The teacher and the coach

It’s my favorite time of year — fall. Fall is also Amanda’s favorite time of year. She and Cody came out with me on one of the first really crisp fall day a couple of weeks ago and it was heavenly. The leaves are all just starting to turn and there were pumpkins all around at the McMenamins Cornelius Pass Roadhouse.

Amanda is a teacher at our alma mater, Jesuit, and Cody coaches football at Western Oregon University. What a perfect match — a teacher and a coach.

I love the two of them together — she’s short and he’s tall, she’s blonde and he’s got darker hair. I think they’re a great match. Besides, they make each other laugh, which is really what matters in the end.

Thanks Amanda and Cody, for coming out and enjoying one of those perfect fall mornings with me. It was so much fun!
