A Splash of Life: Life Lately...August Wrap Up

Whew!!

Man, August has FLOWN by! I feel like we just started and we're already at the end of it. That's what happens once school starts, I guess.

So let me do a quick recap of our August, instead of our week, I guess. lol

Let's see....

After our birthday trip to the Keys, we came home and celebrated me and my grandma's birthday together at Squid Lips.

I love that we still have 4 generations of family - how awesome is that?!

Then it was back to school for teachers - even though, as a new pineapple teacher, I was already back for 2 weeks, but this was the week that ALL teachers reported back. It was a great way to return back to work.

Then, it was meet the teacher. Honestly, starting a new school that isn't completely finished is kind of chaotic, but somehow, my anxiety level is at an all time low, and I'm not even on meds! Our school wasn't ready for us to be on campus yet, so we had to switch to a different school AND it was on the weekend instead of at night. BUT, it all worked out just fine.

I had my first meet the teacher as a pineapple teacher and the Ron brought the girls in to meet their teachers. Autumn had to miss out on hers, though, since she had volleyball tryouts during that time. But it's okay - she survived. :)

THEN.... it was the first day of school. Again, new school isn't finished and the 2nd grade building isn't finished, so we're in the "New" building, temporarily... and we didn't have all of our technology and we don't have keys... lol. It's been an adventurous beginning, but it has not been so bad!

We had our first day and everyone left still happy and wanting to go back...despite having to wear uniforms - ha! That was a big gripe with the girls, but low and behold, they actually like their uniforms now....just like Momma said they would.

In other big news... Caroline, who has been BEGGING for a cat for years, has finally got her wish. Our sheriff's animal shelter was waving the fees for adoptions in August, so not only did we get 1, but we got TWO kitties.

She is in KITTY HEAVEN right now. And all the girls love the cats.

Meanwhile, I've still been able to get up at 4:30 in the morning to get in my workouts.

I actually just finished my latest calendar!

I've finished this calendar despite going back to work - still getting up at 430, because there's no way I'd be able to do it after work (these days, anyway). 

I really liked this mash up of programs, it had weights, cardio, barre...I did sub out some of the workouts, but kept it the same "style."  That's the beauty of beachbody on demand...there's literally THOUSANDS of different workouts to choose from.
