Domination!

I just dominated my 2nd year of teaching! Who would have thought I could make it through two years as a teacher?! I am so blessed in my life to be in the spot I am at. I am going to miss my students.. Those kids definitely left a spot in my heart. I feel like each year as a teacher I will be able to enjoy it more and more as I am learning how to handle teaching, as well as be able to enjoy the time I spend with my students. Each year is going to get better and better!

My wonderful team in third grade, Mysti, Christine, Jamie and I.
I am going to miss working with Mysti and Jamie next year!

My teaching friends, Kristi, Jayme, and Cassidy, who all just finished their first year of teaching!
Makes me so proud of them!

I didn't even mention another great achievement! On May 7th, I participated in my first cycling event.. 40 miles baby! I had never ridden more than 15 before this event, so I was somewhat nervous to push myself that hard. At about mile 32, I honestly though I was going to DIE. My muscle in my left leg tightened up and I had to stop to pound on it to loosen up. After about a minute it did, and I kept going.. surprisingly, I finished! I was so excited to dominate this challenge and to achieve something I had never thought I could do before.

It was an amazing exhilarating feeling to cross that finish line. I felt like I could do anything at that moment (except ride another mile.. ha)!

A few weeks before school got out, my dear friends of the SSS and I took a weekend trip to California just because we could.. :) It was a great time spent on the beach and just shopping at the normal H&M. It was another fabulous road trip dominated by the ladies.

Now, here comes summer. So many excited plans await for the next two and a half months! From trips to Oregon and Washington, to Washington D.C., to Bear Lake and to many other activities in the Salt Lake Valley.
I will be dominating the country from coast to coast! I hope you are all ready for this..
