Practically Perfect (not me, silly)

I finally feel like I can catch my breath. The beginning of the school year has felt like a complete out of body experience. The first 2 weeks I would come home bushed and fall asleep before 8. I know what you are thinking. Of course you are tired Audrey, you have been on summer break and you aren't used to waking up early and going all day with 27 9/10 year olds. I would agree with that, however I felt like I wasn't even myself. Anyway, the school year start has been successful and I feel like my kids are starting to read their anal teacher's mind and know what they SHOULD and SHOULD NOT DO. In case you are wondering, I am holding 7 (yes, 7) personal pencil sharpeners hostage....This class is VERY different from last year (duh) and I have a feeling we will learn a lot from each other. Aug.8- Jenny and Travis had some friends over for an evening of Bucca De Beppo, Olympics on the Wii, and many many laughs. I know I laugh at almost everything, but Jenny's husband Travis is a complete hoot. I love funny people, but funny husbands are my favorite. No, not like in a sick way, but a funny way...... never mind.
Aren't Jenny and Amber the cutest pregnant girls in America? I think so too. Travis made sure they had enough pillows to "properly prop their feet up." See, isn't that funny??

Aug. 14- Thanks for planning such a fun evening out LAURA.. here are some of Gilbert High's finest. Except Heather, she is married to one of Gilbert High's finest, Langdon- that makes her an honorary member. It was fun to see some girls I don't see on a regular basis and hear funny kid/family stories.

Shanna Lessley, Laura Haught, Regan Wright, Heather Bridges, me, Michelle Fries, and Lisa Gressley

Aug.21- HERE HE IS. Is he not practically perfect?? Jenny and Travis are the proud parents of a beautiful baby boy, Trevin Christopher. He was born August 20th, healthy and happy...call me to babysit ANYTIME..

...
And look who else I got to see. My cute cousin Kip. She is a labor and delivery nurse at the hospital Jenny was at. It was fun to see you Kip and you are practically perfect yourself. Don't deny, Kipsterpipsterdanielwebster. Love you!

ps- this color is the color of purse I am currently carrying. Isn't it so cute and not me? My mom told me to buy it and I love it. I am not one for going out on a limb with clothes or any type of fashion for that matter. But, this is a purchase I am 100% satisfied.

i just realized I wrote "right" instead of "write." I promise I don't need to repeat first grade.

Love the color of your purse...so fun! Oh, and I wish I could come see you in action in your classroom, you sound hilarious! Why don't you move out east so my kids can have you as a teacher. You have plenty of time to make it out here, since it will be a few years!
