Back to the Grind

Tomorrow John and I officially begin school for the 08-09 school year. It's been a fun summer, and I have really enjoyed spending time with John and the boys. I am excited, however, for my new class and a new year. I think I might make some "new school years" resolutions! I have a goal to lose at least 30 pounds by the end of the school year. I want to become healthier for my boys. It will make playing next summer so much more fun!! John is back to coaching and loves it, of course. Things are good, I have no complaints! We're looking forward to Sarah's wedding this weekend and having the chance to see the Burch side of the family again so soon!! :)

First Tooth for Ethan!!

Yay! On Thursday, Ethan's first tooth popped through on his bottom left. It was a long week with all the classic symptoms and *poof* there it was! I tried to take a picture, but you can't see it very well yet, so once it pops up a little more, I'll post one. :)

home sweet home

We sure had a fun vacation, but it's good to be home. Only a couple weeks left of vacation...I can't believe it! It has gone by so quickly. Ethan is so proud that he can sit up all by himself. I took a few pictures tonight. What a cutie!

vacation photos!

Take a look at our vacation photos! There are some cute videos, too! :)

vacation update

We left Florida on Thursday about 10:30pm. We thought it would be best to drive through the night to Charleston to make the ride easier on the boys. We toured Fort Moultrie and the Charles Pinckney house on Friday morning, relaxed and napped at the hotel in the afternoon, then met my girlfriend Brooke for dinner that evening. We ended the day with a beautiful walk in Charleston.

On Saturday morning, we headed out bright and early to Fort Sumpter. It was a relaxing boat ride...we even saw dolphins swimming and playing by the boat! John really enjoyed the tour at the Fort. JD really enjoyed the stairs! He probably went from top to bottom at least ten times! That afternoon we drove up to our condo in North Myrtle Beach. It is a really nice place in a beautiful location! We unpacked, went grocery shopping, and played in the condo that evening.

Sunday we woke up and got ready for church, but when we got there we realized that the service had already began. We went to the visitor's center instead, had a delicious lunch in a town closeby, and drove around a bit. JD then took a long nap and after dinner we played in the pool. It was a fun day! Today we're off to the beach!! We're having a great time!! :)
