Wilson County Fair 8-23-08

Last Sat. night a group of us went to the Fair. We had a great time.
Andrew and Luis were super excited about eating funnel cakes. Apparently so is Carissa. :) Luis isn't in the picture. Umm! My camera was having issues. This is Nicole, Andrew, and Carissa.

I was excited about the corn. It took us awhile to find it but we finally did and I was so happy.

Rock Island State Park 8/16/08

This past Sabbath Max and I went hiking at Rock Island State park. It's absolutely gorgeous. We had a splendid time. Max takes such great waterfall pictures. :)

I bought my dress!

Oh what an exciting day! One thing done, two hundred to go. :) Hehe! No actually I think the wedding planning will be fun. It will just be hard teaching at the same time but it sure will be worth it. :)

Back to School

My parents came and helped me in my classroom a couple of weeks ago. I was so thankful. They helped me with the shelves in the front and back of the room. I love my classroom this year. So far the kids have been great too. :)

Old Photos!

I got two pictures from my friend Jon today. These were taken about 6 years ago. A bunch of my friends from College came to my parents house. We took these increadible photos, and I had never seen them till tonight. I just had to share. :) No photo shop. I promise!!!

Old Stone Fort Waterfall

Me and my fiance'
Luis and Max. I guess Luis is tired. I think it looks like Max is pointing at a bear and Luis is screaming.
Tim and Carissa Jordan

This past sabbath we took a bunch of friends out to the waterfall we went to last weekend. It's so much fun. We had a great time with everyone. Max set up his camera and we had a great time taking photos. I'll add more when I get the pictures from his camera. I was so bummed because these pictures are from my camera. I put my camera in Max's camera case to "Keep it safe" and apparently it got smashed or something. The screen is all cracked. Not real cracks, cracks internally so you can't even see the screen. It's so sad. Oh well. That's definitely how life goes.

I leave today for teachers meetings at Indian Creek Camp. I know it will be fun but we always stress out about it as well because school starts just a few days after we get back. We would LOVE to be spending those last few days in our classrooms. BUT I'm sure I will get to go water skiing early in the morning at camp and that makes up for it. :)

Cracker Barrel

Last week my parents spend the week with me. We had such a wonderful time together. They came and helped me in my classroom which was much appreciated. The work we did was equal to about 4 days of me working by myself. :) On Friday morning we meet our friends Jim and Janie Simon at Cracker Barrel. It was so good to see them. Janie is an old family friend. When she was in high school she used to pretend I was her little girl. It was so good to see them. We hadn't seen each other for years, but have keep in touch. Love you Janie. Thanks for stopping by.
