That Time Again?!

5 of the 7 Second Grade Teachers!


Like our 3D Glasses?







I just can't believe it's here again, summer that is!!!!! Today was our last day with our students. I think back on this year and it just flew by! It doesn't even seem like I had my students that long. It's kinda a creepy feeling how time flies by so fast. But I'm ready to enjoy my few months off. I need them to prepare for the next bunch of kids!...... 2nd Grade was in charge of hosting the luncheon. I had Brieanna make our cake and it turned out amazing, which doesn't shock me at all!!! She is simply amazing!!!


Tonight me, Bryan, and the girls went to see UP in 3D. It was cute but to long for me! Here are some fun pics!

Friday Night = Sugarland

Me and Bryan at the Warf in Orange Beach
Friday night Danny, Erin, Bryan and I went to Orange Beach to see Matt Nathenson, Billy Currington, and Sugarland in concert. We headed over there a little early to do some shopping and eat dinner. It was alot of fun! Matt Nathenson was really good. He played an acoustic set. It sounded good. But my favorite, of course, was Sugarland. Jennifer Nettles voices is outstand, not to mention she's a great entertainer. She is very energetic! I really enjoyed my Friday night!

Is it possible?

So I had my one month check up with my doctor and found out two things. First thing, I lost 5 pounds. I was thinking I probably had lost nothing since I was unable to exercise due to my back injury. Next thing, I have a hypothyroid. I knew the day would come since my dad and two sisters have it. Thanks a lot guys! But this explains why I have been tired lately. My doctor was shocked that I had even lost weight, b/c typically you gain. So now I have to take medicine for LIFE, which really sucks! But with this medicine, I should start to feel better and my metabolism will pick up.
I don't know if you watch the Biggest Loser, but I love that show. I just feel like I can relate to all those people who struggle with their weight. I have NEVER been skinny nor close to it. It has always been an issue for me. People who are skinny, just don't get it. We all have different issues and mine is weight. So I have been thinking about it. What would be a HUGE dream that would almost seem impossible to reach. And it popped into my head, running a marathon. Now I say that and think yeah right, those people who do that are crazy in the head. But if I set my mind to it and accomplished that dream, WOW, I could do anything. So, I must take baby steps, if I am even going to consider a race. In October my sister and dad are running a half-marathon. It would be awesome to run with them. So I am highly considering starting to train for that. We will see! I just must find the drive within me!!!!! Wish me luck!!!!

Been Forever

The soon to be bride and groom playing one of the games


Bryan and his momma, ahhhh how sweet!

It seems like forever since I have blogged. I guess I just haven't felt like it. I have only 12 more days of school left! I am super excited about that! I can't wait to just take it easy for a bit. This Friday I am going to see SugarLand in concert. I am very excited about that as well! I think it should be a great show!..... This past weekend, Bryan's brother, Jason and Dana were in town. Their family threw them a wedding shower, so I got to meet a lot of new people. It's always fun to hang out with his family....... The weather is getting warmer and I'm extremly sad. I have not been to the beach yet! I am just dying to go. I am going to try and go this weekend! Well, I told you I didn't have much to say, so here are some pics from the shower.
