Busy, Busy Day!

The days of summer are almost over!!  In just two months, I graduated college, bought a house, got married, and in nine days...the First Day of School will be here!!  Wow...those two months were the shortest, busiest of my life...and looking back, it all feels like a blur.  I have my classroom set up and ready for open house this Thursday.  Pray that all my parents are amazing and my students are angels :)  I can't wait to begin what I was born to do!

Today, I woke up at the crack of dawn because the phone company was ringing at my doorbell.  I now have Internet, phone, and DISH.  (The DISH guy was odd; he kept telling me stories about his life in Tennessee with his crazy ex-wife.  Then, he heard something fall and asked if my house was haunted.  lol...I was so glad when it was time for that silly man to go.) Imagine how strange the house felt before we got these things set up?  Without those distractions though, I did get a lot of cleaning and lesson plans done!  Now, I'm at WKU (using free ink to print first day materials!) but I cannot wait to get home and use the DVR.  haha, strange, I know...I've never had it before and it excites me that I will no longer miss True Blood and Teen Mom every single week! 

Upcoming Howard Happenings: Our at-home reception is Saturday, August 6th at 6:00 at my parent's home.  We cannot wait to see all our family and friends!  Lately, more than normal, I've really felt blessed.  I know that I am loved and surrounded by generous people.  This great network has made me the person I am today.  I know that success does not come by chance; it comes to those that work at it.  The people in my life have been my motivation to work towards this success, even when I felt like giving in.  So, to them...THANK YOU!!  I love you :)
