So I finally unpacked my camera cord and decided to upload some pictures I’ve taken of our 2 months here in Dallas.

First, some of the kids that I teach at Bending Oaks High School:

Haley and Victoria

Jasmine, Kristi, and Ali

Here’s a random sampling of my day to day challenges:)

Some of our still new, but already oh-so-dear friends:)

Noll’s birthday party at PappaDoh (an upscale seafood restaurant)

Here’s Christiana and Katy being…well, themselves!!:)

Here’s a random sampling of the scenery around here:

My drive to work:

Here’s what I was greeted with when I got to work one morning at Flower Mound Montessori. I walked in the door, and there was a dancing……molar!!! Apparently, they were having a “don’t-be-afraid-of-the-dentist” happy fun day! Ironically, all the kids were crying. I died a little bit inside from trying not to laugh.

The apt. we were at for 1 month. Hey, it ain’t bad for $500/month!!

The midget cat I spoke of earlier.

Compare that to our apt. complex now!!

This is a neighborhood that I teach piano in. All of the houses cost around 800k.

This house was actually in our price range (100-150k) when we were househunting:

Last but not least, here’s where we go to church! You can’t even imagine how COVERED with iconography of bible stories the walls and the big dome in the middle are….

That’s it for now!! More of our apt. when I feel that it is presentable enough:)
