This May was full of end of the school year activities, including my department’s musical production and an art gallery! Needless to say, I am excited for summer break and a change in hectic pace. As much as I love being a teacher, it is always nice to have a few months off to recharge, plan for the upcoming year, and best of all have a break from grading papers.
Life Updates
This month we celebrated my Becks’ ninth birthday! I can’t believe he is nine already. I still remember the day I adopted him from a Scottie rescue group up in Washington State. He was a sickly pup, but with much love and care he has grown into a healthy, cuddly, and at times overly curious pup. Jeff’s golf season at our high school ended earlier this month, and now he is gearing up for the busy summer hours at the country club where he works as a golf professional. Last week I held my last art event of the school year, a gallery featuring works from our Fine and Digital Arts students. The week prior, I directed our high school’s first musical! I am so proud of my student’s hard work and dedication and best of all they performed three shows to sold out audiences.
Love It
One day while I was out running errands I came across these super cute glacier blue Nike cross-trainers. Not only are they my favorite color but I am always on the lookout for stylish workout clothes and accessories.
