Wow....It is hard to believe that it is 2010!! There are so many things I am thankful for in 2009 but I am ready and looking forward to what 2010 has in store for me! I cannot believe that Kyle and I have been married for a little over 6 months....it seems like yesterday that we got married!That was the happiest day of my life thus far! I am so happy and excited about what 2010 holds for our relationship....it can only get better!!

Here are some pictures from new year's night:

Let's begin 2010 with a bang!

What a year!!

I cannot believe that 2009 is coming to an end! This year has flown by! When I think about all the things that I have been blessed with, I cannot stop smiling! Kyle and I are happily married and having so much fun spending our lives together! I am looking forward to what 2010 has to offer!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Catching up

It's been so long, I know....BUSY, BUSY, BUSY!!!

Football and cheerleading have ended so now I have more time at home, which is nice. Kyle is coaching middle school basketball but that is not bad we have more time together than during football. So, here are some things that have been happening around here....

Halloween 2009 - I was a cheerleader and Kyle was the Unibomber

The Guys

Kyle's cousin, Jamie got married - Rehearsal dinner

After Jamie and Amy's beautiful wedding

Then, we hosted our first Thanksgiving as husband and wife at our house. My mother and father-in-law, my brother-in-law and sister-in-law, neice, nephew, and mom and dad all came over Thanksgiving Day to celebrate with us. We actually had family with us all week. It was wonderful! We were exhausted they left but had a great time while they were here. We also put up our Christmas tree and ordered our Christmas cards (which were sent out today).

Our Family :)

On our way to dinner and a great night with great friends!

So, that is what we have been up to lately. I will try to do better to keep this updated. We are looking forward to our first Christmas as Mr & Mrs Kyle Gourley!! :)

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!
