Our Trip to Orlando

Jake and I were able to spend a week in Florida back in June, and we had a wonderful time. He was able to fly in from Trinidad and meet me in Orlando. I was going there for the model school conference, so both of us didn't have to pay for our plane tickets (how awesome is that). At first we planned on staying in the hotel that I was suppose to stay in with the school, but decided to get our own place because we were going to have to share that room with 2 of my colleagues. We ended up renting a really nice condo in Kissimmee, and the best part about it...we only paid $99 a night! It had 3 bedrooms, a full kitchen, livingroom, dining room, 2 1/2 baths, and a washer/dryer. It was a steal! Jake surprised me with a convertable rental car, and we cruised the streets of Orlando in style. We spent our days fluttering all around town. We went to downtown Disney, watched movies in real movie theatre, ate out every night, and had the time of our lives. I loved our trip and I love my husband even more...I am so greatful that he has a job that enables him to do things like that with me. We made so many memories that will never be forgotten.

I'M OLD (ok, I'm 23)!!!!

I just celebrated my 23rd birthday on Sunday, and Jake made it so special. Earlier last week, he brought me shopping and gave me a $200 spending limit. I was able to get a lot of new clothes for the start of school. We had so much fun! Jake and I ate pizza, watched movies, and snuggled all day long. HE even made me a cake, and it was so good! I love hime to pieces and couldn't imagine spending my life and the eternities with anyone else!

Our Electronic Age!!!!

Well, we finally have a computer again. Our laptop broke while Jake and I were in Orlando, and we had to send it back to Toshiba to have a new hard drive installed. What's crazy about the whole thing is our laptop isn't even 6 months old. Anyhow, we are just happy that we have it back.

School starts on August 4th, the first day for students is August 8th. I am so excited about this year. They hired a new teacher for the other English I class who is going to a wonderful resource. She and I are the same age, but she actually went to school to be an English teacher, where as I went to school for Elementary Education. She brings new ideas, and I have 2 years of teaching experience under my belt.

Anyhow, I'll post again soon!
