Labor Day in Aspen!

I had a difficult week last week. Not only was it busy and I was overtired, but I felt like I was just sucking at teaching. That was really upsetting considering that I've always felt really confident and quite happy with my career. In some respects, I feel like I'm back at first year. I know it's because of all of the newness and I'll groove into a routine soon, but it was an uncomfortable week. Friday ended up to be a good day at school and with my kids, which was a nice way to leave the week and enter a weekend in Aspen! I spent some time with my aunt, uncle, and cousin in the mountains...we had a blast!

at the top of Aspen Mountain...the archway I'm under was made for a wedding...

I hope everyone had a relaxing and safe holiday weekend! Think positive thoughts for a good week at school for me!
