First Blog

Hey guys! I'm going to try this blogging thing. After my good friend Ingrid starting doing this, I thought it was a cool way to keep up with friends. I'm not great at keeping up with things like this, but I'm going to give it my best shot! :)

My mom and I took a trip to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg last weekend while I was on Fall Break. It was absolutely perfect weather! We had the most wonderful time shopping, eating, and giggling! It was a much needed trip, and I came back with much less cash that I went with! It was pretty crowded there, but that was to be expected this time of year. The leaves were absolutely gorgeous there. They are already starting to decorate for Christmas! It is always so pretty there at Christmas.

WHS Cheerleading is in full force! We have had two competitions thus far. We placed 2nd at Cartersville and 1st at Pepperall. We are practicing everyday as we still have two competitions left. This weekend we compete at Gordon Central, and I am so excited that some of my family and friends will be coming to support my girls. I hope we do as well as we did at our last competition. I could not have been a more proud coach at Pepperall. Our Varsity is doing great as well, and I am really looking forward to the trip to Columbus in a few weeks when we cheer them on at state! We're hoping for a FOURTH state championship! That would be awesome!

My students are coming along at school. I have already seen so much progress in so many of them. Their writing has absolutely amazed me. We have been writing, writing, and writing some more! It seems that progress is definitely being made. It's so cool to be a part of these children's lives and to see them grow throughout the year. They have such neat little personalities, and it is so true that they say the funniest things! They are so impressionable at this age, and I pray that I am good role model for them.

My apartment is all decorated for fall and looks so great. I have already been buying up Christmas decorations. I can't wait to decorate for that. I am going with a snowman theme, because I love them so much. My tree will be ALL snowmen! :)

I hope everyone is having a great week!
