I truly believed after Arkansas' big win over LSU on Friday that Arkansas would turn around and put their faith back in Houston Nutt and he would stay. Today he gave his resignation and my heart is broken. I don't think that 8-4 season is anything to complain about. So it may not be the best season but Arkansas has seen worse. You can say whatever you want to about Houston Nutt, but this is my blog so I will only say good things. He was what a true Razorback fan is!! He played for Arkansas and was a true Arkansan through and through. But at least he left us after an awesome win over LSU!! So I hope all you fans that wanted Houston gone so badly are happy!! Who knows what is in store for us now. I honestly hope we get a shitty coach so people will realize how good we had it!! But then again I do love my razorbacks so I really don't want a bad season. I guess we will just have to wait and see who Jeff Long can recruit for us. Whoever the new coach is they will have my support but forewarning: as soon as you loose a few games or piss the fans off they will give you hell!!

Happy Early Thanksgiving

Well it has definitely been awhile since I have posted anything. It has been a rough past two weeks!! But with Thanksgiving just around the corner I have really stopped to think about what we are thankful for. It has been a year of ups and downs but I will save that all for another post!! Right now we are just so thankful to be living closer to our family. It is so hard to believe that Thursday is Thanksgiving already!! We took the kids to get their pictures made yesterday! I cannot wait to see them. Although after a few minutes of smiling for the camera they both were done with the whole picture thing!! Oh well, I think the photographer got some really cute pics!! I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!!!

52 Days Til............

Christmas!! I can't believe it! Normally I am not in the Christmas spirit just a few days after Halloween, but this year is a different story. We just got back from Walmart and they have already started decorating for Christmas and playing Christmas music. We have to buy a new tree this year. Our old tree is way too big for our new house. We had so much fun looking at trees and all of the decor. I wish I could decorate right now. Normally we decorate the Friday after Thanksgiving but we will be in Arkansas this year so I guess we will put it up after we get back. While we were at Walmart, David bought a Santa suit. He has been wanting to dress up as Santa forever!! So when we saw the suit we had to get it!!! He is already working on disguising his voice!! I can't wait!! We have lots of things planned this year so it will be a fun season!!!

Novemeber already????????????

We had the best time last night. Tyler and David went trick or treating then they came back and Tyler passed out candy to the kids. Landon loved watching all of the kids in their costumes. Three of my students at the elementary school came trick or treating at our house. One of them recognized me before I even saw him. The other two looked at me like I was crazy when I told them hi!! Hey, it was dark and my hair was all pulled back and no makeup!! FUN TIMES!!!

Now it is time to count down to Thanksgiving. I love this time of the year because every month you have something to count down too. We finally get to go home this year for Thanksgiving. We haven't been home for a holiday in 7 years. We are really excited!! So I am sure we will gain 10lbs after having Thanksgiving dinner twice!! But it will be well worth it.

School for the semester is winding down. But with it winding down also means that it is busy as heck. I am ready for this semester to be over with, but I will be sad to end my field experience at the elementary school. I really love my class!!! And my teacher is awesome. I have learned so much and cannot wait to get more into my ed classes next semester!!
