One week down 38 togo!

So I started this two weeks ago but didn't finish! ha ha oh well! I'll take pictures of my classroom tomorrow!

I can't believe I made it through my first week! I am extremely exhausted! But I love teaching! I left friday completely wiped as I know my kids were too, but I also left thinking I can not believe I get paid for this! Although we have not seen a pay check.

Monday started with all sorts of procedures! I started my day with a self starter book that had the kids thinking and getting ready for the day. The whole day we practiced procedures, getting up and down from the rug. How to tuck in our chairs, get our cubby stuff, and becoming friends. I continued this all week. Most of my day was helping the students get use to being their all day. It is such a big change from Kindergarten!

First day of SCHOOL!!

I can't believe it is already here! I am officially a real teacher! It has been a great two days! My kids are so cute. No one to really worry about yet! Every thing seems to be coming together. I feel out of the loop like I should be doing all these fun back to school projects. But my class is having so much fun! They built a unifix cube chain from one end of the room to the other today! It was so fun! Listening to them work together was amazing! and then at the end of the day I like to do a review of the day and one of the kids said we learned to work well together! YEE HAW! Talk about community!
Back to school night is Thursday, I am really nervous to meet their parents, but very excited!
I can't believe I really have my own class.

August 10th 2003!

Jump backward 7 years! Trent and I were just beginning our relationship. We had been hangin out as a couple and in groups since june when we met at Snoaisis a local snow cone stand. The day I met him I thought he was way to good for me. 2 months later Trent came over after Heidi's wedding. We cuddled on the couch, had a pillow fight and enjoyed time together. 7 days later I was leaving on a cruise with my family for 2 weeks. It was really hard to leave. We cuddled on the couch and finally Trent got up the guts to kiss me. That's a whole other story. I walked him out to his car and he kissed me again and gave me a CD for my trip. He told me not to listen to it until I was on the plane. Even though he claimed it was just a CD he had millions of copies of, some how I think he created it for me! :) Mean while I went on my vacation and the rest is history!

Fast forward 7 years! The morning of August 10th, I was getting ready(little to Trent's knowledge, he thought I was still asleep!) and Little to my knowledge it was a special day! Trent came up stairs with a full breakfast for me in bed! He is such a sweet heart! I can't believe I am so lucky to have him. We were able to eat breakfast together. He reminded me it was our 7th dating anniversary!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY my love! It has been an amazing 7 years! I am so excited for eternity!! Thanks for being so amazing and remembering our special day!

Life in the MAKING! !
