June 2019



Jordyn and I went and got paint for her room, she wanted to paint it white. When she went to get the can of paint out of the car, it felt out onto the driveway and left a huge mess!  We frantically tried to wash it up, but our efforts were a little futile haha






Parker and Peyton (aka PMAX) - cutie pies!




I had two students graduate this year.  The first is Sara.  She has retinitis pigmentosa, which means her vision will continue to decrease as she gets older.  I really loved my time with her!




Chloee's 8th grade graduation party


a little lunch outing with my mom and Kristy



My department took the seniors and a few other students to lunch and to the Valley Center for the Blind for a tour.  My co-workers here are: Patricia, Kathleen, Steve, Debbie, Nayely and Julie



My other student who graduated is Laura.  She has been totally blind since birth.  She's a crack up!


My sweet babies, on their last day of school!  Lexi 15, Peyton 12 and Jordyn 17


My last day of work for the school year!

Some behind the scenes photos of the recital preparation - long, hot work!



They put together a sweet surprise for Hannah before recital.  Four years ago, these five girls (Jordyn, Chloee, Peyton, Lexi and Presley) did a beautiful dance called "Just to See You Again". This summer, they re-created it again for her.  It was very emotional and beautiful, especially to see them as stronger and more mature dancers.


The group that was there that night.






And then it was recital time. I love this picture of Lexi in her solo Amen.


This is what the dressing rooms look like!
