My Birthday Celebration

Ok, so my birthday isn't until Tuesday and maybe I celebrate my birthday for an extended period of time, but that's just how I roll.

Friday started the birthday celebration.  I got to spend my Friday night with the most amazing, most awesome, most spectacular, most fabulous and hands down the most interesting group of ladies on the planet.  I was blessed to meet this girls six years ago in college.  We all worked at a day care, where we cared for children, caused many shenanigans, and grew up.  Honestly, I didn't like some of them when I started (and they know about it), luckily I outgrew that and now have four of the best friends anyone could have.

We go to get dinner together once a month (this started in Jan. 2012 and we have yet to miss a month) and have an annual Christmas party, along with a birthday bash in mid-April to celebrate our birthdays.  Our night consisted of lots of laughs, food, girl talk and texting boys.  Maybe one day I will do an introduction to my friends blog, of course only if they approve, ooh and maybe a guest blog or two....that'd be fun!  Anyways, enjoy a few pics from the night before I tell you about Saturday....

So Saturday, my BFF Katie talked me into a Scottish Festival, there may or may not have been a promise of meeting a boy.  So I went to Batesville on the little amount of sleep.  We arrived at Lyon college to the sound of bagpipes and the site of men in skirts.  I may have made Katie purchase a fairy headband to wear throughout the day.  After the initial shock of the Scottish Fest wore off, it actually turned out to be pretty fun.  There were several vendors with some pretty cute jewelry and tasty food (I may have eaten a red velvet funnel cake, but it wasn't as magical as I imagined).  Katie also rented a dog for me.  He's name was Andrew, however I called him Conway.

We had 15 magical minutes together


Today, I celebrated my birthday with my family, complete with a homemade chocolate cake with butter cream icing.  It was magical.  I also received Les Miserables from my mother, and I have been wanting it, but holding out buying it.  I am watching (and crying and singing along) currently. 

I hope everyone has a great day, and don't forget to wish yours truly a Happy Birthday on Tuesday.

Better

Last year during a book study at school we were reading The Energy Bus by Jon Gordon.  One of our assignments during our study was to pick one word for our year which is also based on a book, My One Word by Mike Ashcraft and Rachel Olsen. Long story short, instead of making a resolution for the New Year.  You pick a word.  If you go here  you can read about that. Basically, here is a simple three step introduction. Step One:  Determine the kind of person you want to be. Step Two:  Identify the characteristics of that person. Step Three:  Pick a word. Last year, I picked the word consistent. I felt that I did a good job being consistent. I started thinking about what word I wanted to use for 2019.  I have been thinking for a few weeks.  I have still been thinking about the person I want to be this year, and for every year for that matter.  I have thought about those characteristics of that person.  And today, on th...

Link Up

Finish The Sentence With Jake & Holly Hey!  I've never done a link up before but I thought, why not.  My page sucks and I'm almost embarrassed to link up and have some really cool "professional" type bloggers look at it, but oh well.  Make fun if you want, I'm a stressed out teacher, that hasn't even had time to blog in ages. Anyways I read these link up things all the time, always wanted to join in the fun.  This one looked fun...so here it goes.  I hope I don't suck.  BTW, I'm such I loser I don't know how to link up right, sorry I'm a failure My happy place... Walking down Broadway in Nashville, TN.  I love all the live music you can hear from every honky tonk.  Or at a musical.... Or at a live concert... Or the beach...  Pretty much if you get my out of the house or work I'm friggin' happy. Whatever happened to... Andrew Keegan.  I may google that later.  (and yes the Full House song popped in my head too...

Long Time, No See

I am not sure why I started this blog approximately a million years ago other than I enjoyed placing my thoughts together.  I also enjoyed feedback from my friends, even though I figured they were just being nice because they are my friends.  I know I will never how some great blog.  I don't have the time to figure all of that out.  I don't have the know how to code and make it all pretty.  And I'm ok with that.  Hopefully you all are too.  I will never be a fashion blogger, or fitness blogger, or any one of importance.  And that, too, is ok.  I just spent an embarrassing amount of time going back and reading some of my former blog posts.  I'm sorry that I subjected you to that.  2011 was a long time ago.  I was a 25 year old, single, overweight, third grade teacher. So Allow My To Reintroduce Myself Hi!  I'm Megan !  I am now a 32 year old, overweight, first and second grade math teacher.  I like to ...
