My Story Through Pictures

I'm in my final year of college!!!! Hooray! My journey through school has not been an easy one, or a "quick" one either. It's been full of setbacks and struggles. However, I've grown so much from this experience.

I'm finished with all of my Elementary Education Levels. (Except student teaching.) This semester I'm taking support courses that must be completed before I begin student teaching in the spring. One of my classes is an instructional technology class. So far I LOVE it! I'm learning so much about different programs and software that will truly benefit my lessons. One program I just love is Animoto. It's a movie making program that is so fun and so user friendly. I made this video for my class and I'm just dying to share it with you all.

The instructions were to collect pictures of yourself, and also make some "wordles" to include in the video. So, when you see the subway art and wordles just remember they were required ;)

This video tells my story through pictures. It starts with pictures of my young-single adult life, then tells the story of mine and Brian's first few years of marriage; before the birth the Lydia till now. I remember when we were first married everyone told us how much fun married life was, and that you just have to get through the first year. Well our first year of marriage was amazing! It wasn't all rainbows and butterflies all the time. (Being poor college students is never easy.) But we worked through the struggles together. I just have to say even though we were so poor it was still SO much fun! How can life not be when you're married to your best friend?

Now, almost 3 years later we've been blessed with our beautiful daughter Lydia, and life just keeps getting better and better. I thought this video is an accurate depiction of our lives so far.


It's been brought to my attention that some of you haven't been able to see the video below, so click HERE and it will take you to YouTube. Thanks!

Enjoy!
