Coach Smith

Nothing really exciting has been going on around here. I have been teaching music everyday and coming home pooped! I also have had a meeting after school 3 out of 5 days this week, so that has kept me busy. I guess they think new teachers don't have enough to do already,so let's add a few more things for them to do.

On Tuesday I didn't have any meetings and Russell had his first football game of the season. So being the supportive wife that I am, I went. I really like going to his games, because they get me out of the house and into the outdoors for a few hours a week. I am gonna be honest and tell you that half the time I don't know what is going on out on the field, but it is still fun. I think I need a guide book for referee calls. I mean all of a sudden the ball is caught and moved pretty far down the field but they are starting further back than when they first started. I don't know what happened. I guess I never will.

Russell is a wonderful coach! His kids won the game 24-14. He works at a wonderful school and really enjoys what he is doing. I took a few pictures and I hope you enjoy them! I thought you might enjoy seeing the coach in action.

Just a Quick Update

Just thought I would let everyone know that I have completed one week of school and I am planning on going back next week! It was a good week. I had some tough kids and I had some great kids so it kind of balances everything out. Russell and I did get moved last weekend. Yes, it was the weekend before school started. My mom and dad were such troupers and came down to help unpack. I was a little bit worried about having the big stuff done before school got started. Mom stayed up late on Saturday night and got my kitchen and some other stuff unpacked for me. Thanks mom and dad we couldn't have done it without you. Well, that's about it for right now. I hope to have some pictures up of the new apartment in the next month. It will be a little slow getting it decorated since I have a real job now. Once we get internet in our new place I will try to put some pictures up of my classroom. It is super cute!

That's all for now! Have a great weekend!
