3 months

I knew it had been awhile since I blogged, but I didn’t realize just how long it had been.

So today is September 26, 2012 which means Dan and I have been married for 3 months and 2 days. All is still well and the newly wed sprit is still there, I’m just not here (home) as often. I went back to work again and its as busy (if not busier) as ever. This year on top of the teaching and play directing I am also co-sponsor for student council. I love it and have a great teacher that co-sponsors with me, but it does take more time away from home. Dan comes with me to some events though and we try to make it out to many of the sporting events at the school. That’s one thing he’s always been willing to do and one of the many things I love about him. My students love it to! He’s practically a celebrity when we walk in anywhere. They call him “Manycandy” so we hear “Oooo its Campbell [Hixon if they remember] and Mancandy” whenever we walk in to a school event. It cracks me up! At least they know we care.

Despite my busy schedule I’ve been trying my hardest to be Mrs. Suzy Homemaker. Its actually been really fun planning and fixing meals. Some days it just doesn’t happen. Others I make some awesome stuff. The other night I used some cinnamon pear balsamic vinegar to make some pork chops. They were VERY good! Currently there are chia pumpkin cookies in the oven (although mainly making them for my Dad who LOVES both chia tea and pumpkin anything). Another find from Pintrest (which that is a link to the exact pin I have) that is so good.

On a healthier note, I’m very proud of Dan and I. We haven’t done much in the fitness world since the wedding. I tried to get in the gym throughout the summer, but it just didn’t seem to happen. Well Monday we decided that enough was enough and we weren’t allowed to sit on our rump all the time so we became members at the family fun plex down the way from us. They have an indoor pool, basketball courts, an indoor track, and a workout room plus we can go to another location that has a bit more (kind of like a YMCA type gym). We have gone twice in one week and I’m hoping to make it there at least 3 times a week to do some kind of work out. It’s good for us to be working out and having the routine. Although rehearsals are starting so there will be points that it may not be possible, but I’m sure going to try!

Well cookies are almost done and then its bed time! Another day of work tomorrow and then Friday! Defiantly looking forward to the weekend!
