Humble

So I'm talking to one of my piano students as we walk to the copy machine the other and the conversation went something like this...

Blake: Miss Stephens you walk fast!

Miss Stephens: I do! I have lots to do!

Blake: I'm fast too. I'm always the first one to finish my math homework in class.

Miss Stephens: I believe it! It's because you're so smart!

Blake: I know I am!

Miss Stephens: (jokingly) ...and you're humble too!

Blake: I know I am!

Miss Stephens: Do you know what "humble" means?

Blake: No...but I know I am!

Ben's Visit!!!



I'm going to start this post off with my apologies to everyone for falling off the face of the earth these past couple weeks. Ben came to visit and we had a fantastic time! I somehow still managed to attend most my graduate classes and taught all my elementary classes (and even managed to pull off a program!) Here are some pics from our adventures!



We went to a Spurs game one night because I had to make Ben a Spurs fan! We had so much fun! We even managed to get about 7 rows from the floor!!!



We went to a Halloween Party at Karessa's sister's house and we won the "Best Costume" trophy with our awesome hippie outfits!



On Halloween, we carved a pumpkin and Ben dressed up and passed out tons of candy to the neighborhood kids! He was so awesome!!



We spent an evening downtown and went to the Alamo and dinner at the Rainforest Cafe. We had ribs, steak and shrimp! It was AMAZING!



Downtown we made a visit to Davy Crockett's outhouse. CLASSIC!



Ben's birthday is in November so we celebrated early! I took him to Gruene, TX and we walked around the little historic town and had a great lunch. We made sure to stop in the general store to pick up nerds and pop rocks!



Ben's last night here we went to Hondo, TX to a corn maze. We got big time lost but we succeeded in the end and had so much fun in the process!
