BiRtHdAyS!!

Happy birthday to the most amazing husband I've ever had....

ANDY.

He didn't want anything for his birthday so I made him home-made doughnuts for breakfast!

Passions

This week was my first week at my new job. It's different being a supervisor and I am feeling a bit overwhelmed. I've got a lot of work to do and I'm sure a lot of learning is going to happen on the way. I'm kind of glad that I got this new job when I did... there is not much out there for teaching jobs in the area and I think this may help the annual depression that sets in about this time each year and last until mid-September. It's hard not doing what you are passionate about but I think that I could definitely make a career out of banking. It's not my first choice, but it wouldn't be my last choice either.

On a brighter, not so depressing note... I received my new Nook (the BN ereader) in the mail on Thursday and I have already read my first book. The Nook is different than I thought it would be, I think I expected it to be a little more like the iPad but with a better screen for reading and less of the other gadgets. It sure isn't something I'd want to surf the internet on, but in terms of buying books and reading them it is everything I wanted it to be. Since I just got it, I'm sure there are a ton of features that I don't know about yet. So far, I'm not missing the feel/smell of a book...The Nook makes me excited to read!

Ahh! Married Life

Andy and I just got back from our honeymoon a couple of days ago and it was absolutely blissful! The details shall remain to a minimum, but I will tell you that we ate some great meals, read some great books, spent some amazing time together! We stayed at the Eagle Harbor Inn in Door County (which I would highly recommend to anyone and everyone!)

Just to rewind a bit. We want to thank everyone (again) who made our day so special! The wedding turned out beautifully. We had a great weather and a great group of people celebrating with us. The food was good, the music was great, and the dancing was a sight to be seen! Quite a few people left very early, but we were glad that they were able to come out for parts of it! :) Hopefully I will be adding some pictures in the near future (though most of them are already on facebook)!
