We are still alive!

I know its been forever and those of you that do read our blog have probably started saying to yourself, "Allred's wow nothing new!"  But in our defense we have been REALLY busy.  I know... you all are not busy either right?   Anyway a little update.
We have each now had our first days of school.  Mine as a teacher almost 3 weeks ago today and Michael's back at BYU last week.  Now we have started on our schedules and Michael already has gone to bed later than me and I have been up before him a few times.  I fear that soon we will barely be seeing each other.  But I guess that just the nature of things right now and it will get better soon. 
School is going great.  There are still a few things I need to get the hang of but I'm learning fast.  I just had my first parent teacher conferences today!  They went really well.  I have some super sweet students that really just make my day.  They remind me why I went into teaching every time they are busy working, learning and actually enjoying the lesson I have put together for them.  
Michael seems to be doing well in school so far.  He of course has a lot of reading being a History major.  So I need to leave him alone so he can keep up!  :)  
Well I will put up some pictures soon hopefully.  Both of our computers crashed with in a month of each other so we have lost a lot of our most recent pictures.  I guess we have learned our lesson.  We are now looking to buy an external hard drive.  :)  Well I'll update more soon hopefully.
