Me and my dad have always had a pretty good relationship. In my teenage years, we began to argue more, but now I can honestly look back and say that my father has always had my best interest at heart. My dad has always been there for me and has always been such a godly example to me. I am blessed to have such a wonderful relationship with my father. I love him more than anything. Thank you dad for loving me when I didn't deserve it, caring for me when I was rebellious, giving me more than I even deserve, pushing me to want to be the best. I LOVE YOU DAD!!!!!!<br /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmGMvij0blfCNNjlHzlqvUYfhegsM6Z72Az6E5Yu4XLt8u61y3zgW5uavCEDBR-6t8tJMqbda7OKxfo6BuvOYc0vHu78ezqG-q9lGt5nALwNTOBi63ZNmmbZOgiD3f0yzaIOsy9L5_aQ/s1600/IMG_3185.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmGMvij0blfCNNjlHzlqvUYfhegsM6Z72Az6E5Yu4XLt8u61y3zgW5uavCEDBR-6t8tJMqbda7OKxfo6BuvOYc0vHu78ezqG-q9lGt5nALwNTOBi63ZNmmbZOgiD3f0yzaIOsy9L5_aQ/s320/IMG_3185.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620051969795283410" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIMRNcJzsnVp2rwxve_hEXCjaSE1vM04pmX0hIv_CfsGcCG4-1ISG0V9yvSxyTSFykesvo-64L6Sw6vjHp7LrfN7WdhyphenhyphenVui-dfRtNKpSmpG9_ESj_CuEmpprdDZxE1ybf_DOBUAMUkQQ/s1600/DSC_6467.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIMRNcJzsnVp2rwxve_hEXCjaSE1vM04pmX0hIv_CfsGcCG4-1ISG0V9yvSxyTSFykesvo-64L6Sw6vjHp7LrfN7WdhyphenhyphenVui-dfRtNKpSmpG9_ESj_CuEmpprdDZxE1ybf_DOBUAMUkQQ/s320/DSC_6467.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620051959132948402" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfnjJ81_nIfqFCuQSQaPQFXjfhmepueXB4AHZIrnke6Qs6SC6vQEovHw1kZOnkxJer3otlETp7s06z98J2YMdkOQTQBWo2y94L_dReAsTpqWWHyAQtSzSR4Q3s_NCBzW6RnFK1NHZjjw/s1600/DSC_6764.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfnjJ81_nIfqFCuQSQaPQFXjfhmepueXB4AHZIrnke6Qs6SC6vQEovHw1kZOnkxJer3otlETp7s06z98J2YMdkOQTQBWo2y94L_dReAsTpqWWHyAQtSzSR4Q3s_NCBzW6RnFK1NHZjjw/s320/DSC_6764.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620051953719018722" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDS_I996Gosj27qx7-jpPHm46c959x4Wvmgp1V6d7CYJxr2Bc73-H_lQdFJLgOzgwvQ91HgiY6MCEEaqVuEe7i4R7Qk18Q1i0erbbOO9qUBNU1rLZHMt4mS9C_7Yxpcj1Zsz6j-dTegA/s1600/Allie+Wedding+253.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDS_I996Gosj27qx7-jpPHm46c959x4Wvmgp1V6d7CYJxr2Bc73-H_lQdFJLgOzgwvQ91HgiY6MCEEaqVuEe7i4R7Qk18Q1i0erbbOO9qUBNU1rLZHMt4mS9C_7Yxpcj1Zsz6j-dTegA/s320/Allie+Wedding+253.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620051985759765458" border="0" /></a>Alliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05066669933340313309noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579646870051118957.post-10675854441367497802011-06-11T18:21:00.001-07:002011-06-11T18:40:55.075-07:00Falling BehindIt has been close to a year since my last blog and I am quickly falling behind. With the beginning of summer, my goal is to get back into the routine of doing this. There has been so many changes in my life since my last post. One of the major one's is that I am now a married woman. I absolutely love it. We have yet to kill each other so far so I guess that's a good start : ) BUT seriously.. Boys and girls/men and women are SOOOO different and I am quickly learning that. I have read so many books about the differences and always known this, but I feel like until you live with someone of the opposite sex does this really begin to unfold.<br /> <br /> These past two months have been wonderful, but they have been a learning experience for the both of us. One of the major things I have learned about myself is just how selfish I really am. Many times I used to not even think of it as being "selfish" but now it is coming out. I have learned many things and know that I will learn so much more. We have had a wonderful start so far and I look forward to the future!! Here are some pictures from my wedding day.. It went so well and I truly could not have asked for better weather or even for things to have ran smoother. It was a wonderful weekend to be surrounded by all of our family and friends. Thank you to all for making it truly a day to remember!!!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5Y_pHyReISFq6kWaOWLqzDBPqb9_XjsqoP56jvCnTz3Y8I9TWxbZVyjpgBSJhXeo_wA8cJs8VVmB1qApB4kTngvgpe7ZkkhyudzK7hvKXgKmlj1Cxa8cUqWE1nEUfnQBVtDp06N032w/s1600/DSC_5957.jpg"><img style="display: block;

