Happy Valentines Day 2009

Happy Valentines Day to all my Friends!!

This has been a quiet Valentine Day in our home since we've both been working, at opposite times, me 10-5 and brandon 7-7. We plan to do something fun this week since we are on our spring break. Valentines Day is great, but we don't need a special day to show each other how much we care about each other. It is fun though sometimes. The picture above is the cover of the card I made for Brandon this year. I always love making him a super fun classic valentines day card! He brought me home a really thoughtful card, which is my main requirement for Valentines Day. I've been trying to re-cap all I missed not blogging regularly, but I've decided I've done the most I can, and will just look forward to what is happening currently in our lives. So I hope everyone will keep reading, there are pictures to accompany what comes next!

Some of the things I LOVE this Valentines Day... in no particular order... other then the first picture!
 
I love my husband! He's a smart, handsome, great guy! I know he is going to be an amazing teacher- sometimes I wish he was going to teach elementary because I see him in nursery and he's just so wonderful with the little kiddies. Brandon is wonderful to live with, he is neat and tidy and I appreciate that so much. He pitches in around the house and we share in the cooking. We've recently started going to the gym at school and he is so patient with me as I'm learning the routine he's figuring out for me. He's fun to be around and makes me so happy!
I Love that I'm going to be a TEACHER! and I love being at the mount, we have a great family and have a lot of fun together. We do so many fun and silly activities that you can't help but smile when you are there. This is a picture of pretty much the entire program one friday afternoon in seminar we got to participate in Right to Play... we learned a lot of fun games that we could do with our students. Can anyone find me?? I love being in my practicum, I have a small sixth grade class of 13 students and I'm so excited to be back with them again, learning more with them and getting to know them even more!!

I Love My Family! Both the Bing and the O'Hearon side. I couldn't be more blessed to have such an amazing family. We love spending time with each other and always have so much fun. There are so many amazing people in these two pictures, they all have their own awesome qualities, talents and abilities! I am so looking forward to building even closer relationships with everyone in my family! They are the BEST ever!! If you don't know them you should, you don't know what your missing!!!
I Love My Nieces and Nephews! Sometimes people think I have children because I talk about them so much, but that's not the case. I just love them all so so much!! They make my day brighter whenever I get to talk to them! I love asking them about school now that I'm going to be a teacher. I want to encourage them all to learn lots and love reading so that they can have the best education ever. I love watching them succeed. I love hearing them learning to talk, and talking my ear off. They are just the coolest kids around and I love when they come over to visit us at our home. I also love that my sister is having another baby, I love being able to cuddle and snuggle her new babies because she just lets me hold them whenever i want to, and I don't have to worry about having to ask her! I love feeling the baby move and I love telling the baby that I'm going to be his/her favorite auntie!
I Love my Friends! I have been blessed to have some wonderful friends. I tend to be a home body and need to change my ways and go hangout with people more, these great people are able to get me out! Sonja and I have been friends since 12th grade in High School, and we turned into each others best friend, and she's been with me through so much and I appreciate her so much!! My Survivor girls are awesome too, we go way back to elementary school, and I always know that they will be an important part of my life. I am so looking forward to many of their up coming weddings, they will be great days!! I have so many other wonderful friends and I don't have the time to write abut you all, but I love love love everyone... church friends, work friends, school friends, OTH friends etc!!


I Love Babies! I love that my friends have cute babies and I love seeing them and holding them and seeing all their cute little outfits!!!  I love celebrating in the joy of my friends pregnancies and new arrivals! I can't wait until we have our own someday, we have a little time before that happens but we do talk about it often! I'm excited for the whole experience! I work around the cutest baby clothes EVER and I'm so excited to have children some day so I can dress them up really cute!! Lyla is the cutie up top, Julia brought her by the nursery to show me her outfit that I gave her, and can I say toooooo CUTE! Karington is on the bottom and she is the girliest girl and I love it... her bows and bracelets!! So much fun, when I hangout around her I want a little girl so so so much!!


Those are just a few little things that I love this Valentines Day I hope you are all appreciating the loved ones in you lives and all the things you love this Valentines Day!!
