Well, the weekend wasn't ALL work. Saturday afternoon we went to the river. Sniff, sniff- our time with the ol' dirty is drawing to a close.... but not yet! This is Jeremy on the jet ski and Stuart on the knee board. 
... and another sweet action shot.
Sunday, we went to the last Traveler's game at Ray Winder field. There were something like 8,000 people there, and we even had to sit in the grass. It was a gorgeous day, and we got a little crispy. 
Yeah, we're pretty cute. 
A huuuuuuuge happy anniversary goes out to mis padres!! This is the big 3-1, folks! Thanks, guys, for everything you have done for me and for showing me what real love is like. You've taught me a lot, and you're the greatest. Happy anniversary!
Last night, Jeremy and I grilled out on his deck. On my way home, I drove with the windows down, and it was actually chilly. You know what that means, people. We've almost made it...
Sorry for the delay on the weekend bloggiture. Here we go...! Saturday we went to the River Market for some absolutely fantabulous Greek food from a scary Greek man. He sure does know how to make that falafel though. Mmmmm... After that, we went to the Picasso exhibit at the Arts Center. It was great. SO great, in fact, that I made a worksheet right there on the spot for the kiddoes to fill out and get some extra credit for the espanol. Ahhh yes.
On our way out the door, still fully reveling in all of Picasso's glory, we came across this happy little duck family. Followin' their mama. Everybody say, "awwww!" You know you did in your head already. I know it.
A fun side note, when I googled the Arkansas Arts Center, this is the second picture I found. It's from this website which is kind of hilarious. Look at the other pictures from inside the museum. With commentary. Apparently by a sheep-like thing.
To finish up an almost perfect Saturday, we blew up an above-ground inflatable pool, put it in the backyard, and played Marco Polo. All of us. It was the time of my life. Wish I had pictures of the real thing, but you'll have to settle for.... uhhhh... this fine group of people. In a field.
Since there are only two days till Kat and Karl's anni... I decided to post a picture of them tyin' the ol' proverbial knot. Love to you both! Have a fabulous time in the Lou (am I allowed to say that, not being a St. Louis person?... is it copyrighted?... I like the sound of it)!
Today has been full of lots of computer fixin. My mind is still slightly boggled by the fact that I'm the school's "go-to" person for computer issues. I'm the tech support... it's fascinating.
An interesting fact: it turns out that if you have your car appraised after May 31, you get a 10% penalty on top of your taxes. Being the proud owner of a "new" 2004 Civic, I was penalized an awesome $230. Fantastic! Never got a notice that I needed to appraise or NOTHIN'! Thanks, AR.
Today is going to be rather interesting in the world of me... I am going to sub for the 1st grade teacher at 1 till the end of the day. That's 2 hours in a contained classroom with 6 year olds. Pray for me. Hopefully they'll have plenty to do and they won't be able to smell my fear. Oh dear...
It's Monday once again, and this is my first full week with the kiddoes. Should be very exciting. My weekend (as were several people's in the blogosphere) was extremely laid back but lovely. No going out for me... this school thing's about to wear me out! But it was very nice. Well, holy cow: "Snakes on a Plane" made $15.25 million this weekend. That's absolutely amazing. Now I know I must go see it. I hear it's very audience-interactive with people shouting at the screen and with fun to be had by all. I've been forseeing this for months now. I just can't believe it's true.
Jeremy sent me this comic from this website which made me laugh a lot. Thanks, yo.
Back to school! Back to school, to prove to Dad that I'm not a fool! I got my lunch packed up, my boots tied tight, I hope I don't get in a fight! Ohhhh, back to school! Back to school! Back to school! Well, here goes nothing!
You have been so good to me... I shall miss you dearly. Fear not, there are still plenty of good weekends to come, but it won't be the same. I'll never forget you. Farewell, sweet summer. Farewell.
Sincere apologies for my lack of updates lately. I know everyone just keeps waiting by the computer to hear from me... kidding. But I've been so stinkin' busy. School starts Wednesday , and I'm definitely not ready yet. Today there was no air conditioning, and my classroom was literally 93 degrees. And there was no computer access. So no bloggity blog from work today. I will do my best to update more now that I'll be on a more steady schedule. Don't hate me, Brooke! :)
This is my favorite picture from Friday night... Kat hasn't seen it yet. I was taking a picture of Melissa and Greg and she was in the corner. Kat is BY FAR one of my favorite people. Ever.
Saturday was Miss Judith's bachelorette party which was ever-so-fabulous. Did I mention that I took 78 pictures?? 78. Photos. Of us. So I have many, and they're fun. So bear with me and look at all the girlies! We started off at Leslie's house, then to Cornerstone, then to Ernie Bigg's. Here are more pictures...
Went to the movies with a whole bunch of girlies on Wednesday. Saw "John Tucker Must Die." YOU must go see. Luuuuuuuurved it. On our way out, we saw this gem of bloggiture. Couldn't resist. Go team Annie! Thumbs up.
Ahhh yes, Eric Estrada. Also featured: Ricky Martin, Speedy Gonzalez, Ricky Ricardo, Antonio Banderas, Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, Penelope Cruz, Selena, J-Lo, Marc Anthony... and more! I love it. Updates soon on the GT room once I get it freaking done. Have a good weekend!
