We wanted to create this blog to keep the people we love, near and far, close to us and what we are doing. We recently got married, August 1, and we have had a lot of fun starting our lives together. This way we can keep everyone in the loop and share pictures and stories with people all around the country--and the world!
Allison just started her second year teaching at Highland Park High School in St. Paul. She teaches in the school's special education department, working with children with emotional disabilities. She loves it--she is always looking for ways to better teach her students. Desmond just started his first year of law school at William Mitchell in St. Paul. Law school is tough, but Desmond is working hard to reach his goal of working as an attorney.
Outside of school and work, we are enjoying spending time together in a house we are renting in South Saint Paul, a suburb of St. Paul. This past summer we started a vegetable and flower garden in the backyard, and we loved choosing the plants and growing our garden--and we are especially enjoying eating our produce! Desmond has also started carefully planning our garden for next year. We have also been enjoying being able to cook and bake together, making everything from sourdough bread to pot roast to chicken soup. When we have time, we love exploring the twin cities and taking off on weekend road trips.
We are excited to post pictures and stories for everyone to enjoy! Please respond to let us know how you are doing!
Love,
Desmond and Allison
