Summer is here!

After he threw me off going about 30mph.



He was floating away, so I was trying to pull him back to hook him up!



Taking the jetski out for a spin


Well, summer is officially here! Mom and Dad bought a new jetski. Well not brand new, but new to us. I told them multiple times that we didn't need it, however after driving it and being pulled on the tube, I decided maybe it was a good purchase after all! I had it going 53 mph, but when Grant and I were both on we had it going 54...which is plenty fast on the water!

It proves to be a busy month around here. I leave Wednesday for a few days to North Carolina to see Audrey. Can't wait to see their new house and the big city. Oh yeah, and we're going to the Nascar Hall of Fame..which I'm pretty darn excited!!

Other than that, no new updates on the job. I'm still unemployed. I may have a few leads though, so hopefully those will turn out into something. I'm helping with the summer strength and conditioning program here at the high school, and then knocking things off my mom's to-do list :) I don't mind though!

Hopefully my next post will include a job!

I'm back..but no promises!

Here are a few Dallas Nascar race pictures...it rocked

I am not making any promises to keep this updated, but I figure why not give a quick update :)

Only 2 days left of teaching my 5th graders. Oh what a ride it's been. All 5 of them...we have learned a lot. Well I don't know if they learned a lot, but we've had some good times. Tonight 3 of them were in detention, I know, I'm a mean teacher, but they deserved it.

I am currently on the job hunt. I have sent my application out to about 10 different places, and haven't really heard back from any of them. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed, hoping that one day I'll be employed and able to move out of my parents house.

Well I've been thinking about my bucket list, you know, the list of things I want to do before I die..and here are a few..

1. Go to Maine

2. Move out of my parents house

3. Take a cross-country bus trip with a group of old people

4. Ride on a train

5. Visit every Nascar track

6. Go to Ireland

I have a lot more, but that's all I can think of for now. So until next time, keep on keepin on!

start of summer '09

3-peat conference champs baby!!




a night of karaoke!




a mud wrestling night..





a night on the town with a few of my favorites!



well i decided that since it's summer now, I had better update so people know what is going on in my life and i can keep up with everyone else. Quick recap...We won conference for the third year in a row and went to nationals, Grant and I graduated college, I am living back at home working at the high school, and then I am helping coach high school volleyball in the fall. So there is an update. It's been crazy, but awesome!

I'm excited for the summer and promise to keep updated!!

a new year..

Well I have officially started my last semester of classes. I have officially started playing basketball again. And I am officially sore :) but in a good way! We are currently ranked 6th in the nation, which is great, and the most exciting part of that is that we still have a long ways to go, we haven't even come close to reaching our peak yet.

It's definately a blessing to be back playing again, I knew that in His timing I would be, and now even if I play 5 minutes a game, thats 5 mintues that I thought I would have never gotten. My Jesus is a healer thats for sure!

Here are a few pictures from Christmas break. We got to be home for 10 days, which was great. It was good to see family and friends. Reminds me of just how blessed I am!
