Enjoying the Small Things...

Have you ever been told not to play with your food?

Well...sometimes you just can't help it!

15 Years of Service

I have been teaching at Capital Christian School for 15 years and was awarded with a plaque and a small gift certificate! We had a little luncheon for me, my fellow teachers and administrators to celebrate the special occasion. As you can probably tell from the lei that I am wearing, we had a Hawaiian theme...seriously you didn't think I would wear that as an accessory now do you? LOL! Also, had I known about the luncheon I would have certainly dressed up for the occasion! Oh well...Anyways, next to me is our new principal, Katie Nelson. I have been friends with Katie when I first taught at CCS and she was a 6th grade teacher at our middle school. She then became a middle school vice principal and then this year was asked to be our principal over in elementary. I can't tell you how thrilled that I am to be working for her and along side her! The woman in the middle is Wanda Hynson, our vice principal and on the far right is my fellow kindergarten teacher and best friend, Vonda Mellott. They were honored for 25 years of service. I am soooooo blessed to be working with such amazing women and gifted teachers and look forward to another 15 years a service at CCS!

Smile!

This is what I am trying to do right now...

Fall is Here!

Hello Blogland! After a very busy start of a brand new school year I am glad to say that I am back! I had a GREAT summer but I was so ready to get started with a new group of sweet lil' friends to teach and love and can I say it truly has been love at first sight! My little class is so sweet and make it so easy for me to want to go to work everyday! We had our first field trip up to Apple Hill where we toured an Apple Farm and got to go to the Pumpkin Patch across the way. The rule was that the children can get a pumpkin as big as their head to take home but as you can tell, some of them over estimated how big their actual head is! LOL!

I love Fall! I love the changing of the leaves and I love the smell of pumpkin spice and hot apple cider. So I just wanted to say, "Hello Fall! We have been anxiously waiting for you and I hope that you stay for awhile! :)
