Saturday night we hosted our annual BBQ. It was a lot calmer than last year, but still a great time. Many of our friends came and we enjoyed them all! Nathan stayed up all night the night before preparing and cooking the food. So needless to say today he is wiped out but he says it was all worth it.
Unfortunately, I did not take any pictures. Oh well!
Well as far as school goes...we have...29 days until summer. I think this is the first year that I am busting at the seams for summer to get here...I think because I am one year closer to BIG school! YEAH! College is going well. I am taking 2 classes this summer, so it will be a low key summer I am hoping!
Lucy is great as usual and so is Nathan. We are just living our blessed life!

Belated VDay
Friday at school the kids passed out VDay cards for their friends and were cute getting excited about what was in each box. They each had their own decorated vday box! At the end of the day they were very hyped up...and I didnt even give them candy!
Well for the actual VDay we sat here on the couch, I did laundry and we watched TV...WOW too much excitement for one to handle!!!
We are not much on crowds and we knew that Sat night would be unreal...so we went to lunch on Sunday at Provinos thanks to our gift certificate from Christmas! Then we walked around Wal Mart quickly so we wouldn't buy too much, then came home and crashed!
This week I am at home ALL week and loving every minute of it! Today I have scrubbed half the kitchen, and vacuumed the living room and hall way. The kitchen was much needed and I am embarrassed to see how much dirt was on the floor :(
Tomorrow I am heading to a friends house after I finish the remainder of the kitchen floor.
Saturday I have a fun filled day! I am going to Chuckie Cheese for Alex and Masons bday celebration, and then off to Monroe for a friends wedding shower...then to my moms to hang out for a bit and get my futon. YEAH!
Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

We made it!
Yesterday was 100 days of school! Yeah. I am so proud of my children coming to school for 100days. Now the good part is we ONLY have 80 days until summer break!!!! The best part of teaching!!!
College is coming along. I am actually starting to get excited about the end result. I am taking more education classes now, and I am waiting my results from the GACE to get admitted into the Price School of Education. The other day I posted my salary schedule for my years of teaching. That made Nathan quite excited! For now I am continuing along with all the mounds of homework that pile up!!!
We had a great Christmas. Busy as usual! Nathan got his family Bodies Exhibit ticket for Christmas, so we all went the Saturday after. It was quite interesting. I thought the babies part was just awesome to see the tiny egg, then in 9 short months it is a baby! It is truely a miracle. Speaking of miracles...My neighbors became parents for the first time on Monday. Miss Avery was born very quickly...more power to Courtney. Can't wait to meet her...once I get over this yucky cold, I will be knocking on their door! :)
New Years Eve we spent with Megan and Tony, and had a great time over at their house. After being at their house and playing the Wii, Nathan and I really want one...so that will be in our near future.. once we can find one reasonably priced!
New Years Day my sister in law cooked lunch and it was delicious!
I did not make any resolutions this year, because they always seem to disintegrate after about 2 weeks. I am bad I know!
Well that is the excitement of our lives. Coming up next is mom and GG's birthday and Fall break!!!
I will try and update this more often!

Goal...Accomplished!
My goal today was to put up the Christmas tree and decorate it! And I did it! I do not have a star yet, but that will come soon!
Under the tree is a teddy bear one of my students gave me last year! So sweet!
And this is what Lucy did all day! ---------------------->
What we have been up to...
With the holidays coming up and the fast approaching final exams, I have felt like a hermit/computer nerd in my own house. I have done nothing but research for the dreaded thesis paper due in American Lit. and still no idea where to start! But I will get through it!
Last Sunday we went to my cousins house in Eatonton and had Thanksgiving. It was nice to visit with my aunt! It is a long drive, but my cousins new husband so graciously took the responsibility of driving and all I had to do was sit back and relax! That was nice.
Nathan did not go with us because he has been in tremendous pain with his elbow.Not sure what exactly is going on with it...the doctor says its tennis elbow...we think it might be bursitis or something along that line. Anyways, I spent that day without him, which is one of my least favorite things to do!
I have been off work all week, which has been nice and relaxing, and got many things around the house done. Today I will put up the Christmas tree...after my nap!
Wednesday I had lunch with a long time friend, Jessica, and we had a great time. She helped me find a much needed duvet cover at Linens N Things! That store is going out of business, and I got a $80 cover for $31! I was impressed!
Then yesterday, Thanksgiving, we went to Nathans moms side of the family first, and then to his dads side. It was a great time at both!
After all the festivities we came home, built a fire, and crashed!
This morning I woke up and took Nathan to work, and figured that since I was already up, I would hit some stores. I am not too much of a early morning shopper, but after 7am I am ok. So I got was I wanted at Staples, and walked right out...no wait. Then went to the crazy hole...AKA Walmart, and was informed that the sheets that I thought were a good deal, but did not need too bad to stand in line at 3 am, were sold out...oh well. That is what I call Black Friday fun! I might go back out later to buy Christmas ornaments! Let the Christmas festivities begin!
Tomorrow we are going to my other aunts to have Thanksgiving with the other half of my family...long story...and fry turkey and all the yummy food there!
then...Sunday we go to the Cipriani's for our annual Turkey Tetrazzini...then Monday is back to work!
Well...thats a wrap up of what the Goss household has been up to! Busy, tiring, yet together we have lots of fun!

Happy Anniversary!
Yesterday Nathan and I celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary. We both cannot believe its already been two years. Time flies when you are having fun!
Monday night we decided to go to dinner because we wanted to be able to relax the next day and enjoy each other. Oh side note, we took Monday and Tuesday off from work. So we went to Kyma, which is part of the Buckhead Diner Group, and I had a gift card I recieved as a gift. So that paid for a quarter of our meal. Then while we were there we realized it was resturant week. For those who do not know what resturant week is, it is where the "fancy" restruants have a special 3 course meal for $29 each! So we decided that we would come back the next night, which was actually our anniversary, and eat off the "cheap" menu. So we went back last night to Atlanta Fish Market, and it was pretty good! Then of course we came home and were in bed by 9:30pm. We are getting old!
The picture above is from our traditional, because I made it a tradition, anniversary before dinner picture.
The picture below is Lucy wanting to be in the picture also! She is so funny. 
The weekend was uneventful, except for the awesome Soup Swap I went to Sunday and learned how to make homemade carmel sauce...yummy!
This Satruday I take the GACE, please pray for me. I HAVE to pass it to get into the PSOE at school.
Sunday we are thinking of going to ride the motorcycle somewhere! I love the fall weather!
