Class of 2020 -- Blog #10 -- Summertime!

Well, eighth graders, our time together is just about over!  I have certainly enjoyed getting to know all of you better this year, and overall, I think we've had an awesome year!  I look forward to hearing great things about all of you, as you begin your high school careers!

Summer is my favorite time of year!  I love the long lazy days of summer.  Sleeping in is always a perk too!  For my family, summertime is SWEET -- literally!  We love spending time at the lake, or just hanging out together!  It is a time of year when the regular routine seems a little less crazy, and a little more relaxed.



June is always fun with CMA Fest, and we have a blast.  We enjoy country music,  especially when our son, Conner, is on the stage!


July means a family reunion with our extended family in North Carolina.  We share  a lot of laughs and hugs from family members we don't see too often.  (And we get a little competitive on the go-carts!)


We also usually go on a vacation, and this year, we are planning to head to the beach in late July!  That is my favorite place is the world, and I am looking forward to it.


What are your plans for summer?  In the final blog of the year, please respond to this question.  Please answer in three complete questions for three extra credit points.  This blog will close at midnight on Tuesday, 5/17.  Write on!

  18. My summer plans are exquisite. First, my family and I are going to New York City. A couple of weeks after that we are going to camp meeting. Then, Miles and I are going to a summer camp called ICC. Finally, Mikes and I are going down to Alabama to help my grandparent's reprint their house after it was burned in the summer. That is my summer.

  31. This summer I only have two things planned so far. The first thing will be varsity cheer camp. This year we go too Auburn. This is my first year of being a varsity cheerleader so I'm really excited. My second thing planned is to go to Myrtle beach for 8 days. We go down there July 1st-8th, and July 3rd is my birthday. So while we are in myrtle beach I will be celebrating my birthday and I couldn't be more happy! This summer will be a great one and I can't wait to start school again and be a freshman in high school.