I hate to dress up, haunted houses, being scared, ect. Yes, I know that a lot of people love it, but I've never enjoyed it. To be completely honest, it scares me to a degree. I really don't enjoy being out past dark on Halloween night. Yes, you can class me a grandma, but it's the truth. This year I had the chance to take Rader out to the Westwood fall festival. Courtney was sick and John was working a booth out there so Caleb and myself took him on a little field trip to the mall. He was a little pumpkin and a very cute one I might add.

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to go down to LSU for the Tennessee vs. LSU game. Me and my dad took off for the weekend to head down and check out New Orleans. Let me just say, it was quite an experience. We flew out of Atlanta on Friday night and arrived in New Orleans just before 9:00. This was my first trip to New Orleans so I wanted to see the city. Even though it was so late, my dad was a trooper and took me "out on the town" :) I wanted to see Bourbon street and the city. It was insane. There are no words that can describe this city. You just have to see it for yourself. Bourbon Street was nuts!! I had my expectations from the things that I had heard once before, but it far exceeded my expectations. I definitely know why people call New Orleans "sin city" because it is fully of partying, bars, & crazy people. We also had a chance to see the MS River, the French Quarters, Jackson Square, and have a wonderful beignet (which is basically a donut covered in powered sugar). Now, the game on the other hand was not so much fun. I must say that I was very angry after the outcome of that game, but my dad kept reminding me that it is just a game. Crazy how I used to always have to remind him of that when I was little and now we have reversed roles. haha Here are some pictures from our trip.<br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqQ3disUO0Odnl_co_2qN7JtmJRnLV2QnjCsYFbqBPb7gif3GbbfQgQVG5T4QQKkuSZ_4oqIbv6LxxbyN6GEDmgAvqQE6SY_Q0xdRK_Ne04SVnLEk7BF0a6_aqRWEdl83lyyBBaEj1dQ/s1600/IMG_3173.JPG" style="text-decoration: none;"><img style="text-decoration: underline;display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px; " src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqQ3disUO0Odnl_co_2qN7JtmJRnLV2QnjCsYFbqBPb7gif3GbbfQgQVG5T4QQKkuSZ_4oqIbv6LxxbyN6GEDmgAvqQE6SY_Q0xdRK_Ne04SVnLEk7BF0a6_aqRWEdl83lyyBBaEj1dQ/s320/IMG_3173.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5526120085266231170" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Here is a picture of Bourbon Street.

I absolutely love this time of the year for a variety of reasons. I love the temperature as it seems to get cooler outside. Don't get me wrong, I love the warm weather but am ready for some cooler temps. I love driving down the road and seeing the beautiful colors of leaves hanging from the trees although this year it seems that the leaves are falling before they seem to change colors. I am not a big fan of Halloween, but enjoy the tons of candy that I seem to accumulate throughout the month of October. I enjoy being able to walk outside and not having to take another shower just because I was outside longer than 20 minutes. My most favorite thing about the fall has to be Tennessee Football. Growing up, my family and I spent every Saturday in Knoxville going to the UT Football games. This time of year is bitter sweet for me now though. Ever since my grandfather passed away it seems to just not be the same. For some reason this year, I am missing him and thinking about him constantly. I have found myself several times just breaking down in tears because of how much I miss him. I miss so many things about this great man.<br /><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>1. I miss his wonderful smile<br /></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>2. I miss his amazing outlook on life. <br /></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>3.

