Hello!
Ok, so it looks like once a month now is pushing it...if the trend continues, I'll be lucky to get one in ever! Quick highlight of some of our favorite memories from the past few months...
We've had a busy, but fun-filled few months. The last time I updated, I had just started school and we were getting in the groove of being married. That has definitely been the best part of the past few months...married life is so fun! I still LOVE the fact that I get to go home to Rob every evening after work. I love that he is just "on tap" whenever I want to hang out with him...love it! Because our weeks are filled, weekends are worth gold at the Williams' household. We're having such a blast. :)
Below is a pic of our dinner date the first night we had in our new apartment together. Such fun memories!
School has been a little bit of a difficult transition for me. I have always struggled with getting comfortable somewhere and then resisting change in any area of my life. My job is a great example of that. My school in Katy is wonderful and I have some really great students, I just miss a ton of things about my school in Austin, especially some of the people that I worked with. I know I will get to that level of comfort in my new school, it is just taking a lot longer than I had imagined it would. Below is a picture of some of my team. I'm blessed with my 4th grade peeps :)
This was Courtney's last day at school before she was induced! (The lighting was a little weird.)
These are a few of my sweet students. Rob and I have gone to a few of their games on Saturdays to watch them play. Aren't they cute?!?
In September, we also got to attend an Aggie game, which was a blast. Just being back there at Kyle field brought back so many wonderful memories. A&M played Louisiana Tech, and our friends David and Kristin invited us to go with them. It was a fun game, and we had a blast. Thanks Howells!
Another of our favorite weekends in the past few months has been when Rob and Cindy dunked their Aggie rings. Cindy had just gotten hers and Rob had never dunked his. So we all got together in Aggieland for some good 'ole tradition and good times. Here is a pic that was taken right before they started their endeavor. They did so well!
That same weekend, we woke up the next morning and headed to Dallas for a wedding (yes, we're still getting our usual fix in and loving it!). Ted and Kimberly Jakus had a beautiful wedding and we were glad to get to be there. Congrats you two!
With the anniversary of Dad's passing next week, I have been a little bit weepy lately. It is tough to remember back to where we were last year at this time and the emotions that we were feeling. This morning, Rob and I got the chance to run in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure 5K that raises funds for breast cancer research. I thought it might be difficult to see a lot of people that are enduring what we went through last year, but it was just the opposite this morning. It was wonderful to be around people that were survivors and living their lives to the fullest. I loved all of the bright smiles and laughter that were coming from a group of 33,000 people that gathered for a potentially tough and sensitive occasion. I got to meet up with a few of my Stanley co-workers, which was fun. Below are a few pics from this morning.
More to come! :)
Love,
