I'm a Teacher!

FINALLY!!! After being interviewed for 5 different jobs and getting denied for 3 of them, I got hired for the PERFECT job! I will be teaching at a small school district about 20 minutes away, teaching high school art AND drama. They gave me drama classes after finding out that I will be certified for both! I have always wanted to teach both of them! Also, the whole district is on one campus and they have preschool so I get to bring Mckenzie with me and if I stay at this district, I can go to school with her and bring her home every day through 12th grade! (I hope she will realize she can't get away with anything with mom on campus!) Also, Paul has an interview on Monday with a computer company, so if he gets this our luck has seriously changed! We also are finalizing our apartment contract, a pretty 3 bedroom overlooking the pool area in a gated complex by a stream and park with deer. It has crown molding, built in book shelves, our own washer and dryer in a laundry room, balcony; it's so cute! Thanks to everyone who has been praying for us and sending us good thoughts, I think it finally worked and we are so excited!


Some general Mckenzie cuteness

Last week Paul and his parents went down south for his grandma's burial, so Mckenzie and I stayed here with Paul's sister and we painted their guest bathroom and I painted hibiscus flowers on the cabinets. I think they turned out pretty nice. I also just painted the set for "Damn Yankees" at the community theatre, those pictures to come soon.

Thanks everyone! Rach, we are in the Bryan/College Station area in Texas and I will be teaching at Mumford ISD which is about a 20 minute drive from here. So when you guys move to Texas you have to come hang out some time! We can go do Sea World :)
