Where I've Been...

Arizona...at least for the last sixteen years! I graduated with my associates degree from Mesa Community College in 2003. I moved out on my own and began working as a home and community based service provider for children with disabilities (basically I was/am a nanny for some of the cutest kids on the planet!) Most recently (May 2008) I graduated from Northern Arizona University with my B.S. in Elementary Education. (Go Lumberjacks!)

Where I am now...

Still in Mesa, AZ. I can honestly say that I have found my passion! I love teaching whether it is life skills or academics there is so much we can all learn! I am still working with children with disabilities and cherish the lessons they teach me everyday. I am the self proclaimed FAVORITE Aunt Tiffy to three adorable nephews...just ask them!

Where I am going...

5th Grade at Zaharis Elementary!! I start my new teacher training on July 29 and school starts August 11! We will see where life takes me! It will be a fabulous ride for sure!

Camping/Hiking Gone Wrong!

Last weekend I went camping and decided to have a little fun. A friend and I decided to scare a couple of our other friends with a bear noise. We wandered off the path near a bridge we new they would be crossing. I did not realize the dried up creek bed began so soon (it was dark) and WHOOPS! Yup, I fell! After realizing that my ankle was four times it's normal size and calling my sister in the middle of the night for insurance info, I ended up in the ER, laughing so hard my stomach hurt. My ankle is not broken (but sprained really bad) and I will be on crutches for the next two weeks. Everyone asks "was it worth it?" and I still maintain that in fact it was! You should of seen the girls when we had to make the bear noise to get their attention to come help us! LOL! (Pictures will be posted shortly!)
