The wedding was the 15th, and Austin moved out.
A mere 4 days later, we moved Darrell to Huntington to start his freshman year of college at Marshall.
(Go Herd!)
Darrell has certainly embraced the college lifestyle.
He's quite social and is making the most of his opportunities there.
In fact, he hardly ever comes home.
He joined a fraternity - but he assures me that it's an 'academic' one, not a 'party' one.
He's been whitewater rafting with the Christian group he goes to.
And he's working part-time at the MU Rec Center as a life guard.
I hope that when the semester ends, his grades are as exciting as his new life.
The day after that, was the first day of 2nd grade for Leila.
She wasn't wild about school last year, but so far she really likes it this year.
I'm so glad.
That makes mornings much easier around here.
In one week, we went from a household of 5 to 3.
A change like that definitely changes how and how much you cook!
I'm still working as a substitute teacher, but I'm limited in how much and how often I can work this year.
David changed jobs.
He's still with the same company, but he has a different position now.
He travels a LOT - he's probably gone 3 weeks a month.
That makes it much more difficult for me to work and still get Leila to and from school.
On the other hand, he's much happier with this new job - so that's okay.
Leila was missing the boys so much that we let her get a new kitten.
Yes - we have WAY too many animals already, and YES, we added another to the 'zoo'.
What can I say - sometimes we're just not that smart.
But he's a cute little thing.
Meet Mousey.
