Um Update...

Well I have been receiving some grief about not updating the blog so here it goes... Life is good. I am student teaching this semester. Which means I will be graduating in May FINALLY. I am sure that my parents thought that day would never come since I have been a professional student forever. I am teaching 7th grade since at a middle school. I really like it minus the fact that school starts at 7:30 am and those who know me understand how that could be a conflict. The students in my classes are awesome (well that is my opinion today...tomorrow?). Seventh graders are still afraid of the teacher so that is a bonus. As long as they don't find out that their grades do not really count on their record until ninth grade things will be good. Just kidding, really grades are important and always count! (that one is for Kerry and Chase) In my school there is not a health class for seventh graders. So the science department teaches a little health. Right now I am teaching about the heart and lungs, it is fun. I am also coaching a club volleyball team. They are pretty young and most of them have never played club before. It is fun to coach them because they are excited about volleyball and just want to play.
Matt is working and going to school. He is playing in a couple of basketball leagues, snowboarding, and running. Matt also got one of the best Christmas presents ever! No we are not having a baby, he got a new mountain bike for free. The frame on his old mountain bike broke while he was riding it. The frame has a lifetime warranty on it but instead of building him a new frame they sent him a brand new 09 bike. He treats it like a kid and it lives in the house. Well that is about it as far as updating goes. The holidays were great. We had a blast spending time with our families.
