thrift bowling and my freshmen come tomorrow!

last night was thrift bolwing.

we all had a theme and then had $20 to spend at goodwill.

lots of photos, not much talking today.

{peter, abby, britt, julia, kayleigh--holiday!}

{me, matt, chrissy, joey, rachel--cavemen!}

 {kara, luke, sean, hannah, ryan, jackie--saved by the bell}

 {joe, sara, akash, nicole, jenny, avery--80's}

{roomie love!}

we split into different teams for bowling.  

{my teams score. julia, joe, akash, me.  we won! and got an extra cherry at the ice cream place for the prize. score. i'm sad to say i'm the only one not over 100 (sigh).}

{me, sean, julia--some of last years small group!}

{the winning team!  me, akash, julia, joe!}

{getting ice cream}

{one half of the group}

{the other half}

people tried to tie cheery stems with their mouths and it was very entertaining.

i gave up cause it was taking so long.

my students come tomorrow.  

carissa, brandon, haylee, logan, emily, matthew, summer, catherine, h., joshua, scott, michael, catherine m., melissa, katherine, and maurice.

i'm praying for them all as they get ready to embark on this journey.

i can't wait to see how we all interact.  i'm so giddy!

if i knew what going on a 1st day was like, my guess would be that this is it!

i hope i feel comfortable and confident.

1 day till my class comes, 1 week till my bday.

holla.
