Kicking off the summer....

Here are a select few pictures from Jen's wedding 5/28/2010























I'm back again. As much as I try to be diligent about posting on my blog, let's face it, it isn't going to happen :) I check other people's blogs daily and love when they update, but just can't get myself motivated to do the same.

What's been going on? well, as most of you know...my sister, Jen, got married over Memorial Day weekend in Galveston. The wedding was beautiful, and it was so great to see family! I really enjoyed being able to spend time with family that I don't get to see very often.

I am mostly done with work for the summer. As a speech pathologist, the children I serve in the school district fall under the special education umbrealla. Because of this, we have to have yearly meetings for each of our students to talk about the progress they are making on their goals. In Texas we call these meetings: ARD meetings. Well, I have to go back to an ARD meeting tomorrow morning because the parents disagreed with our (the school district's) recommendations. I have a feeling it is not going to go well, so I am just hoping for civility during the meeting!

I mentioned in my last post that I interviewed with a home health company. Well, I decided to take on one client over the summer. My client is a two-year-0ld little boy who was born prematurely at 28 weeks. When he was born, he suffered a brain hemmorage, and was hospitalized for the first six months of his life. Now, he has mild cerebral palsy and is still fed via a g-tube (tube inserted directly to the stomach). He is a handful!!! I have only seen him twice for therapy, but boy does he keep me on my toes! Try keeping a two-year-old occupied (for therapy purposes) for 45 minutes straight!!!
Other than that, I am just taking the time to relax over the summer! I spend my days by working out in the morning, and then reading/watching TV in the afternoon. I know, you are all envious of my busy lifestyle!!!

In other random news, Chris and I will be going to Playa Del Carmen in two weeks. We will be there for about five days, and I am so exctied. Mom and Dad will be coming through Austin this weekend to drop off their cat, Alley. They are driving to Michigan to visit Jen and David, and we get cat duty :)
