It Has Been A Year

Wow! What a year! It is hard to believe we have been in Lubbock for almost one year. It has been a busy one with many changes! Randal has been busier than ever with his new position at SPEC. Working for a small 1A school has kept me wearing many different hats all year long. I taught both junior high and high school computer courses and the eleventh grade U.S. History. I helped coordinate Elementary and Junior High UIL, co-managed the Junior High and High School basketball concession stands and co-coordinated the Junior/Senior Prom. Everyone knows how fond I am of concession stand duty!!!!!!!! Along with all of this, I continued to teach part-time for a small college. God knew we all needed to keep busy this year to help us adjust to our new life. We have and continue to make new friends, but miss the old ones more than ever!

Ashley has had some big changes too! Last weekend she graduated from college! Ashley graduated with her Bachelors in Human Science in the field of Restaurant, Hotel and Institutional Management. Randal and I were so proud to see her walk the isle for her diploma. These last four years have really gone fast! I remember how upset we were when she first left for college. We missed her so much! To help celebrate we had family in for the weekend: Ma, Nana, Bert, Tracy, Brody, Amanda and baby Kayden. Kayden is so sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Our friend Sarah joined us for a fajita supper on graduation night. I will be adding some pictures from the graduation.
