Prayers to the Bell family

Please keep the Bell family in your prayers. Kayla and Attonda (two of my former preschool students from several years ago) lost their father this morning in a motorcycle accident.

Warren Co. High School Homecoming Week


It is Homecoming week at Warren Co. High School and there is lots of excitement into getting all the floats ready for the big parade on Friday. We are so proud of our youngest daughter, Leah. She was selected by the Junior class as one of the Jr. Homecoming attendants. Her friend, Allison Chilton was also selected as one of the Jr. attendants. Leah will be escorted by Dillion Blair and Allison will be escorted by Rudy Cotten.

All of these Juniors are such good friends of Leah's. Allison is on the dance team with her. Dillion is a friend from Midway and the ballpark/games this summer and Rudy is one of her wakeboard friends from the river.

The parade begins Friday at 12:30 p.m. It will start at the Blue Building and it will end at the Farmers Market. It is not a very long parade this time. If you are wanting to see it, you need to stand somewhere along main street by the fountain or close by.

I am sure that we will be spending several hours this week in getting the Junior float finalized. We are playing the Cumberland Co. Jets. During halftime will be the presentation of the Homecoming Court and a Homecoming Queen and King will be selected.

Good Luck to the Warren Co. Pioneers this week!!

Too fast.......

Tell me why weekends just go by too fast??? I look forward to Friday's so much and then before I turn around it is Monday again! I try so hard to get things done that I haven't been able to do during the week and they still don't seem to all get done.
Oh well, fall break will be coming up pretty soon. Maybe things will get done then.
I hope everyone has enjoyed their weekend. The weather has sure been nice and cooler. Open those windows up and let the fresh air in!! Electric bills will be going up starting next month. We need to save all the electricity we can. I dread seeing the next bill.

Desperately Trying This Blogging Out!

I guess one of my new hobbies has been reading other blogs from so may others and from so many different places that I just couldn't resist trying out one for myself. I am not very good with technology but maybe I can learn slowing but surely.
As you can see my daughters are above. Lauren is 20 and in college and Leah is 16 and a junior in high school. We love them so much and are so proud of both of them. Lauren is an education major (imagine that guess she is taking after her mom) and Leah is on the high school dance team and is involved with many other school clubs and church youth activities.
I have been teaching school for 19 years now. Most of that time teaching PreK in our public schools. I absolutely love it. Every day is different and special to me. Yes is does take a lot of patience. I was fortunate to be blessed from the good Lord with patience that is for sure or I don't think I would be able to teach this as long as I have.
Hopefully, I will be able to remember to post often and get better at blogging.
Thanks to my friend Joy at Simply Joy Catering for helping me last night get started with this! Without her I don't think I would have ever gotten this done.
Thanks again sis!
Both Joy and my friend Sheila at Gim' Me Memories helped me make the final decision in my blog title! I wanted something catchy and they said this would be the one! Thanks so much!
