Such a Memorable Day...

    I remember 9/11 so vividly, and today is still breaks my heart to think of the families that have suffered such a huge loss, as well as the amazing lives that perished on that day.  As I was speaking with my third graders this week about that day, they kept asking questions like, "Did the people in the plane mean to do it?", "What happened to the people in the building?".  I remember asking those questions at the time of the event.  It was really surreal to talk to my third graders about that fateful day, that they have absolutely no recollection of, because they were born into the war that was the effect of that day.  It was awesome to see the connection "click" in their minds of the event of 9/11 creating the effect of the war they have lived through their entire life - definitely something they needed to understand in order to understand the effect the war has caused, as well as the effect the event that caused the war had on those who lived during that time.

On a happier note of a more memorable day...
   I've finally been able to gather myself together enough to get prints of our wedding, as my life hasn't allowed me to have time to do so after almost two months of being married!  Our photographer, Dana Laymon of Dana Laymon Photography, did a phenomenal job!  I am loving having my husband home, if even for a couple weeks.  And I'm so looking forward to him being home for three SOLID months!  We are talking to a breeder, and will be proud owners of an adorable little pooch in the upcoming month!  I cannot wait to have our little pup, and am looking forward to training him with the hubs before he deploys.  I will definitely be posting pictures of our happy little pup when he arrives! :)

Over and Out until my next post!
