November

Where did the month go??
I have no idea where the month went and now it is basically over. Crazy how fast time goes. Sadly, I have no pictures of the month so far either. But we have had lots of fun.
Brian has been super busy with school and athletics. He is almost done with his first masters degree, Human Resource, we couldn't be more excited to see the end of schooling in sight. Only a few more months!!! Athletics has been over the top busy with about 3 events a week. We seriously can't wait for December to start and to only have a few events the whole month. Brian has also been busy applying for jobs and a few interviews here and there. We hope to find out more about one job soon. Brian also just had his birthday and we had a blast celebrating him turning the big 28.
I have been teaching and enjoying my few free moments. My students are a delight to teach. It is fun to compare the difference in the classes. My morning class is a great on task and following directions class but sometimes struggle with the social and being nice. My afternoon class is the opposite. They struggle listening to directions and following them plus they only have one volume, LOUD. But they are the sweetest class who wants everyone to be invited and involved in everything. They are constantly giving me and each other hugs and high fives. It is a joy teaching all of them even on rough days. Those smiles and hugs make everything worth it. Although I only have a few free moments I have enjoyed watching a few shows, seeing some fun craft fairs, hanging out with friends, and exercising.
Together in our few moments together this past month Brian and I have enjoyed visiting family. We see Brian's grandpa still every week or every other week. Then we enjoyed a few Sundays with his mom and dad. It is good to see his dad feeling good again after a little health scare. My family enjoys inviting us over whenever we have a chance and we enjoy the food and conversation every time we get a chance to be together.
We are super excited to have a few days off to spend together and with family. It is our favorite part of the holiday season. Thanksgiving always kicks off the season in the perfect way, with family, football, and food (at least those are all Brian's favorites). Hopefully I will pull out the camera more.
