You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance.

Next semester is my last semester before I graduate. I have been waiting for weeks to find out my placement for next semester to see where I will be doing my student teaching. Last week, I received the email I had been waiting for. I got my wish and am staying in the same classroom I am in right now! I am so happy because I love my cooperating teacher and the children are great. I have to take a minute to tell a short story about one of the kids in my class- I was trying to explain to him why I am a Miss and why his teacher is a Mrs. (For anyone who has every tried to do this can sympathize with me). I told this particular boy that my new last name would be Eschler so then I would be Mrs. Eschler. He straight up told me that he did not like that name and that it made him want to throw up in his mouth! A five year old said this to me (How brutally honest kindergartners are)! I could not imagine leaving this class right now so I am very excited to stay and teach in the same classroom.
Thanksgiving is right around the corner and I cannot wait. I am headed to Oklahoma tomorrow to go visit family and friends from my hometown. School is getting very stressful and now is a perfect time to take a break. Oh by the way, I started reading the Twilight Saga (I hated being out of the loop) so that should keep me busy on my long ride to Oklahoma.
I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!
God Bless,
Aly

History in the Making
If you don't like something change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it. ~Mary Engelbreit
So, today was Election Day. I cannot believe it has already come in gone! Time sure flies! I will not state my opinions but today is a day everyone will remember. My quote (above) I chose today is something that everyone needs to try and follow, not matter your party. It is a quote I will have to read often, which shows wise words. The University Center at UNC was a polling place and that is where I went and voted today. I was so impressed how efficient it was and I was only there about twenty minute’s total. I was student teaching in my kindergarten class today and my teacher had them cast their own ballots. It was so cool to see five year olds really get into it! It makes me confident in our future!
I went to my first Denver Broncos game on Sunday and had so much fun! Invesco Stadium was an awesome place to see and I feel so blessed that I got to go and sit 14 rows from the field! Wahoo! This is one reason I love Colorado. I have been to see the Nuggets, Rockies, Broncos, and Eagles while only having to drive about an hour away. There are so many things to do in Greeley, let alone places right around it. Some people seem to think there is not a lot to do, but I think they are wrong! I usually have a hard time deciding what I should do. My fiancé and I just went to the batting cages the other day and had so much fun. I hope that you all can make a trip to Greeley and see all the things there are to do as well!
Talk soon,