I miss traveling with him.<br /></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><br /></div><div>I feel like I could go on and on about the things that I miss about my grandfather. He truly was an amazing Godly man and I wouldn't have traded him for the world. I loved this man more than words. I wish that I would have taken more time to spend with him while he was still here with us. Tennessee football has been so hard for me this year because every time I go to the stadium I immediately think of him. Every one of my childhood memories at UT games had him in them. He would have done anything for me or any other of his grandkids. He def. spoiled us and I never questioned how much he loved and cared for each one of us. He never met a stranger. He was the friendliest person that I have ever known and everyone who met him loved him. I don't know why this year has been so difficult for me, but what keeps me going is knowing that I will see him again one day. I can imagine him waiting for me at the gates of heaven. I truly look forward to the day when I see him again, but until then I have wonderful memories to remember him by!!! I love you Papaw!!!!!</div><div><br /></div>Alliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05066669933340313309noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579646870051118957.post-13663414922942465102010-09-23T18:21:00.000-07:002010-09-23T18:36:37.779-07:00Work in Progress<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Growing up I have always heard other people say that you need to learn to be content with the things that you have; however, you don't need to be content with your relationship with God. I am trying so hard right now to learn to be content with the things that I have. Don't get me wrong, I am so thankful because God has truly blessed me far beyond what I deserve. If anyone knows me well, they know that (as much as I hate to admit this) I love spending money. I must say though the older I get, the more I realize that I am so much like my dad. Last week, I just received my first "big girl paycheck" and to a degree I was a little disappointed. Let me start off and say that NEVER did I realize that I would have hundreds of dollars taken out for federal taxes and if that's not enough I have to pay for the health care of people who don't work. Okay I know that makes me sound very selfish, but still it was a little frustrating. I felt like I got more money taken out of my check for a variety of things than I actually had put into the bank. <div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>I was struggling this past week with that and then Sunday night it hit me all of a sudden. Caleb and I are just started a financial class at Westwood and all we talked about this past Sunday night was the fact that our money isn't ours but God's. Honestly, I had never really thought about that before and it was just like it struck me. I had been upset all week about all that money being taken out when in reality it's not mine anyways. God is the one who gave me the opportunity to have this job and get the money in the first place. Now, I'm not saying that I still don't have feelings like I had last week, but I must keep reminding myself that it's God's money. Let me just say, that living in our world today and seeing all these things on TVs makes it really hard to not constantly want, want, want (or atleast it makes it difficult for me). I wish I wasn't like this, but I have to constantly remind myself that I am a work in progress and pray that God teaches me how to completely be content with everything I have. One verse that I love that helps me daily is...<div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Hebrews 13:5</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,"Never will I leave you; nor forsake you."</span></span></div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; "><div class="result-text-style-normal" style="font-family: 'Charis SIL', charis, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><p><br /></p></div></span></div></div></div>Alliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05066669933340313309noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579646870051118957.post-75941288301010785312010-08-17T17:25:00.000-07:002010-08-17T17:37:44.306-07:00A complete blur..Oh my goodness... the beginning of school has been a complete whirl wind of emotions.. Let me start by saying that I am so blessed and honored to have a job right now and that I absolutely love working at Cleveland Middle.. Never in a million years did I realize all the work that went into teaching.. If you are a teacher or have been, then I know you completely understand; however, if you are not I encourage you to keep reading : ) All of my life, I have heard about how great the hours are for teachers and how they "have it made." So now that I am on the other side, let me just tell my non teachers friends that you may think we only work from 8-3 but it is A LOT more work than that.. I never imagined that I would basically be living at school from 6am to about 8pm every night.. I am also coaching softball and therefore have practice for about two hours after school, but other than that these hours are spent in my classroom.. Don't get me wrong, I love my job and wouldn't trade it for the world, but geez it's a lot more work than I had anticipated.. I want to go back right now and personally thank all of my teachers growing up. This is a lot harder job then what the students see. Okay enough whining from me.. I REALLY do love all my kiddos and wouldn't trade them for the world.. It's crazy how I spent so much time this summer preparing my classroom and getting things ready for the first week of school and now it's over.. It REALLY is a complete blur to me.. I felt like I was running around constantly and was just trying to make it through each day.. This past Friday, I went to be around 8:30 and yes that was on a Friday and the worst part was that it was only a four day week.. I am hoping and praying that I can make it through this entire week : ) As of now, I have had time to catch up and take a deep breath.. I feel like I have finally caught my breath and this week has been going extremely smooth so far.. The best thing about teaching is knowing that you are living out what God has called me to do and being able to love on and care for kids each day. I absolutely love middle schoolers.. Yes, I know a lot of you are thinking that I am crazy for that, but I wouldn't trade them for the world.. I love everything about them at this age; however, the random moodiness seems to throw a spin on things sometimes.. Thank you Lord for giving me a heart and an opportunity to minister to middle schoolers!!

