I’m not a blogger…

I enjoy writing.  I love taking pictures.  But blogging?  Not really my thing… Or so I thought.  I’ve been toying with the idea of starting a blog since moving to Bristol Bay last fall as a way to document my adventures as a first year teacher/mom in rural Alaska.  Well, like most things in my life I did it a little backwards and am now venturing into the world of blogging at the END of my first year teaching in rural Alaska.  Such is life.

I read once that writing your first blog post is much like going on a first date (thank you Hungry Runner Girl <3).  It’s awkward.  It’s intimidating.  But it also has the potential to be ridiculously fun and exciting.  So here we go!  I hope to fill this blog with adventure (in Bristol Bay and beyond!), mother/daughter moments, teacher tidbits, and running/race recaps.  After all, those are the things that make me- ME!

Hope you enjoy!
