Welp, it's been a while since I've written, so I thought I would update you real quick on my life.
SCHOOL: Welp, tomorrow is the first day of school. I will be teaching 1st grade this time around. We had Back-to-School night on Thursday and I met a bunch of my students and their parents. I have 23 students in my class...that is a lot. This week has been filled with meetings and getting things ready for school.
WORK: My Preschool job ended Aug. 8, so it has been so nice to only have one job to worry about. Although it was really hard for me, I feel like I learned a lot having that experience this summer.
CHURCH: I am still the FHE Leader Co-chair. Today we got a new bishop and first counselor in our ward. That should make things pretty different. A lot of people have moved out of our ward since it is between summer term and fall semester. Needless to say, things are pretty quiet around here.
MARATHON: I am still training for my marathon at the beginning of October. After watching that Romanian lady run the marathon with 5 minute miles, I am beginning to wonder if I have what it takes. Yesterday I ran 15 miles and that about did me in! I will be happy when I have accomplished this though. It has been a lot of hard work and training. Something I thought I would never be able to do.
SOCIAL: We always do a lot of totally awesome stuff around here. Last weekend we had a ward formal dance and I went on a date flying with this dude named Vernon. He owns his own plane. It made me so sick to fly in it, I thought I was going to die! He also took me rock climbing which was pretty difficult. This summer Ashley and I have been going to comedy shows, we went to Zion's National Park, plays, swimming, hot tubbing, and random parties. It's been a fun summer.
Other than that, I'm sure you've all heard that I am dating someone. He's this guy named Aaron French, although he goes by just French. He is in our FHE group. I've known him since we moved here. We went out on a couple of really fun dates and then we started dating last Sunday officially. It has been great so far. He always comes to the school to help me out and is so considerate. He was out of town this weekend, so it's been kind of lonely. Anyways, here is a picture of me and him. This is at the Ward Formal Dance.
Welp, sure love you guys. Hope to hear from you soon.
Love,
Haley