It's crazy how fast the summertime flies by. My summer this year consisted of working many basketball camps, taking classes, going to Florida, getting my classroom ready, and wedding planning. I enjoyed every second of it!! This past weekend, I graduated from Lee with my Masters. Looking back it amazes me how God truly works everything out for the best. I had no clue what to major in and went back and forth between teaching and nursing. Little did I know what God had in store for me years later. What I thought was the worst thing ever was truly a blessing. I tore my ACL my sophomore year in college and thought that was the end but God had everything under control. I had the opportunity of playing college basketball for five years and was blessed with being allowed to get two degrees paid for. God really knows better then me : ) <br /></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Anyways.... this past year our summer family vacation was to Daytona Beach. We couldn't have asked for better weather and had a wonderful time. After a week in Daytona, Caleb and myself rented a car and drove down to Miami to stay with Caleb's sister and brother in law. If you have never been to Miami, you need to go. I really felt like I was in another country. While in Miami, we went to South Beach, Key Largo, Key Biscane, the Miami Aquarium, a Marlins game, and I got adventurous with my eating. I was so proud of myself that I tried many different types of food while I was down there.. Here are some pictures from our trip.. </div><div><br /></div></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIGH0EJqfUd_6bKWo4e4PQJ0rL-VPnF3xpO0GaXUfSioGHXYKIwnKdchwHEmw-WzYhMvneNjfdad0ACE4PR4cFfz5xMv3uxtrNBgY_Zz-5Srfr-ERCYODCQAY03Mi04JpyZC5iG-c-Qg/s1600/IMG_2964.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIGH0EJqfUd_6bKWo4e4PQJ0rL-VPnF3xpO0GaXUfSioGHXYKIwnKdchwHEmw-WzYhMvneNjfdad0ACE4PR4cFfz5xMv3uxtrNBgY_Zz-5Srfr-ERCYODCQAY03Mi04JpyZC5iG-c-Qg/s320/IMG_2964.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5502864254824132930" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOAj_phOSyQKCp6rJTKRCk5nkdk-4T0B25qwd4buc9wHwFf_HVIGHgcu1aUVVTl2YKHnW9slJyLJ7lBOHEnmq0smV__euvLPxYWHXbAJNOxnEJPZ8VmfURA1NH4uYRNu-VbdJ8Leetsg/s1600/IMG_2963.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOAj_phOSyQKCp6rJTKRCk5nkdk-4T0B25qwd4buc9wHwFf_HVIGHgcu1aUVVTl2YKHnW9slJyLJ7lBOHEnmq0smV__euvLPxYWHXbAJNOxnEJPZ8VmfURA1NH4uYRNu-VbdJ8Leetsg/s320/IMG_2963.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5502864244176832834" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Here we are at a Peruvian Restaurant..

