Exhausted: Enough Said

The Carlton's have been extremely busy!  I kept saying I was going to update my blog and well--something seemed to always get in the way.  The last week or so I have traveled to Richmond with good friends, traveled to Lake Gaston with the husband, worked on my classroom, and babysat.   Needless to say--there's been barely any other time to breathe or sleep.  I wake up every morning dragging so I'm looking forward to some rest and relaxation this weekend.

Road Trip: Last Wednesday, Rachel, Kristin, and I headed out to Richmond to visit my little sister in my sorority--Caitlin!  Fun isn't the word to describe our trip! It was a BLAST!  It was so nice to frolic around her new house, love on Kodi (her new puppy), and just catch up on life!  We shopped, got Sweet Frog, and had the infamous Chicken Tacos.  It was a needed trip and a great time with such wonderful friends.

As Kristin said....then we went to prom.
 ..and I loooved Kodi!

After a great trip there I spent Saturday shopping with my BFF, Rachel, while Craig played a round of golf with one of his racing buddies.  We ventured all around town finished by a date at Chili's.  That evening we went to dinner with his parents and friends to celebrate Craig's father's 60th birthday! It was a great time.  We then left LATE to head to Lake Gaston!  We had a great time at the lake visiting my grandparents!
Feeding the fishhh.
 
Love my nepheww!

We came home Sunday evening and well..it was time for the work week (well, for Craig).  My mom took off Monday and helped me decorate my classroom--needless to say I didnt realize how much bulletin board space I had.  We got a lot done and I only have a few more things to do before I feel "good" about starting the school year!!! It was a super successful day in Room 10! Here are a few pictures of my room so far (it's not completed).

Needless to say--The Carlton's are exhausted (I know I am).  I am looking forward to the beginning of the school year and my new "home." I will be happy to have it all complete--Stay tuned for more classroom updates and pictures. Craig and I are off to Nags Head this weekend for some rest and relaxation (hopefully).  We hope you all enjoy the rest of your week! 


Happy Wednesday!
