new beginnings

Jeff and I thought it might be fun to start our own blog spot. I'm sure I'll end up in charge of it though....that's ok.

We do have a new family member. June 11th we picked up our new black lab puppy. Her name is Star. Shayne and I wished on a star so we could come up with a name and immediately came up with Star. She also has a small white patch under her chin and we call that her star. We are having lots of fun with her. She was the quietest and calmest puppy out of all we had to choose from and now that she has adjusted to us we have learned otherwise. We started puppy training classes last night. She is the barker of the class. But she just wanted to play with all the other pups there. We think we're going to enjoy it.
Star keeps me busy, I feel like I have a toddler all over again.

Our summer is actually almost over. Shayne starts back to school August 15th. He is not happy about that. He is starting 5th grade and I am so sad about that. He's growing up too fast. I've decided not to go back and teach at preschool. Kinda got burnt out. So once school starts I'm going to see what options are out there for me so please pray for me.
