Peach Pie

Just a short note about one of our new favorite things this fall: eating Peach Pie! We go crazy over it and can't seem to get enough of it! If we could, I think we would eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It is like a party in your mouth. Obviously, we love so many other things about fall; i.e. the leaves changing, the cool crisp morning air, and pumpkins everywhere you look; but peach pie is definitely at the top of the list. Happy Fall!!!

9/11

This post is a day late but yesterday it hit me what 9/11 really means. I was in high school when it happened and it didn't really affect me. I was young and didn't realize what it all really meant. Yes, it was a sad day when it happened, but I didn't realize the effect it would have on our nation and every single person here in America. As I watched the news specials yesterday, with the videos of people in NY, I could not stop crying. I saw this video below and it made me realize how fragile life is and how fragile freedom is.  We have been at war for 10 years now and who knows how much longer it will go.  Lives have been lost and families are missing their fathers or mothers.

School is definitely back in session, my work load has increased a lot! I don't mind though, I really love my job and thought I would share with you some of what I do. Other than making sure the dean is on track, I get to plan events for the college. We had a BBQ for all the new faculty we hired this year. This is one of my favorite events because they have so much energy and are so excited to be here!  Another thing with school starting is I rarely get to see Brady, he is so busy with school and work.  At least we have Saturday's together!
