Welcome Aboard!

I am excited to welcome a new group of 3rd graders to my classroom!  I can't wait to meet all of you and begin our adventure together.  I am so blessed to be able to spend my summers making memories with my family. Check out some of the fun times we've had this summer.

My boys and I have spent lots of time at the pool, but don't expect me to look too tan because I spent most of that time holding my little one.  My oldest son, Austin, has been perfecting his backward dive.

I got to see my youngest son, Hayden, experiences some new things for the first time.  I was thrilled to get to see him take his first steps this summer. He will be turning one on August 12th.

My husband & I took the boys to visit the beautiful city of Charleston.  We loved walking along the Battery and enjoying the beauty of God's creation.  There are so many things to see when you visit this historic city.  




While we were there, we took a boat ride out to Fort Sumter to learn more about our state's fascinating history.   I will definitely be sharing some pictures with you all when we get to our Civil War unit.











 I hope your summer has been as fantastic as mine!  I can't wait to hear all about the wonderful things you've done this summer with your southern gents and belles.  Feel free to share some of the memories you've made with your families this summer.
