Home Sweet Home

Well here we are back home, and trying to get back on schedule. We have been home for a week now and we are still trying to get caught up on life and sleep. We had such a fantastic time on our trip to Hawaii, and really can't wait to go back again. We have decided that Kauai is the most beautiful of the Hawaiian islands, and that when we go back we'll go there. Out of all the islands this is the one that I would love to live on. Right now I'm thinking that this won't happen anytime soon, maybe when we retire someday. Anyway for now it's back to reality.
The new job is going well, for those of you who don't know I recently quit teaching and took a job as a nanny for a family in Glenview. I just needed a break from teaching, and since John hasn't earned his first million yet I still need to work. The family is really nice and so far I am enjoying it. It is definately a change of pace from teaching, which I needed. This is the first summer that I have worked in 3 years and that part isn't fun, but it's not like it's a hard job, and I'm outside playing all day. I can't complain.
This weekend John and I went to the Cubs game, unfortunately they lost. It was still a great day to watch a ball game. Each year we try to get bleacher seats to at least one game, it's a nice change from the upper decks that we sit in all the time. The weather was perfect although a little warm in the direct sun for so long, but overall a good day.
Hope everyone else has a great weekend! It's good to be home.

Hi sweetie it's good to have you home! I so enjoyed seeing your pictures and video last night. I can see from this trip why you think so highly of the islands of Hawaii. Hope you get the chance to show your friends all the beautiful pictures and that cute little girl having the most fun and popping up on your video every once in a while. John seemed to be enjoying the trip too, glad you had such a good time! love, M&D
