I want to be a big losreaker!

I have to say that I love love love Tuesday nights. The Biggest Loser just happens to be my all-time favorite reality show. Tonight the final four ran a marathon! A MARATHON!!! This is such an inspiring thing! WOW! I remember watching the first season back in college, laying on the couch and eating chips and dip (HAHA). The Biggest Loser is one of the main reasons why I started my own weight loss journey. I am getting closer to my goal, but find myself slipping from time to time. I just have to keep asking myself "What have you done today to make yourself proud?" Thanks to Bob and Jillian for being so inspiring (AND MEAN).

I also wanted to give Pam and Jason a shout out! Congrats on little Jacob. I can't wait to meet him this weekend! :)

It's Beginning to look a lot like...

CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Since Beth is probably the only person who is reading my blog (well because I haven't told anyong else the address) I thought I would dedicate this blog to her!

Remember back in early October when we "listened" to Christmas music and giggled about it?? Well... I have officially put six CDs in my car player and have been listening to them all the time! WOOHOO!

It's been a relaxing weekend...watched The Proposal, Up, and now He's Just Not That Into You!

Broken Shower Heads....

SOOOOO.....let me just say that this has been quite the day...

I had to "get after" my class for being lazy and not doing their best....GRRR

Then I gained 2.2 at my WW meeting....for the second week in a row..... GRRRR

I came home and was excited that my BF was going to be visiting on Friday, until he called and said his boss wants him to work overtime on Saturday..... GRRRRRR

To top it all, as I was taking a shower to relax, the shower head busted off.... GRRRRR

I'm enjoying a beverage and hiding under the covers...lets home tomorrow is a better day!

Kelly and Marc are married!!!










Another OPA sister is married. Beth and I traveled together to Quincy yesterday afternoon for Kelly and Marc's wedding. It was really chilly!!!! We arrived to the Hampton Inn, our home away from home for the night, and quickly got ready for the ceremony.

After the ceremony we hung out in Jill and Greg's room....the reception started at 6:00. We ran to our table, which happened to be by the emergency exit...hahaha!!! Greg said we'd need a quick getaway.

The food was amazing! The drinks even better! The dancing started and the OPA ladies took over the dance floor! We rocked the reception for sure! Our OPA boa dance was later on in the evening....sadly we didn't have the Wynona song, but dancing to Home was just as nice....guess who has the bag of boa's for the next wedding!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!????????? :)

I am so happy for Kelly and Marc. Best wishes as you start your married life together!

Welcome to my Blog

Welcome! I am giving this whole blog writing thing a try. I am a 26 year old third grade teacher. I am currently in my fifth year at a Catholic school and love everything about my job...especially the funny things the kids say and do!

Today was "Gender Reverse Day" at school. The girls dressed up like boys. The boys dressed up like girls. They were mad at me because I chose not to participate. So one girl cut out a mustache so I would "fit in".

I hope to share some fun and interesting things happening in my life. Some posts might be funny, while others might be sad. There might even be some boring posts.

Thanks for taking this journey with me!
