Our 6 Months!

Tonight Lance and I celebrated our 6 month anniversary. It was actually on the 9th but we celebrated tonight. My wonderful husband took me to Brennan's and we had a LOT of delicious food! We were planning on going out after but we were both sooooo full we just came home and watched a movie!

I cannot believe we have been married for 6 months already. I really can't believe that it was almost 4 years ago when we had our first date! I cannot imagine my life without Lance and can't believe how lucky I am to have such a kind, amazing person in my life.

In honor of our 6 month anniversary I thought I would recap on what has happened in the short 6 months since we have been married. I think we have changed jobs, cities and life goals in the past 6 months more than most people do in 6 years. Here is a quick overview.

June:

* Lance and I moved to Houston from Abilene and we were both unemployed! Which was SUPER fun! We slept in every day and did whatever we wanted all day long. Not to mention Lance was still getting paid from his job that ended in May!

July-August:

* Lance becomes a Banker! We were both really excited and thought that Lance was going to love his new job in the business world! I start grad school and UH with the intention to graduate in 2009 with my masters in Speech Pathology.

September:

Lance gets certified to teach special education and switches from the wonderful world of banking to the wonderful world of teaching.

I decide to transfer to ACU in the Fall and turn in my Cougar Card and never turn back!

October:

KAYLA IS SEARCHING FOR A JOB!!

November:

I become a teacher at Westbury Christian School and begin the wonderful job of spending every day from 7:30-3:45 with 4 and 5 year olds!!

December:

Lance & I are both teachers.....who would have thought it!!??

So as you can see we have had quite an eventful 6 months! We are both very happy & settled into our new jobs! We are planning to move to Abilene in the summer for graduate school at ACU. Please be praying that Lance can find a job while I am in school. It isn't always easy to find a job in Abilene! Also pray that I will get into school! I am not too worried about it but I don't officially find out until around March. I am so blessed to have a husband that will pack up and move 400 miles so that I can go to school! I was planning on staying at UH but when we decided to both work this year and do graduate school next year Lance was more than supportive of me going to the school I really wanted to go to! He is SOOO great and would have a much easier life if he didn't have to keep up with me! I also need to give a little shout out to my parents as well who are funding me switching to a much more expensive school! Thanks Mom & Dad!! :) I have the most amazing parents in the world who give so much and never ask for anything in return! I hope I can be half as wonderful to my kids as my parents have been to me!

Alright thats all for now! I was going to take some pictures of our fun night but of course forgot my camera! Oh well! :)
