I started the Teacher Wife blog in February 2011 to share my experiences as a teacher, because I enjoy blogging. I never dreamed of what it would become! I have made some life-long friends who live all over the world and they have helped me become a better teacher and person.
I try to keep this blog school related, so I don't usually post information about myself.
However, today I am linking up with Mrs. Lemons' Tell Me More Linky Party!
So... a little bit about me:
1. See that cutie patootie in the picture above? Well that HUNK {Dave} is all mine! He is my best friend and I couldn't imagine life without him. He is my rock. He also balances me out - I always tend to make impulse decisions and he thinks things through. I'm creative and he is logical. We actually couldn't be more opposite from each other, but I love him anyways! {Seriously! Sometimes I have to make two different dinners, because we don't even like the same food!!}
2. Dave is exactly 12 inches taller than me. A WHOLE FOOT, PEOPLE!
And yes, I always have to get on a step stool to kiss him... ;)
3. I was married in this beautiful LDS temple.
4. Because, I am a Mormon.
5. If I was allowed to wear my pajamas {or sweats} to school everyday, then I would. In fact, I am always trying to convince my students that they want to earn a pajama day for good behavior!! You know you've had too many pajama days when they don't think that sounds fun anymore...
6. My niece {in the picture above} was in my first grade class {my first year of teaching} and my second grade class {my second year of teaching}. Even if I wasn't her aunt, she would still be my favorite student!
7. My other darling niece {in the picture below} will be in my first grade class this fall! We are both excited!
8. I live next door to my sister. I see this view a lot and I think it's better than any sunset or ocean!
{Please excuse the blurry picture. It was taken on my iphone and it was zoomed in.}
9. So far everything is about my family... I can't help it! I got a good one!
10. I adore my nieces and nephews and I can't wait until I can add my own kids to this CRAZY bunch!
{NO - this is not an announcement!}
9. I've been on the cover of a magazine and I didn't even know it!
I had a friend mention it causally to me one day and I was like "WHAAA??"
10. I'm still a kid at heart, which is why I love being a teacher.
{And I secretly wish that I could still pull off this hairdo!}
Go link up with Amy! I would love to learn more about you!



Lindsey, I loved learning more about you! I already adored you as a teacher but now I adore you as a person too!
ReplyDeletePrecious pictures! I love my niece and nephew so much. I live less than 2 minutes from my mom and sisters.

I love this linky party - Your post inspired me to join. It's so fun to read such a familiar family-oriented perspective. Is that the Bountiful temple? It looks a lot like it. I just added my link to the party and posted a wedding pic of us in front of the Bountiful temple. Yay for Utah teachers! :)

I loved learning more about you. You are so lucky to live so near those precious nieces and nephews.
ReplyDeleteLoved hearing and seeing all about you. What temple is that? I was married in the Manti Temple. I got to teach my nephew this past year. It was so fun to get to know him in a different setting besides family gatherings. I also got to teach my son my first, intern year -- YIKES!

This was such a treat today. I didn't know too much about you yet and this was a great "little window." It's kinda creepy . . . I know . . . I know . . . but, I love getting to learn more about my favorite bloggers and their lives outside of the classroom. Hugs!
