Memorial Day 2015

Okay, I know you don't really watch these videos, but I love making them, so here it is. Today I was able to hike in my most favorite canyon called Slide Canyon in Provo. Even though I'm already out of work and everyday is kind of a holiday now, it was so nice to spend the day with my friends. I didn't have a BBQ to go to, so instead I went with a few of my friends to Red Robin. Yum!

Buffalo Peak

This morning I went on a hike to Buffalo Peak with a multi-stake mid-singles group. I'm not 31 yet, but recently I've felt like I need to start going to mid-singles activities just to branch out and meet new people. A went to a BBQ a few weeks ago and I've gone to a couple of the local mid-singles' ward FHEs. I also sang in a multi-stake fireside last Sunday. It was an awesome fireside- exactly what I needed! Today was the hike and tonight I am going to a fancy dinner. I'm really enjoying it all. :)

It's Over

It's hard to believe, but the school year is finally over. It's been a really long year, and at the same time I feel like the end of the year snuck up on me. Everything this week went better than expected. I managed to finish the videos for the kids without having to stay up late any night this week. I didn't run into any problems, unlike in past years. We had water day this week, a movie/PJ/toy day, and then the last day of school. It was a lot of fun for the kids. I'm kind of glad we had the extra day of school this week because it gave me more time to get done what I needed to by the last day. My staff is amazing and helped me get it all done. On the last day the kids sang a couple of songs and then I showed the video I made for each class. The kids seemed to like it. I got emotional in both classes mainly because as hard as these kids were this year, I loved them so much and I will always remember them.



In a way, I'm hoping to graduate preschool this year, too. I'll be busy this summer taking a class and applying for the ARL and beginning that process. It will be a lot of work for the next 3 years, but it will be absolutely worth it!! I'll do whatever it takes to make it happen.  I have a few road trips and lots of hikes planned for the summer, too. And, of course, I'll still be training for the half marathon. It will be so nice to have a break! I love being a teacher! :)
