Has It Been That Long?



For those of you who do read my blog, sorry it has been so long. Life has been extremely busy for me. Between teaching 1st grade, coaching freshman/sophomore girls' basketball, and trying to spend time with the boyfriend, friends, and family, it seems I have very little time left.


School is going well for the most part. I have dealt with a couple of challenges, but I hope that things continue to get better. I am very fortunate to have a principal that supports me and some great friends that let me work through my thoughts. I do love my class, and we have some great fun together. You may be able to tell by the pics.
If you are wondering about the alligator, she is Alli, our class pet. (I enjoy not having to clean up after her)


As for coaching, I have enjoyed it, but I am ready to have a less hectic schedule for a while. Would you believe that I had 16 high school girls at my house for an all-nighter about a week and a half ago? Well, I did and I got a whopping 2 1/2 hours of sleep. My bed even got stolen by 2 of the girls. Very tiring, but memories I will not forget. My girls have had a successful season so far and it looks like we will make it into the end of the season tournament. I have 5 girls that play full time for me and 4 girls that play a quarter or two each game. They have all been wonderful to work with and I am blessed that they work so hard for me. We will see how our season ends, as tournament is this weekend.


As for my personal life, things are great. Ryan is absolutely wonderful and I can't believe it has almost been 8 months. I am so blessed! My family is doing well and I enjoy all the time that we can spend together.
