Now it's time for...another Carnell update! (pretend theme song playing)
February seemed to come and go. All that's coming to mind right now is snow, snow, and more snow. Scott and I kept Valentine's Day low key with a lovely dinner out. Also, I finally used my gift certificate to the Red Door Spa. Scott has no idea what he started...speaking of which, I think I'm feeling a little cramp in my neck ;)
Well, I think the snow is gone for good. We are so ready for warmer weather. This week has been sunshiny in the low 60s- what a tease!
I have to give a shout-out to my cousins in Cali who gave birth to the most precious twins!! I just can't wait to meet them!!
At school, we have just a few weeks and then Spring Break! I'll be 3/4 of the way through the year...so hard to believe. My principal awarded me "First Year Teacher of the Year" which really means a lot since she knows how much I've been through with my class. At the end of Spring Break, Scott and I, along with some of our bestest buddies, will be heading to Huntington, WV to a friend's wedding. Road trip! I just love weddings!
Scottie is doing well and busy with work. I don't know how he can switch schedules all the time, but I admire him for handling it like a champ! He's been doing a lot of cooking lately which is SO nice. I love that he loves it! You can pretty much bet though, that whatever he makes will involve onions and peppers.
Scott is taking a week off work so he can get a tattoo. (Well, not just to get a tattoo, but he has tons of vacation time he needs to take or it will be gone in a few months and he figured while he's off, get a tattoo!) He's been wanting one for years. He laughs about me having more "tats" than him. Speaking of which, I got another one the other weekend. I had been wanting another one and thought about what I wanted for awhile and finally did it! Scott wants to get a sleeve eventually...we'll see. We are just straight up tattoo people...there's no denying it. I think that tattoos (when tastefully done) are beautiful expressions of art. I told my mom and sister that I'm a goody-goody with an edge. So hard core. lol
When Scott works all weekend, I take advantage of the time and spend it with the two most important women in my life! My mom, sister, and I have the best time together just hanging out and laughing til it hurts about one thing or another. I am so thankful for them and love them beyond words. I'm so proud of my sis for getting through her first semester of college! My lil bro is a busy worker and helping my dad with his house renos. I finally got to celebrate my grandmother's b-day this past weekend. (Mmmm, Baker's Crust- the crepes are yum-O!)
This weekend I'm thrilled to spend time with some of my girls that I don't get to see nearly enough these days! Scott has the weekend off and I'm just sooo looking forward to putting my feet up after a long week! :)
In case you don't hear from me for a couple weeks- Happy St. Patty's Day!!
Also, spend time, as the Easter season is upon us, to reflect and give thanks to God for the sacrifice of His son on the cross so that we can have life abundant and celebrate that He is RISEN!!