We were going to have a slumber party and I was so excited!!! I was really hoping that we would sleep through the whole night so that my sister would be jealous, but sadly he didn't; however, he did only wake up once!! I put him down around 8:45 and he slept till 4:30am. Then, he woke up screaming bloody murder and boy was he hungry. I had always thought that maybe he woke up just as a habit, but no this boy is HUNGRY!!!!! He downed the bottle within the next five min. and was right back to sleep. It was so much fun and I can't wait to have many more slumber parties : )<br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgliWVEx7o1UVX2EeYFcuptlOwTLGs8i6jZfG-xhKvu6vtbAZpjoNC7Wn1JP4OTSnKdaq7I03ek_AjyawSl3osXONCONr-8pmdriRP_zoU-IygtwEMkhzbH-3Oq7WIxDHTOQTjG3Q9psA/s1600/IMG_2746.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgliWVEx7o1UVX2EeYFcuptlOwTLGs8i6jZfG-xhKvu6vtbAZpjoNC7Wn1JP4OTSnKdaq7I03ek_AjyawSl3osXONCONr-8pmdriRP_zoU-IygtwEMkhzbH-3Oq7WIxDHTOQTjG3Q9psA/s320/IMG_2746.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489521473991006130" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4E3vwu_CzZ0qronQjse5iy5aN8fDbe_KFNxPvWXyC3ni887uC1edGlmKIi7GBi3NHX2eFKok3XAygzoRIitwEMoKttE-zFYL8OWcHY9W1JaZvgaHyZbDypLcnaVfbd0fhCiQw7isxAw/s1600/IMG_2735.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4E3vwu_CzZ0qronQjse5iy5aN8fDbe_KFNxPvWXyC3ni887uC1edGlmKIi7GBi3NHX2eFKok3XAygzoRIitwEMoKttE-zFYL8OWcHY9W1JaZvgaHyZbDypLcnaVfbd0fhCiQw7isxAw/s320/IMG_2735.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489521468106068050" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">LOVE this boy!!</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiY_Onyj_1c1vkBnCmjiHaa9nIMhKp-3aJRvuYvoj2ursQU6Htm3qVM7XgFPn4o-Rjv06xAOutZRzlDfKEmsb6AXQU59kNRvFWCHgrm4sNrOzsltHlqdUaMiNX_xBN41OQbMWwthlGVkw/s1600/IMG_2745.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiY_Onyj_1c1vkBnCmjiHaa9nIMhKp-3aJRvuYvoj2ursQU6Htm3qVM7XgFPn4o-Rjv06xAOutZRzlDfKEmsb6AXQU59kNRvFWCHgrm4sNrOzsltHlqdUaMiNX_xBN41OQbMWwthlGVkw/s320/IMG_2745.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489521461879845970" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">He is such happy baby and laughs ALL THE TIME!!!</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgptNMz9EsWVE3bsljeGcWLUJCTLzTAOA4cFGlJjhj5jg-TqbCgyY1CTlvfEBNiQMYnk68vqseWKwuPblvTYzee4qjk7LBxcQK4TWVTE-7nq_8L2uBWjpH3MiCA1xzgmgm_P41wUTPvbA/s1600/IMG_2739.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgptNMz9EsWVE3bsljeGcWLUJCTLzTAOA4cFGlJjhj5jg-TqbCgyY1CTlvfEBNiQMYnk68vqseWKwuPblvTYzee4qjk7LBxcQK4TWVTE-7nq_8L2uBWjpH3MiCA1xzgmgm_P41wUTPvbA/s320/IMG_2739.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489521455200316930" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">He loves his Uncle Caleb!</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1V4fd2iI8j4BwaDnSl5qwC59ZsUBFG4Tr9lGOZ1wbJXnHOaZCyKbmDng-HoSk6asQ3QA82Q1mgBhNItufecKebrAZ2Yts7O-Dida7R6qnW8eZqgBHx0TD0viQpIZ0aMN2vS4DVDjg1w/s1600/IMG_2732.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1V4fd2iI8j4BwaDnSl5qwC59ZsUBFG4Tr9lGOZ1wbJXnHOaZCyKbmDng-HoSk6asQ3QA82Q1mgBhNItufecKebrAZ2Yts7O-Dida7R6qnW8eZqgBHx0TD0viQpIZ0aMN2vS4DVDjg1w/s320/IMG_2732.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489521447322089154" /></a><br /><br /><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Alliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05066669933340313309noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579646870051118957.post-73207943146647350272010-05-29T20:13:00.000-07:002010-05-29T20:50:40.912-07:00The future Mrs. Hindman!!<div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>I thought since school was officially out now that I would have all this time on my hands. To my surprise I haven't. I am in a summer class right now and it seems to be taking up a lot of my time. Anyways.. I'M ENGAGED!!! I meant to blog about this special event earlier, but had never found enough time too. This happened last Sunday night and was one of the greatest days of my life! For those of you that have been asking, yes I did expect it sometime soon; however, I just didn't know when. We had already found the place where we wanted to get married and that is where he proposed. About a month ago, Caleb, my mom, Courtney, Rader, and myself went out to Black Fox Farms to take a tour. Once we got there, I completely fell in love with this place. It is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!! <br /></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>So, Caleb took me back out there and that is where he proposed. I was completely surprised and Courtney was hiding in the bushes taking the pictures. After this, we were supposed to go up to Red Lobster in Chattanooga and eat. He wanted to stop by his house in Chatt first so that he could tell his parents. They knew he was going to do it, but didn't know when. To my surprise, I walk in their house and their are my family and friends! It was the greatest surprise ever!! I was already upset because he wouldn't let me call any of my friends until after we ate and then there they all were.. It was such a wonderful night and I couldn't have been any happier. </div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span> Let me just say that before I met Caleb I was completely scared to death of marriage. I never ever thought that I would be lucky enough to marry my best friend. I know a lot of people say that, but it is SO TRUE!!!! God has blessed me with this wonderful, Christian guy and I couldn't have asked for a better person. I mean he puts up with me and I know he would do anything in this world for me. I have always heard people say when you meet "the one" you will just know and to be completely honest, I was always like yeah right. It REALLY is true!!!!!! I knew from day one that I could marry this man. For those of you who may not have known, we had been dating over this past year; however, with the position that we were both in with him being one of the assistants at Lee and me being a player we didn't want to make it official until after season so yes we have been dating longer than a couple of weeks : ) Anyways, I could go on and on but let the wedding planning begin!!! We are looking at April 2 or 9 and I can't wait.. If anyone has any wedding planning advice PLEASE let me know.. I need all the help I can get : )</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvAuaLng5QxkOm8mhL1oZKvh88bS3fxLUN_2a5ZPFLR8bhXkoocuKgAWblaS8wPTAErwXYdG660WTlM2TXkmOsgc5L8RG5cEoEYWpGKV-AygOrthr9Spk3whickmlWcXYkpFiV-ovNiQ/s1600/May23+047.jpg"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvAuaLng5QxkOm8mhL1oZKvh88bS3fxLUN_2a5ZPFLR8bhXkoocuKgAWblaS8wPTAErwXYdG660WTlM2TXkmOsgc5L8RG5cEoEYWpGKV-AygOrthr9Spk3whickmlWcXYkpFiV-ovNiQ/s320/May23+047.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5476900611074199954" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px; " /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">He told me that I needed to take pictures so that his mom could see this place.

The teachers that I worked with were wonderful. The lady that I work with in the afternoon got me a HUGE basket of goodies to start my new classroom out with next year. In this basket were the "must haves" that a teacher always needs and I was really dreading having to spend my own money to buy these things. It was so nice of her to get me all of these things. <br /></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Speaking of my classroom next year, I am finally OFFICIAL!!! </div><div><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i12.tinypic.com/2ufudqx.jpg" border="0" alt="" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 600px; height: 399px; " /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(85, 26, 139); "><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Yes, as this pictures shows I will be teaching seventh grade History at Cleveland Middle School.

As most of you know, this wasn't my greatest subject in school; however, I am up to taking this challenge on. I have also bought a car in the past week. I felt like such a big girl because I bought it all on my own!!!!! When I went to sign for it, I definitely felt like I was signing my life away.

Monday morning we took my grandma and grannie out to breakfast at Cracker Barrel. Happy late Birthday Grandma!!! Then we headed to the outlets in Pigeon Forge and spent all day. It was such a good weekend and nice getaway for sure!! Rader did so well also! Here are some pictures from the last couple of weeks in addition to this past weekend.<br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5467782071965289730" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhx_CDzm8K56cB-gbsDVl9nvvWXbu6XxHZ6mVqNayNVobfTbJIpgwmvHduigO6E-p1LJP3vfu27VNGGGOWpeLhX8MnIUmjw8hyc9Dsid7kWv4L8BYengEGcAk6os7aLKIHsYa-WAJcLdw/s320/IMG_2620.JPG" /><br /><div align="center">He is trying so hard to sit up.

