15 Years!!

Fifteen years ago, I married my best friend. Twenty years ago, Matt and I met and started dating. We've been together for more than half our lives. I can't imagine live without him. I think things work for us so well because we are such great friends. We have similar tastes, likes, and dislikes. Don't get me wrong, the past 15 years haven't been all candy and roses, but it's that journey that has made us into who we are. Not only do we have a great life together, but we also have two wonderful kids that have made the journey all the more worthwhile!

Today former students, Whitney Selby and Jon Ziebell were married. When Whitney was in my class during high school, she was my teacher's aid. I was able to get to know her really well. She liked Chemistry, we soon discovered we had our similar interests. I was sad to see her graduate high school, but was so proud of her when she went to Rose Hulman and majored in Chemical Engineering. She started dating Jon (another former student) recently after both started college. Four years later, the two joined their lives together. I don't know Jon very well...but I do remember making the comment to Whitney in HS about how Jon would make a great husband. He appeared to be devout in his beliefs and dedicated to the things he loved. I am so glad to see they found each other early in life and got married. I hope they have a wonderful life together.

Word Parade

Owen's school did a word parade. He had such a time picking out a word. Owen disliked all my suggestions and finally came up with CAMOUFLAGE! Matt created the costume out of a camo shirt and a box. I made his little sign to carry with words cut out from my Cricut. Owen even wore his camo tennis shoes with his school uniform -cute! The word parade was an extension of the first grader's reading of Miss Alanieus Vocabulary disaster by Debra Fraiser. The entire school took part in the parade.
