That is about all we have been up to! I am sure you all heard about the huge flood in A-town! Well, we had to sandbag the cabin and put our furniture up on cynder blocks...let me tell you this is an experience that I have never had before....and hope I don't have to have it again! I told Brent this was an awful lot of work if it didn't flood, and his reply was that it was alot easier than the cleanup would be if it did! I guess he was right....even though we didn't flood! Here are some pics for your entertainment!
And here is after
If you look close, there was a boat dock....and now there's not!
Brent has been trying to get as much fishing in as possible before school starts! The girls love to hang out with him while he fishes! This is before the flooding.....we still don't have a dock! And the Fevers........both of my babies are sick (as in babies, most of you know I mean dogs) I was embarrassed to even call the vet when the second one got sick! Their illnesses aren't related! Seriously....how could they have timed it better?
And here are pics of my classroom! Brent was so wonderful and helped me a ton! He tends not to have anything to do on teacher workdays. My principal accidently added him to our schoolwide email list....he forwarded me her email and said "this is when you know you spend way too much time at your wife's school!" I am so thankful for a helpful husband! This was my first year not to change rooms! It was very nice not working myself to death!
Hope all you fellow teachers have a great first day back!!!!!
