We went fishin' today! Brett, Daddy, and I went to the pond at the farm....Jack joined us later on. We had a great, rainy time :). It drizzled on us,but the weather was so cool and nice...I caught the fish I'm pictured with! :) It was exciting. My wonderful husband is now cooking the fish we caught....we hope it's good! It sure smells delicious. :)school starts tomorrow for teachers! back to reality :)...........I'm getting prayed up for the kiddos who come next week.......

I rolled right outta' bed today......literally. :)
There I was, hugging my side of the bed (clinging to the side of the bed, really)....I went to roll over and plopped right onto the floor. Luckily, Brett had hit snooze on the alarm (he works today) so he wasn't quite awake enough for it to be really embarassing. I laughed harder than he. I told him about falling off the bed in college and how I apparently grabbed the microwave on my way down. He assured me we'd get 1.) a king size bed or 2.) a microwave to grab on the way down from the queen :)

We went to eat at Pesto Cafe last night...it was delicious! Plus, their angel hair pasta serving is enough for 2 or 3 servings...I always bring home left-overs which is nice. We didn't make it to the Batman movie afterwards because we took too long at dinner. Instead we got dessert and sat outside at Common Grounds and then came home and watched Lonesome Dove-the sole movie we both enjoy equally.
This morning I've already gone to the grocery store and Abby is coming over at 10 for a visit! I am so excited! :)
Just wanted to update everybody.....pictures coming soon.

I got to see these sweet girls today....and this handsome guy! What fun we had!
Yet another reason why dear husband reminds me of dear daddy. :) Yes, this is potted meat.....eaten as a delicacy with cheese and crackers.
I somewhat finished my classroom today....as in organizing, decorating, etc. I had a few extra hands to help yesterday...thanks again Momma and Daddy! I went for an "outdoorsy" look in the room.....I love it and hope the students do as much, or more than me. Pictures coming soon! Janice, Lillie, and momma are coming to visit it tomorrow so that is a big deal to me............
Tomorrow Brett and I are going on a date! I'm excited :). Talk to ya'll soon...Mrs. Torbett

Having a husband makes things interesting :)
Notice "chocolate" the bear (that I've had forrrrever) stuck way on top of the pillow mountain.
Can you guess who made the bed?

Things are great in the Torbett household! I have successfully gone to work and cooked dinner when I got home the last two nights. A small accomplishment for some...but a goal of mine. :) Tonight we had chicken pot pie, salad, and mashed potatoes/gravy (the potatoes are a long story......I know they don't really go).
Work is in full swing! I am being super organized and am so excited to have my room the way I like it. I will definitely do a huge classroom post when I near completion.
Other than that Brett and I have been opening wedding presents...rearranging the condo some, working on the farm some (he's been doing the working mostly), and just getting used to our schedule together as a married couple. He starts school next week to get his MBA from the U of A.
Marriage is wonderful :).
