday in 12 years Buddy has not been here to celebrate with him. Spencer got Buddy on his 16th birthday. Which I would say was the best birthday present ever!!!! If we could we would go out and adopt another chocolate male right now, but the timing just isn't right. When it is we will be getting another dog. I just wanted to wish Spencer a Happy Birthday and also remember Buddy! There isn't a day that goes by that we don't miss him!

Recent Craft Project

For some reason I decided to get crafty or artsy as some may say. I wanted a sign that I could put outside my classroom door. When we were at the beach I noticed some cool signs with a lot of color. I decided I could just create my own. So......this is what I came up with:

I have black ribbon to put on it so it can be hung. I'll post a picture once I put it outside my classroom door.

Grayton Beach

Spencer and I just returned from a week stay in Grayton Beach. Our friends, Lauren and Russell, joined us in the middle of the week. We had a blast! It rained a couple of days, but as you know, beach weather comes and goes. We were able to get to the beach every day. We enjoyed just sitting on the beach under the umbrella and in the sunshine watching people.
