So, it’s been more than awhile since I posted anything – even after I promised I would. I have lots of excuses for why I’ve been too busy. Here are some of the more important reasons:
In July, my mom & dad came to visit, and we all went to Prague. Prague is one of my favorite cities and I’m so glad we got to share it with them.
As soon as my parents left, I had to start getting things ready for the arrival of the new staff. This is one of my favorite things each year. Sadly, this year I was too busy to take any pictures. Fortunately, our friends the Johnstones took plenty.
After New Staff Orientation was over, Matt took me to Gmunden which is on the Traunsee. We celebrated our second anniversary and relaxed a little before the start of school. Traunsee is the most beautiful place I’ve ever been!
As usual, school started at breakneck speed. One of the fun things I got to do in September was throw a baby shower for my dear friend Bethany whose sweet baby girl was born a few weeks later.
Shortly after this fun celebration, the whole staff headed to the staff retreat. We had a great time walking in the Austrian woods and relaxing with our friends.
As soon as we returned, I began the planning for Fall Festival. This is our first big PTF event of the year and one of my favorite times at the school.
So, these are my excuses for being a lame blogger. Hopefully, I’ll be better in the future. 🙂

Great post! You have been busy!
Tricia, so good to hear how you all are. Anna is now 16 with a license and a car…hard to believe. Nate is leaving soon for boot camp and the Marines. It will be good for him but we will miss him terribly. If you are back in SB at some point, please do call. We would love to see you! Love, Sara
Ugh! Just noticed that I spelled “too” wrong. Well, that has been corrected. Honestly.
