Our Anniversary

I'm a little late on this, but its been a busy week.
Last Sunday was our first anniversary. We went out to dinner the Friday before to a little Italian restaurant on Wells St. near our apartment. Then we spent our anniversary weekend on the road to Southern Indiana (near Cincinnati) to go to my friend from college, Sarah's wedding.
We had a great time at the wedding and it definitely brought back a lot of wedding memories for us.
Here are some pictures of our day a year ago...



I tried uploading more, but blogger was giving me a hard time!

Now, I'm back at school and have survived my first week of classes. I have 31 students (will most likely get one more in the next few weeks) and I am teaching second grade again now for the third year. Its hard to believe this is the start of my fourth year of teaching! I remember being soooo nervous for my first year, and I still get "The First Day Jitters" some, but I definitely feel more comfortable. Because we have switched to the year round schedule, I will get a week off in October, 3 weeks at Christmas, and 2 weeks for Spring Break. It will be nice when those dates come around.

Some exciting news was shared with us last weekend as well, my brother Ryan proposed to his girlfriend of 3 years Shannon! We are sooo excited! Alex and I got the call from them on Sunday and it was Shannon's two kids, Hunter and Kirsten and they were calling me Aunt Jackie... they've never done this before so I was a little confused. Then Shannon finally got on the phone and told us the news! No plans are set in stone yet, but we are very excited for this event and to add a few more to the Slucter name!

That's all for now. I'm sitting around hoping that the sun comes out so I can go up and enjoy the pool while Alex is out golfing with Fife. Why does it have to rain on my weekends??!! Boo!
Have a great week!

Sorry El, I think we were on the opposite side of the state. You are more on the Western side right?
