Yeah Summer!

So back in November I really thought this day wouldn't come...school is finally out. This has been a rough school year in a lot of ways but in the end I think that everything that happened made me stronger and a better teacher. Today was a wonderful day at school. It was my first year ever that I wasn't emotional at the end of the day because I know that I will have the same kids again next year. The best part of the day was getting my benchmark scores. I worried all weekend, but they turned out AWESOME! I had so many GREAT surprises! My students worked so hard, as did I, and it is so good to see the hard work pay off. I am so excited that I get to work with the kids again next year because I feel like I will be able to push them even further!

Anyway, so as I sit at home tonight it is just starting to sink in that school is out for the summer. I have a very busy June ahead of me. I am going to be going to Dallas next week for my sister's dance camp and then to Clarksville for a family reunion. Next I have a week of inservice and then....JAMAICA! I am so pumped. I do see a trip to Hobby Lobby and the library in my very near future (two of my favorite places!). Oh yeah, I almost forgot...tomorrow I am going to see Sugarland and Brad Paisley with my great friend Jenn!

Summer fun here I come!
