Summer Recap and Fall Beginings.... 2009

Wow, it has been a month or more since I last updated, super sorry. I don’t even know if I can remember what has happened since the last update. I’ll try my best!! Here’s a list of things that I loved about Summer 2009:

1.Summer ended to quickly for my liking, I love them hot summer days where it is miserable to be outside and I feel like we didn’t have many of them=( I am obsessed with being outside as long as my allergies and skin is doing okay that day, stupid allergies/eczema. Summer ended and it was the beginning to a great new school year approaching.

2.I love summer nights spent with the most important people of my life, my wonderful boyfriend, Waylon, and my baby boy Marley and our Maltese Khloe. We spent many nights taking our dogs on walks, playing outside with them, chasing them around the house and just being silly. I also love late night drives, listening to the trees and insects (I know weird) but I enjoy just hanging out under the stars.

3.Another thing I loved this summer was no alarm clock. Do you just love waking up having no idea what time it is, I only get a few more years of this and its REALITY, if any of you don’t know me very well I am a huge night person-DESPISE mornings. I seriously could stay up till 4 or 5 and not have any problems until the middle of the afternoon and need a nap. I require little to no sleep which is sometimes a problem when I’m busy and don’t have much sleep in me. Watch out for Ayrika Lengacher on those days=)

4.I really enjoyed spending time with my family this summer, even if it was just around the house. They mean a lot to me and wouldn’t be the person I am today without them behind me backing me up 100%. Thank you mom and dad!! Madison is now 5 and the best sister I could ever ask for, we are best friends. She used to wait up on me at night just to give me a kiss and tell me she loved me, how sweet right=)

5.I spent a lot of time wishing my best friend was home, but I am getting used to her not being here for the summers. Just sad on those nights you see people on facebook going out with their besties and yours is traveling the states. I am sooo proud of you Brooke Elaine=) I love you with all my heart twin and best friend.

Now on to more recent happenings:

School has officially begun!! Yay. I love school maybe that is why I am going to be a teacher. I never was the type to not want to go to school if I had a choice. I am beginning my third year at Vincennes University majoring in Mild Special/Elementary Ed, it is now a 4 year Bachelor Degree. The first year of students graduated in May and most have successfully been hired at numerous schools-Congratulations. That will hopefully be me come May 2011!!

6.My house is officially done=) Ericka and I painted all the rooms this summer: kitchen, laundry room, hallways, Brooke’s room, living room, bathroom, my room! It is so nice I am in love and so proud of it!! We love our landlord; we hope he will continue to like us through the year. He is now putting up a fence around our house to keep the neighbor dogs/people out of our yard.

7.ROOMIES: could not ask for better roomies, they rock! My roomies are Ashley Brooke and of course Marley and our new pet fish Lilly. Ashley Brooke and I are always doing something and when we are not together we usually text the whole time just to see what’s up. We love taking walks around town dragging Marley because he getting back into shape. There is never a dull moment when all of us are home-just the way I like it.

8.Classes: My classes this semester are going great, I am taking 15 hours. My classes are as followed: Mild Mental Retardation, Assistive Technology, Classroom Management, Emotional Behavior Disorder, and Practicum. All are 300 level classes which require a lot of work and time but great learning opportunities. I am really excited for practicum I will be doing 30 some hours in a Special Education Classroom doing teacher-like activities once a week for the next 10-12 weeks.

9.FOOTBALL- Football season is in full throttle now. Drew is now a freshman at North Daviess where he plays JV and some Varsity. Our football team is pretty good this year I am very proud of them. JV is undefeated so proud of my baby brother=) I do not miss a Friday night Football game now that I have a reason to go.
Colts Baby=) enough said. If anyone has extra tickets or wants to sell them LET ME KNOW=)

10.Turkey Trot: Turkey Trot has always been a big part of my life; I must really not have much excitement in my life. I went there when I was little with my daddy to watch the pig wrestling, ride rides and of course eat fair food=) Well this year I was asked to play mud volleyball and for those of you who don’t know me I am not very coordinated in these types of things but of course it was Brooke’s team so I said yeah. Well Saturday comes around and I am all geared up and ready to play, we lost but I feel like we did our best and I actually hit the ball over the net-BE PROUD lol. Waylon and I had so much fun at the Trot this year, we went Saturday all day for volleyball than truck pulls to Sammy Kershaw that night and back Sunday for demos- MY FAVORITE. The weather was beautiful.

11.Tastefully Simple-I am now a consultant for Tastefully Simple, I have my first official party this Sunday I am super nervous but it’s for my roomies mom so least I know everyone going to be there.