Questions.. Questions..Man I feel like the older I get the more questions that I begin to have about life and its purpose. This past semester I had this class entitled "Philosophy of Education." By the title of the class one would think that it would be about how to teach kids. Well, I that could not be farther from the truth. All it did was make me THINK!!!! We ready several books throughout the class and they began to raise more and more questions about life.. It seems like after every class I would leave just wondering and asking myself more and more questions.. Overall I really did enjoy the class; however, I am glad that for the summer I can hopefully give my mind a break from thinking so deeply : ) Here are just a few questions that I have thought about this semester and most of them throughout this past week.<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>*Ever sit in bed at night and wonder just who you are and why you are here?<br /></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>*How come when you are little you want to be a grown up so bad but now that I am here <span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>I <span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>want to be a little kid again?<br /></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>*Just what is God's purpose for my life?<br /></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>*Sometimes I feel like I am truly called to be a teacher and other days I wonder can I <span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>really do this the rest of my life?<br /></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>*Just how much does God really love me?

For some reason lately my mind has constantly been going and going wondering about things.. I just want to be able to go to sleep one night without having my mind run a hundred miles per hour. Will it ever stop?</div>Alliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05066669933340313309noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579646870051118957.post-88727160074443980462010-04-21T11:28:00.000-07:002010-04-21T11:37:12.379-07:00Patience is a virtueHaving patience is defintely not one of my strong points. I am the absolute worst person ever when it comes to being patient and just simply waiting. Like I wrote in an earlier blog, John Weller's song "While I'm Waiting" is getting me through from day to day. That song is such a good reminder that God has an ultimate plan and always knows best. I went for my 2nd interview last week at Cleveland Middle School and am still waiting to hear back. They thought that we would hear back at the end of next week or sometime the next week. Patience is defintely a virtue that I do not have.<br /> While I'm on the issue of school let me just say that I now know why teachers dread TCAP week SO MUCH!! This is my first encounter with the craziness and chaos of TCAP week and it is defintely just that. I have giving tests to 3 students in basically a closet at Ocoee Middle School. Let me just tell you that the first day was Reading and Language Arts. Part I of the test was 76 minutes long and this particular student got finished in 15 mintues, NO LIE, and as teachers this is what we are graded on. Kinda scary huh?!? <br /> This past weekend I spent it working and hanging out with Rader. On Saturday my family from Newport came in for the day and we all hung out. I have some super cute pictures of Rader that I will share once I get them uploaded. I decided to gell his hair and might I add that it looked SO CUTE!!! Pictures to come soon.. Happy Wednesday to everyone!!!Alliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05066669933340313309noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579646870051118957.post-22966614656584019872010-04-13T19:40:00.000-07:002010-04-13T19:45:52.123-07:00I'm Official.. well almost!<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Today was one of the BEST days of my entire life or should I say a huge burden was lifted. Lately I have been stressing over these Praxis test knowing that I have to pass all of them before being able to get a job next year. FINALLY!!! I got my last two praxis scores back today and I passed. I have never felt more relief then I did today. It was such an amazing feeling because I am almost an official teacher. God is so good : ) Now all I have to do is pass my next two classes and I am DONE!!! YAY, I absolutely cannot wait to be finished with school and I know some of you are thinking "you won't be saying that for long" but I think going to school for 18 straight years is a whole lot if you ask me. I go for a second interview at Cleveland Middle this coming Thursday so please pray things work out if they are supposed too! Have a wonderful hump day tom! : )Alliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05066669933340313309noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579646870051118957.post-77184468892152907892010-04-12T19:09:00.000-07:002010-04-12T19:19:42.346-07:00Growing Up<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>I always remember when I was little, my grandparents telling me just how quickly times flies by the older that you get. Man were they so right! The older I get the more time flies. I remember my first day of college and thinking that I had four more years left and now I am completing my fifth year of