Student of the Week

All right!! I get to be the very first "Student" of the Week on our blog! :)

I know I'm not really a student in fifth grade, but I thought you all might like to hear a little more about me!

I have been married for 8 years, and I have two children. Haylee is five, and is in Kindergarten this year. She absolutely loves school! Wade is 6 months old and is over in the AEL.

You might remember me around the end of February with a giant belly!

I used to collect elephants, believe it or not! I still think they are so cute, even though my husband thinks I'm crazy. He thinks they are ugly!

Here are some funny pics!

This is my younger sister and me. I was about 6 years old, I think.

This was my 6th grade class. I am the girl in front of the line in the white shirt. :) Don't I look funny?

This is our expanded family in April 2008. Wade was only one month old here!

Okay! Here are my student of the week facts!

I am a member of... Northside Baptist Church.

I am most proud of... my fabulous students!

People tell me I'm good at... singing, writing, and saving big $$$ on groceries with my coupons!

The person who most inspires me is... my sweet husband! (Aw! Isn't that sweet?)

The favorite color is... purple and red, just not together. I have red in my kitchen, Living Room and my bedroom! I told you I like red!

My favorite book/author is... Lori Wick and Dee Henderson

My favorite food... oh so very many! Bavarian Creme doughnuts, brownies with walnuts, pasta!

My favorite tv show is... Gilmore Girls - even though it doesn't come on anymore! It's one of my all time favorite shows! :) I know you boys probably don't think that was a good show. You actually might have never even heard of it! I have some of the shows on DVD, but I usually just record them on ABC family and watch them as I grade papers or work on the computer. :) I like watching Reality TV shows too! Survivor is fun to watch. They do some crazy competitions and eat some crazy things sometimes!

My favorite sport is... volleyball. I used to play in high school and college. :)

My favorite musical group is... The Martins.

My favorite part of school is... making meaningful connections with my fabulous students.

My least favorite part of school is.... maybe grading papers!

When I am 25, I will be... Whoops! I've already passed that age! When I WAS 25 I was married and was about to have my very first baby!

There you have it! Now you know all about me!
