Slowly learning...

It has been quite some time since my very first/last post! Lots has happened since mid March. First off, I am officially a certified TEACHER! I passed my AEPA exam for the state! YaY! Now all that is left to do is student teach and graduate in December! I am super excited! I cannot believe that, that time is almost here! It's weird to think that I will have my career in just a few short months! =) I have been recently contemplating the idea of going straight through and earning my Masters degree...there still needs to be much prayer and contemplation on this topic.

Spencer and I both finished off the semester well and did great with our grades! Spencer is already back to hitting the books for BOTH summer sessions of school. =/ Before he had to get back to the grind, he surprised me once again with a trip and took me to San Diego for Memorial day weekend! It was so nice to get away and go to the beach and just wonder around San Diego! Thanks babe! =) While there, we went up to La Jolla and went kayaking and snorkeling in the ocean! It was such a neat experience! We even got to swim with Sea Lions!!! I will have to post pics later...I am slowly learning how to function this blog.

After the trip we got to come home and celebrate my Mama's birthday! She is an absolutely amazing woman whom I love dearly. She has given so much for our family and for myself. She seemed to have a great time at the little party my Grams had for her...she made steak and shrimp (one of my mom's fav meals).

Let's see what else to update on...I will be starting my summer job any day now. I will be doing the same thing as last summer which is providing story times to first and second graders at various Phoenix After Care centers. It's fun and def lets me practice and sharpen my story telling skills that I will need for the classroom.

Finally, I must thank Faith Ann for giving a quick run through of the blogging world this last Friday! I was sooooo thankful that her and I were able to hang out and go to lunch and just sit talk like old times! It was refreshing and nice! I cannot wait to do it again! That's all for now.

Tons of love <3>
