WELCOME!

Wow I can’t believe we are almost finished with Summer already! It's time to start making a classroom plan and get myself geared up for another school year! This will be my 5th year of teaching...time is just flyin by seems like only yesterday I was moving into my first classroom in McKinney Tx, I was the girl who decided she was not coming back to East Texas I was going to face the big city of Dallas... Well lets just say I am a small town girl who gave it a good year in the city and packed up as fast as I could leaving a trail of dust and came back to East Texas. Took a job at Sabine Elementary (teacher heaven) and fell back in love with teaching and education and realized after that experience in Dallas there is a huge rite of passage in your first year of teaching and I earned my teaching crown for sure! Within my first year at Sabine I married the love of my life and moved to Nacogdoches and begged him not to make me move my career just yet so...

I have been teaching Kindergarten the last 3 years at Sabine Elementary an hour away from home.  This year Lance and I  found out the day after Valentines Day that we are expecting our FIRST BABY GIRL in October! We are very excited; but this meant that the commute from Nacogdoches to Gladewater everyday just was no longer an option, an hour to work and an hour home with a new baby just wouldn’t have been good for anyone.  So I sadly said my goodbyes and packed up my things and took a job closer to home in Garrison. I will be teaching Pre-K this year, I am excited and anxious all in one! I had a district class website at Sabine and it worked wonderfully however, Garrison is a bit smaller and we don’t have that option; but I like the idea of being able to add and create my own online space for my classroom stuff, thus the reason for this blog! Please take a look around but keep in mind I am new at this and would love any input and ideas!
