SuMmEr

I have been done with my first year of teaching for almost a month now. It's weird going from running around non-stop with 20 1st graders to hanging out at home every day. We have been doing a lot of sleeping in, watching T.V., visiting the exciting stores in St. George (lol), and taking Jeter for lot's of walks. Jade and I are looking forward to our trip to Ohio in about a week for my brothers wedding. It will be fun to see family that I haven't seen in years! 

Last week was my 23rd Birthday so my mom and dad came down to celebrate it with us. It was fun to have them here. Jeter enjoyed the extra attention as well. 

Finally!

Although I finished school in December, graduation wasn't until May 7th. It was so nice to finally celebrate being done with school. 

Me and my best friend Becca. I don't think I would have made it through the program without her! 

My happy family. 

We went to Zion the next day. (More pics to come) This is me and my new sister in-law (to be) Jess was so much fun. Now that I have finally met her I really wish that she and my brother lived closer to us. We had so much fun together. My brother is a lucky guy. She is Great :)

Good Times

Jade and I went to a friend's wedding with our other friends Chris and Becca.  There was a photo booth there with a bunch of crazy costumes. We had a good time! 

HAPPY EASTER

I bought some eggs to fill for an Easter egg hunt with my 1st graders. I thought it would be fun to see what Jeter would do with the eggs and he loved them!!

Really enjoying the eggs!

Too cute!

I love my Jeter baby, he makes me smile all day long! :)

Life Lately

Life has been BUSY! Jade is doing great in school. He recently got accepted to the Elementary Ed. Program at Dixie and will be starting in August. I am finishing up my first SEP conferences. They have gone really well. I have many involved and supportive parents so that is a big plus. I am really enjoying my class and am looking forward to seeing how much they grow academically throughout the rest of the year. After a full day of teaching I come home and just relax. It takes more energy than you ever thought you had to teach 1st grade! Now I really understand how you have felt all these years Mom! I love it though and am so thankful I had this opportunity come my way. In case you haven't seen enough of him, there are more pictures of our little Jeter below. :)
