So... did the holidays sneak up on you too?

Crazy! Where did this year go? I know... it was stuck in student teaching land. But I am done! Yes... I officially graduate from Utah State University with my Bachelors in Elementary Education. I can't believe it's finally over. I can't wait to take my Calculus final and have time again. Be prepared for a HUGE post soon...

Wow, it has been a long time

I really need to update this more. Maybe once I graduate. Speaking of graduation... April 22, 2010 I will unofficially graduate. Technically I graduate in December, but we only do the cap/gown thing once a year in the spring. So it's now or never.

School is going well. I'm exhausted. Level III is kicking my butt. I'm lost, dazed and confused as to what's due when. I start practicum next week and hope to get everything caught up soon. Alot is due tomorrow through Wednesday.

Thomas is having a great freshman year. He was on the sophomore football team and Jr. Varsity Wrestling team. He took 8th in regions and DNP in divisionals. He's been working hard to make Varsity next year. He also earned a Wrestling Letter. This last week he got braces, and he has a girlfriend. She's adorable!

Julia is doing great at Excelsior, the charter school. She is getting As (mostly) and learning a lot. She has a great debate teacher and is excelling at playing the clarinet. She's first chair and earned second chair at the Salt Lake Charter School Honor Band.

Byron is also working hard at Excelsior. He is playing the trombone and is 4th chair in the Honor Band. He has found a new love, the Rubik's Cube. He's pretty awesome at it.

Kat is giving her kindergarten teacher a run for his money. She's stubborn, that child. We love her. She has a great sense of humor and is always keeping us on our toes.

Football season is starting again, this time we are running the league. I am coaching Kat, Julia, and Thomas (in addition to my school work). Is it too much? Probably, but what doesn't kill us only makes us stronger, right?

I'll be sure to attach pictures soon... (I hope)
