As Of Lately...

Maybe I should call this post, As of Lately Since July...it's been a while...

So, let me try to catch up since it has been 10 months...

Last August we took another short beach trip with J's family to one our favorites, Holden Beach.  We had a great time as usual, but this time I GOT TO SEE THE TURTLES HATCH!  Eeek!  I'm crazy about a Loggerhead Turtle and have always wanted to see them hatch.  Sadly they don't normally hatch until August or September and those months are out for me with school starting.  The nest we got to see was an early nest and they were ready to go home to the sea.  They are some of the most precious things I think I have ever seen.

 
These guys were the stragglers from the nest.  They needed a little help from the Turtle Patrol going home. 
 
School started shortly after that and I've enjoyed another great year in Third Grade.  It's hard to believe I will be finishing my 9th year in just 24 days...just another reminder of how I'm not getting any younger, but I'm totally enjoying my 30's! 

I got another season of cheering on my beloved Tigers! 



We had our first Christmas as The Dailey's and participated in our church's Living Christmas Story as a few villages in Bethlehem.  


We celebrated our one year anniversary!  We didn't do anything fancy as our gift to each other was finally ordering our wedding album.  I guess that was more of a present for myself, but paper is the first year gift, right?  We went to Mr. Friendly's where we had our first date.  On the advice of some friends we took our wedding cake and the restaurant so kindly dolled it up and served it as our dessert.  I think they were a little surprised when we asked them to do this, but they were happy to make it happen. 


This Spring we enjoyed another Carolina Cup with great friends!


 In the last 10 months we have also had some wonderful times with our families celebrating birthdays and holidays.  We have made fun memories with our friends, and put two houses on the market (that's for another post).  Hopefully, I will get back to documenting our journey together...it's really hard to catch up on 10 months in one post :)
