Kappa Delta Pi - what what!!

Last night I had my Kappa Delta Pi initiation! Finally I got some recognition for all of my hard work :) Kappa Delta Pi represents the top 20% of all educators. I'm honored to be part of such an elite group of professionals.

To be honest though... I was more excited about my cord :) I remember watching graduation ceremonies and seeing students with different cords/hoods and thinking "those people must be really smart!" Now I get one of those cords :)

However, I think the best part of the night was when my "fill-in family" surprised me. Brandon was very sweet and knew I was bummed that my family couldn't see me walk across the stage. So he secretly invited his parents and loren to come watch. I thought I was going to be the only one there without family and he made sure I wasn't.

It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Once again...it has been a while! Chris got me thinking about blogging last night when she asked me to change her background so I thought I would post an update :)

Its starting to get mighty cold down here! Which means no fishing, warming up my car, and being miserable when letting Bama out at midnight. BUT it also means Christmas trees, lights, birthdays, and gift buying! All that fun stuff makes this cold weather bearable.

Brandon and I also got our pictures taken a couple weeks back and they turned out great! I just wish Bama could have been included.
