Okay, so you can see how this is going...I'm only on my second post since January.  Maybe I will get better about it, but I doubt it.  So what's been going on with the Harless'??? Well, David started a new job in February.  He is now with Coastal Community Bank and really likes who he is working with.  All I can say about that, is hallelujah I am not living in Bonifay.  For those of you that really know me, I have nothing against Bonifay (or any other really small town), but I am not sure I could have lived there.  Savannah made it through the 3rd grade and will be starting the 4th in a new school.  She is really excited about the change and can't wait to get started. I went back to school to get my teaching certificate and completed the coursework and exams with flying colors, but unfortunately Bay County has cut teaching positions due to budget cuts, so I am not sure I will be able to get a job. I am not worried though, if I don't find a full-time position, I will substitute teach until something comes along.

Our summer has been great so far! Savannah went away to camp for two weeks in Alabama and loved every minute of it.  With the horseback riding, water skiing, and big slides how could she not...in fact I think I want to go next year.  

David and I had a summer camp of our own.  We went to California and made our way through the wine country for our 10th Anniversary trip.  It was beautiful and I can't wait to go back.  We went on a hot air balloon ride which was spectacular and Alyssa you will love this...David and I biked through Nappa for a total of 20 miles.  I know not really something I would normally do, but it was an awesome way to see the land.

Next, Savannah's favorite cousin Meg is coming to spend two weeks with us.  She cannot wait to spend time with her...I know because she tells me every day!  And then, I guess it will be back to school (hopefully for both of us).
