Jamie's Birthday!!!

Yesterday was Jamie's birthday. My boyfriend Jamie that is. Figured I should put that in there since there are 3 Jamie's in my family. Anyhow, I woke up late. I was going to get up early and go over there to eat breakfast with him but oh well. He got up really early and then he went and saw his daddy. I got up and did a little homework and then paid bills (fun stuff) and then got ready to go. He came to my house and we left here around noon. Then we went and saw my grandma at her new Hickory office. After we sat and talked to her for about 15 minutes we left and went to eat. First we went to Caraba's (spelling) because Jamie loves that place and that's where he wanted to eat. Well, they were closed for a private party. I bet those people paid a pretty penny for that. SO instead of Caraba's we at Olive Garden. It was really good! When we were done eating we went to the mall so I could return some stuff at American Eagle. I ended up getting a pocket book. And it's messed up (I was very upset). I'm going to see if a woman at work can't fix it though. He also bought a present for my daddy for his birthday which is June 28th. Then we went to Aero and he bought him two shirts. Of course Bath and Body Works is having a good sale so I wanted to go there. At first Jamie didn't want to go but then he thought about my mom so he went in and got her a birthday gift, her's is June 18th. I wanted some black flip flops to wear with my black skirt to Jamie's grandpa's wedding so we went to Shoe Carnival and I got some Op flip flops. Jamie's dad called and asked if we could come over. So then we went all the way from Hickory to Harmony. We ate some cake and stayed about an hour and then we went to Vacation Bible School. After we got out of VBS we thought we weren't going to be able to go swimming but ended up being able to go and stayed for almost two hours. Jamie and I took my sisters and cousin swimming. It was so fun! After that we came home and parted ways. I would have to say it's one of the best days that me and Jamie have spent together!

For nothing is impossible with God.

Emma Grace

I'm so excited!!! One of my best friends, Erica, had a baby girl at 11:07 (CST) on June 9, 2006!!! They are going to name her Emma Grace!! Her husband called me and told me and I didn't know the number so I almost didn't answer it. Well, I did answer it and there was a man, her husband, who said May I talk to Kasey. I said this is her. He said okay hold on a minute. I said okay. I was wondering who is they man calling me at midnight my time. hehe. But then he came back on the phone and told me who he was and that Erica was in recovery and they had a baby girl!! I just thought I'd post cause I'm so excited! I wish I could go to the hospital and see Erica and Emma Grace. But they live in OK. :( I was going to go there this summer but funds are short so I don't get to. But Erica will be in my wedding whenever that comes!! :) I'm EXCITED!!!

Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!
2 Corinthians 9:15

Tomorrow...

Tomorrow is going to be a hard day...Tomorrow will be my last day in the 4 and 5 year old class...In some ways I am so happy about this...But in some I'm not. Today was one of the little girl's (I was seriously attached to) last day. Her parents are pulling her out and she'll be going to summer camp. I cried when she left. I'll see her on Sunday when we have graduation (which I'm worried about) but I will miss her smiles and attitude so much. Just the other day she said Ms. Kasey I love you all the way to Jesus...It made me feel so good. And I know I'm just another teacher but this isn't just any little girl. I sit here right now just crying because I'm going to miss her and so many others from this class. Tomorrow we have 3 other children who it will be their last day. I'm close to all of them too and will cry tomorrow too. Sunday we are having their graduation at 3pm. I know I will survive all of this but my heart is just hurting from knowing these kids are going to be gone. I am so use to seeing them five days a week. Okay...Enough of my crying.

Jamie's grandpa is getting married on June 30th. Jamie and I will be flying down there to go to the wedding. We'll be leaving on June 30th at 9am and coming back on Saturday, July 1st at 6pm. I have never flown before so I am very excited and very scared at the same time. But Jamie is the person I'd want to do it with. Gosh I love him!

Well, I need to get off of here...Thanks for reading!

Devote youreselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.
Colossians 4:2 (NIV)

What a goober...

Yes...I am the goober. The last post I didn't add a verse because it was so long and I forgot...So here are two verses for ya! :)

I sing to the Lord because he has taken care of me.
Psalm13:6 (NCV)

Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
Mark 16:16 (NIV)

And one extra for thought...hehe...

"I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener."
John 15:1 (NIV)

Trisha's B-day!! (long post)

Sorry I haven't wrote in so long...It's been almost a month. Maybe I should wait until tomorrow that way it will be a whole month. Nah...hehe...

So, school is out and I made...STRAIGHT A's!!! I signed up to do my co-op and the work seminar class that I have to do this summer. Should be easy. I mean all I'm really doing is paying Mitchell to let me go to work, which is CRAZY! But oh well, gotta do it to get my degree. I also signed up for four classes this fall at Mitchell. But CVCC may be offerening one of them on the internet so I may be doing an internet class. And if I go up there and find out one of my other classes is offered on the internet I may sign up for that one too. Then I would be taking 5 classes!! WOW, hopefully it will all work out. But if I get both of those classes in then I'll only have 8 more classes till I graduate! (If you don't know I'm going to school to get my degree in Early Childhood Education.) And then if I could take four classes a semester then I would be done in the fall of 2007 and graduate in the spring of 2008. :) That would be great.

Work is good. I found out back at the first of May (well, after I posted last time) that I would be changing rooms. Right now I am in the 4/5 year old room. At first they said I would be moving to the infant room on June 13th. (Graduation for the 4/5's is June 11 and then I'm off on June 12th for Jamie's b-day!!) Anyhow, after that about a week later one of the 1 year old teachers either quit or got fired (who knows). BUT I talked to the director and told her I would like for her to consider putting me in that room cause I loved the one's when I was with them before. She said she would talk to her assistant and that we'd see. Well, she told me a few days later that I would be moving to the one's. I'm very excited about that but also nervous and scared. I'll be working with a girl named Emily and it's not that I think we won't get along but I'm always scared when I start working with someone new. Anyhow, Emily is a few years younger then me so we should have fun.

Church is going good. We've got Vacation Bible School June 11-16. I'm doing kitchen duty with Jamie and mom. I did it last year when mom went to the Ukraine and had fun so I signed up for it again this year.

Jamie is doing great too...He's working a LOT of hours (getting about 40 hours of overtime a week). Which also means he's making more $$. We've talked more about getting married and he even bought me a wedding planning book that I wanted and I love it...I'm trying to not plan so much until I at least get a ring...haha. But I like looking at it all. He is done with school until this fall and I know he is as happy about that as I am. We're spending a lot more time together now that he's out of school and I am too. I'm loving it!!

NOW about the title of this LONG post...Today is Trisha's (my best friend) b-day!! WOOHOO!!
