Crawfish Anyone?

Last night, I went to a Crawfish Boil in Haltom City, Texas.

Do I Have an Accent?

I have not been told I have a Texas accent yet....Thank goodness...But today as I drove up to the window of Burger House, the guy in the window said, "Let me guess...you are from Australia, Right?" I had a look of confusion on my face and said, "No." He stated that he just knew I had to be from Australia due to my accent he heard when I ordered my food. So funny!!! I will confess that I do change voices in my classroom for my students to make them giggle, but I hardly ever change voices out in public. I thought I used my "normal, sounding voice" this evening. When I started my job here in the Dallas area, a bunch of teachers asked if I was from up North due to my accent. What? Do I really have an accent? Last, but not least, I have been told that I sound like I am from New York. Whatever...I just know I was born in El Paso, TX and lived in NM for most of my life. Who knows? What do I sound like to you? I think my Dad sometimes sounds like he is from Mexico. :)

Miss Ryland Shay

I just adore my niece, Ryland! She is beautiful, sweet, and simply cute. I am in awe of what Amazing Parents she has too. :) I am so thankful that I live in this area. God is Awesome!!!

God Amazes Me!

This is one of my most favorite pictures I have taken.

Earth Day

In honor of Earth Day, I am saving paper and creating a blog to share my view from 1336. I am quite new at blogging and honestly I have no idea what to write. My sweet sister talked me into getting a blogspot...So here I am. Happy Earth Day Friends!
