Hope every one's year is off to a great start.
We just wanted to update everyone on how things have been going since our last official posting (Rangers Post doesn't count). I did not realize how long its been. Resolution for 2011 try to post more often. After many months of trying to find a teaching job, Tina was offered a position as a Computer Aide in the Frisco school district. We were super excited about her getting a job and possibly settling down and buying a house. Then in November, I was laid off due to workload. It always seems that just when things are going good for us, something happens to slow us down.
We went down to Houston during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays to spend time with family. It is always great to hang out and see family.
2011 has been great for us so far. I started a new job this past Monday and I am very excited about this new opportunity. We are finally moving into a bigger apartment at the end of this month so that we can have more space. We will be going from a one bedroom/efficiency that we have "temporarily" lived in for 2 years to a two bedroom with an actual place to put a table and chairs to eat at. Tina is very excited about getting a room just for sewing and embroidery.
As we sit here typing this post, we are currently getting our first snow of 2011. We are forecasted to get up to four inches. Last February we got spoiled when we got 12 inches of snow, but we will take snow when we can. Scooter loves the snow too.
Here are a couple of pictures of what we have been up to:
Painting class was so much fun. I think we are pretty good?
Tina's computer lab
The apple orchard was pretty cool.
Had a good time at the TX state Fair
Went out looking at Christmas lights and found the Griswold's.
Merry Christmas! Yes those are plastic yard chairs indoors and we are using Fall plastic tablecloths. Thats how we roll.
Jon and Scooter
