My heart is so happy today! I have been nominated by Rachael from Sweet Sweet Primary for the One Lovely Blog Award! I just started blogging in June and I am so happy I did! I have created so many new friendships and have been so inspired!
I will share a few things about myself before sending the love to my favorite blogger friends!
1. I live in Knoxville, Tennessee! GO VOLS! This is our year...seriously! :)
2. I have been a teacher for 5 years. I decided I wanted to be a teacher in high school after enrolling in an ECE class. I knew I wanted to make a positive impact on the lives of children, especially during early development. I am grateful for my high school ECE teacher, Mrs. Garrett, who helped me develop a passion for early childhood development!
3. I got my undergraduate degree and masters degree from the University of Tennessee!
4. I have been married for a year and a half. I met my hubby on a vacation I was on with a friends family right before college. We had known each other before but the sparks flew that 4th of July at the beach! We have been together ever since! :)
5. I L.O.V.E a good drama television show! Scandal is my absolute favorite! I love to think I am totally like Olivia Pope, getting business taken care of! I also love Nashville and Blacklist. Chrisley Knows Best literally makes me laugh out loud!!!
6. I also love a good adventure! If I am having doubts about doing something the only thing someone has to say is YOLO...it gets me everytime! That and FOMO keep me pretty busy! HAHA!
7. My classroom theme this year is sports. Specifically, baseball! I do like baseball but got the idea because our school PTA theme this year is "Lotts of Champions" (Lotts is part of our school name). I started to think about our hallway and how to incorporate the theme and decided I loved it enough to do a classroom makeover. Also, I LOVE how tangible the idea of being a on a team will be for my kiddos! Classroom community from day one folks!

Go Team! |
8. I desperately wanted an Erin Condren planner this year but simply could not justify it! I buy a planner every year and then totally don't use it after a month. So in order to prove myself wrong, I bought this cute planner from Target! I washi taped it all up and made it cute to make myself feel better. Maybe if I can stick to this all year, I can buy an Erin Condren next year!

I am going to add my monogram, no worries! |