college. I also remember not being able to wait until I was all grown up and now I feel like I am here and it's scary. Growing up isn't all that it is cracked up to be. I am currently in the search for a job for next school year. <div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>I have had an interview at Cleveland Middle and am going back on Wed or Thurs for a second interview so please pray that things work out there if they are supposed too! I am also going up to Hendersonville, TN on April 23 for an informal interview at Hendersonville High School. They are looking for an assistant coach right now and I am going up there with Coach Rowe and Coach Kiser to get a tour of the school and meet the coach. It is scary not knowing where or what I will be doing for next year but am learning to completely rely on God throughout all of this. Please just pray that the Lord will open the doors and close the doors that need to be. Hopefully here in a couple of weeks I will know about the CMS job but until then I will keep you all updated with the job search!</div>Alliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05066669933340313309noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579646870051118957.post-78959743515464700912010-04-08T18:44:00.001-07:002010-04-08T19:13:24.527-07:00Bitter Sweet<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>It feels like it has been forever since I have last updated my blog. I have lost my camera cord and haven't had a way to upload recent pictures that I have wanted too but finally I have found it!! Since last blog, my college basketball career has come to an end. It is definitely bitter sweet. I am loving the time that I have off and the relaxing that I have been able to do; however, I do miss it already! </div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>I think it will really start to hit me when they start doing stuff over the summer and especially when games start next year. Don't get me wrong, I WILL NOT miss working out in the summer, going to Bristol, mulching around Lee's campus, selling ads, Coach Rowe getting mad at us, conditioning in the fall, the awful practices that we have after losing a game, the National Tournament Banquet... In addition to the things I don't miss, there are things that of course I will greatly miss: the girls and the friendships that I have made, the competition, overnight road games, Christmas trips, and the Conference & National Tournaments. </div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>It's so crazy to look back at my career because there were several times where I never thought I would play for all four years much less 5 years but it was ALL well worth it. I would never trade in all of the tears, hard work, and laughter that I had over those years. Here are some pictures from our National Tournament. I still have some more over the course of the year that I will be posting later. </div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>So now that I have more time on my hands, I am hoping to be able to blog more! I feel guilty when I read other people's blogs who have kids and a husband and are talking about how crazy their lives are and how they never have time to blog then I look at myself and realize that I have none of that so really don't have a legitimate excuse now to not keep it updated : ) I will be posting my Disney World pictures here in a few days. Adios! </div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKcYoYEUARV7CSpnhMH_NJ89QCcgMW0kJ329VI0RCB56Dg34LTTiM62U265gmZ3vZAa_7Pm3E5o4Qga85g1FlK-9EyK4xCDtaj7jwYF7BJvki7-mtHjJj8UI1AEz5FArsGMU4YsMQezg/s1600/IMG_2522.JPG"><img style="display:block;

Today we started our conference tournament. We are currently seeded #1 and played Brewton Parker College tonight. We got lucky and ended up winning this game by 2 points. It was WAY to close for comfort but hey during this time a year a win is a win. Therefore, we live to play another day. We are scheduled to play tomorrow night at 6:00 against Auburn Montgomery. I will keep you updated on how that goes.<br /><br />Last night was our conference banquet. After being to 5 of these, it gets a little old; however I am a little sad this was my last one.

I am currently trying to finish up school and will graduate in June with my Masters degree in Education (Praise the Lord!) So what's next? Lets just say that you know as well as I do that I don't have a clue what is next. I am trusting God and know that he will lead me where I need to be. As much as I say this daily, it's a lot easier to say than to truly live it out. I hate to admit that, but right now I am in a place where I am just waiting. I know and believe God has a plan for me but I am a very impatient person and am being tested right now. I face this on a daily basis; however, the words of this song is what helps to keep me going. I'm so thankful I serve a God that has my life in his hands and has everything under control. </span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> </span></span></span></div></span></div>Alliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05066669933340313309noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579646870051118957.post-61497646163302974572009-12-20T09:08:00.000-08:002009-12-20T09:14:06.015-08:00Happy Birthday..<div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div>Today is Brandon's 19th Birthday.
