Precious moments

Well, I'm sure you all thought I had died by now...I thought I was...but here I have made it to the end of a hard year of teaching. This past month has felt like I have been handed one curve ball after another. I am very glad it is over and most definitely looking forward to future days.Tomorrow marks my last day in Edmonton teaching Grade 6. Next month, I move on to bigger and better (...not really :s!) ...Lloydminster. I am very thrilled to be teaching the little tikes in Grade 1! I love adventures and I can't wait to embark on this new journey in my life.

This past week I have learned a very hard/tearful/painful lesson...How valuable life is and how we need to be thankful for each moment and each of our relationships. I also learned that no...exam results of my students are not the end of the world. So to all of my friends out there..I truly thank you all for all you do!

As promised last time, this blow will have a few pics from my half marathon back in May and also I am planning to thrill all you shoe divas out there!



Figgie shoes- My friend Kimberley was showing me this website last month. This lady is truly a brilliant shoe artist! By what I understand, you send her your shoes and she will paint them how you'd like. I am attaching the link to the website as well as a few pics, as I have never seen anything quite so amazing! As her website will show, she not only does wedding footwear, but junior shoes and anything else you request!!

This is truly a lasting memory! So thankful I shared it with my sister!

That will be all for tonight. Now that summer is almost here, I am hoping to add to my blog some great summer recipes...and if I'm diligent, more of my fitness journey!

Much love,
