Good Morning Students and Parents!!

I have really enjoyed spending time in the classroom the past few days and can't wait to get started in the classroom after Thanksgiving! 

Just a few fun facts about me;

1.  I was born in Georgia and moved to Michigan 11 years ago and STILL have not acclimated to the cold weather.
2.  I went to Western Michigan University--GO BRONCOS!
3.  I have two dogs at home; a Rottweiler puppy named Lucy and a Jack Russell/Chihuahua named Maxxie.
4.  I recently joined a bowling league and scored a Turkey on my first night!
5.  I absolutely love to cook...maybe in the future I can bring in some yummy treats for the class. 

**I will do my best to make a post every week.  Students IF you come to Miss Hulsts or myself defining the word that I have underlined, you will receive a Big Buck!!!
