Today's topic is Meet the Teacher. So here are 10 must know facts about me! FYI: This is much harder than it seems!
1. I've been married for 4 years to another amazing educator! We are college sweethearts (we even got married on our college campus) and he is an AMAZING husband! Like makes my lunch everyday amazing!
2. I had my first baby this past December. She truly is the best baby ever! I love being a mommy!
3. I've just started my 4th year teaching. I've taught 3rd and 4th grade and am currently working on adding grades 5-8 to my license. Teaching wasn't something I always wanted to do. It wasn't until I was sitting in my freshman advising session that I realized what I was being called to do.
4. I love to garden. It started right after we got married and my love for it has grown each year. I built raised beds this year. You can read about my garden adventures here, here and here. We've had wonderful eggplants, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, and zucchini this year. I love eating homegrown vegetables!
5. I am very much a creature of routine. I do the same thing every morning when I get ready including the order I put my make-up on. I don't like it when my routine gets messed up. OCD much? I have routines at school I follow, too... don't mess with my bathroom breaks!
6. Things I don't like: whip cream, marshmallows, onions, bell peppers, being scared on purpose.
7. I really love peanut butter and any candy with peanut butter! Reece's Cups are my favorite candy, especially the Christmas Trees and Easter Eggs.
8. I'm addicted to Pinterest! Ever since my friend turned me onto the site, I've spent countless hours on the crafting and education boards that have transformed my life!
9. I'm on a mission currently to be more organized. I'm working on it in my classroom and hopefully my organization will rub off on my house next!
10. I'm new to the blogging world and I'm loving all of the connections I've been making!
I'm so excited for the rest of the posts for this week!
