CRAZY TIME

Fall is such a crazy time of year for me.....school, cheerleading, football....and I added to that by becoming a coach's wife which involves even more time!!! But I love it all!! I am counting down the days until cheerleading is over....4 weeks!! I love cheerleading and it has always been a big part of my life...but I am done! I cannot take the stress anymore and Kyle is having to put up with me being ill a lot because I am mad at the girls and can't take it out on them because technically, they are children!! Anyway, here are some pictures from the beginning of fall!

I love fall and everything that comes with the season, but I am so ready for football and cheerleading to be over so that Kyle and I can have some more time together... I miss him!!

Hope everyone is enjoying their fall!!

I know it has been a while....but I will have to update all the activities of our busy lives later. Right now I just need to vent!

Why is it, that some people work so hard for things and want something so bad while others could care less??? Most of you know that I am the cheerleading coach at the high school in the county I teach in. We have our first competition this Saturday (which for the record....we are not ready for) and out of 20 girls, I had 15 there and 3 left early today! If they want to win a competition then they have to come to practice. I am coaching this sport because I love it and I think that the squad has the potential to win but I honestly believe that they don't care. I am so tired of sitting at practice and saying the same things over and over again and it not sinking in! I am going to keep putting my all into every preactice, game, and competition and then I am done! I don't deserve to sit at home, school, etc and think and stress about this! I should be able to come home and relax at night but I can't because I care too much and want them to succeed.

Everyone have a wonderful week! Hopefully, mine will get better!

I know you are thinking..."Courtney posted twice in one week...what is going on!!!"

I am sitting here at home thinking about what I can do to keep from getting the flu. It is spreading in Monticello like wildfire! We have a bunch of kids out at the primary school...not to mention Kyle has kids at the middle school out....and I have 5 cheerleaders that are sick!! Any suggestions on what I can do to keep from getting it?? I have washed my hands for two weeks at least 5 times a day and today I sprayed myself with Lysol. maybe all these things combined will keep me well!

I hope everyone has a great week and stays well! =)

I only have 2 more days of school this week! I think we should have Mondays off every week...I would take Tuesdays off too!

Another week...

It went by as usual...practice 3 days for me and every day for Kyle! But the end was GREAT! We went to Pike County for our football game this week and WON in overtime 28-27!! I was so proud of my girls and the team for the way they cheered and played! The coaches did a great job calling plays that seemed to work for our team! Here are some pictures from the game.

Our run thru - right before the team came running on the field!

Kyle running on the field!! =)

After a great game Friday night, Kyle and I got up and drove to Helen to meet my parents for the long weekend! It was a much needed break and trip! We need to get away and have some time together. We had so much fun...we enjoyed each other's company and enjoyed spending time with my parents, too. Here are a few pictures from the weekend.

Kyle and me on the carriage ride =)

We went to Babyland General Hospital...where Cabbage Patch Kids are born!

We walked through the North Ga Corn Maze....I wouldn't have made it without Kyle!

After the corn maze, we spent the rest of the afternoon playing a game of putt-putt with my parents. Then we went to dinner on the Chattahoochee river, just Kyle and me, while my parents went to a restaurant on the other end of town. We had such a good time. I hope we get to go back again soon....or at least have a weekend together like that again soon. Hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday weekend!

What a weekend!!! =)

Our first football game of the season was Friday night against Social Circle! The boys played hard but we still lost! Iam still proud of the Canes and the Canes Coaching Staff (especially Kyle =) ) ! Hopefully we can do better next week and pull out a win!

Here are a few pictures from the game...didn't get one of me and Kyle...but I will!

Shelby and me!

Kalyn and me!

My brother-in-law, Greg; sister-in-law, Heather; and nephew, Ben; and neice, Ginny Grace; came up for the game and to spend the weekend with us! After the game Friday night, we were all pretty tired so we didn't do much! Saturday morning, we got up and went to Macon to get things for Ben's birthday party. We ate breakfast/lunch at Cracker Barrel (that's where I wanted to eat) and it was so good! Then we ran a few errands in Macon. When we got home, we all took a nap before spending the evening by the pool! Kyle grilled and Greg, Becky, Walt and Kalyn came over! It was a fun night with family and friends! When they left Sunday, Kyle and I were tired, so we took a nap before he had to go to work! I spent Sunday afternoon/evening writing thank you notes!

We had a great weekend! I hope everyone else did too!

Another week

Wow...I cannot believe that school has started back and we are going into our 3rd week! I have a great group of kids and am enjoying every minute of watching them begin to learn! But it has been wearing me out! I have been in bed by 9:30 at the latest each night and asleep by 10! I am old!!

This week was so busy! I had practice (like always) three days and Kyle had practice every day! Thursday and Friday nights, I hung out at the house alone because Kyle went to watch some teams that play in their scrimmage games. It was nice to not have to cook....but it was really quiet in the house (and I missed Kyle). Thursday was just me until Kyle got home (which I was asleep whenhe came in) because Sadie got "fixed" that morning and had to stay at the vet overnight.

Football season has offically started! Our first game is this coming up Friday against Social Circle! Our team is looking good this year and hopefully will get a win like they did in the scrimmage against GMC! I think part of the reason out team looks good is due to the coaching staff =) Anyway, cheerleading is rolling again. We do not have our first competition until October 3 but we are working hard every week to get better! They are doing so good and I am so proud of them! For the first time since I began coaching, I have a group of girls that get along, work well together as a team, and work hard....I think they ALL really want to do well this year! It makes me so happy to see them work as a team and grow as a team! They are beginning to hit stunts and make improvements every day! I'll keep you updated on our progress in football and cheerleading!

We had a wonderful weekend together! We relaxed and watched movies which is not something that we get to do very often because we are normally so busy! It was great to be able to have some Kyle and Courtney time! I love those times!

I hope everyone has a wonderful week!

LONG TIME

I know it has been a long time since I posted, I have been so busy with the wedding, travelling, and school starting back. But I am back now!

Things have been going well. I married the man of my dreams almost 2 months ago and I have never been happier!

This summer, we spent a lot of time travelling....before and after the wedding.

This is at the Hoover Dam (we took a day trip here when we were in Vegas)

This was the second night of our honeymoon in the Bahamas!

Myrtle Beach with Greg, Heather, Ben and Ginny Grace (I am Aunt Courtney now!!)

Lake Lanier for the Reece family reunion!

Now school is back in and we are as busy as ever. I have cheerleading 3 days a week and competitions start in October and he has football every day! We started off our football season on the right foot in our scrimmage game with a 40-7 WIN against GMC! Our home opener is August 28 at historic Rose Bowl Field in Monticello against Social Circle! I hope this is going to be a good season! I am now a coach's wife and the wins and losses affect me more now! I am always going to support Kyle and whatever team he is coaching for because that is what he loves!

I hope everyone had a wonderful summer and those of you whoe are teachers are enjoying your school year! I promise I will update more often!
