I am so so so excited to be joining in on Falling Into First's Meet The Teacher Linky Party! I am brand new to the blogging world! I just started a few weeks ago and I am LOVING every minute of this exciting experience! I have meet so many nice and creative fellow teachers through my blog, FB, and TpT!!!! When I saw this Linky Party, I thought{Oh! Oh! Me Me!} I need to be a part of this! Being new to the blogging world I knew there was no better way to introduce myself then to link up! So here I go....
My name is Kristen Quigley and I have been teaching for 5 years. I have moved around a lot and taught every thing from preschool to third grade in private and public schools. This year I landed my Dream Job! I will be teaching Kindergarten in a public school system, very close by to where I live. No more hours of commuting far for work! YAY!!! I am so thrilled to be in my new school district! IT is an amazing place and I could not be more excited to start! I am spending all summer preparing for the start of a fabulous new year!
This is a picture of me and my wonderful husband, Mike. We will be married 1 year on September 21st! I can not believe it has already been a year! It went by so quickly. Our wedding was a real fairy tale. Just thinking about it makes me smile. Mike is the reason I landed my dream job! He pushed me to take a risk and leave my public preschool job that was over an hour away for a maternity leave position the was MUCH closer to our house. VERY RISKY and I worried the whole time that I would end up jobless! But it paid off because they hired me for a full time, contracted position starting this Fall!
This is our dog Dexter. He is just the cutest thing ever! I get to spend my summer off with this guy! He has so much energy and always keeps us busy. I spend most of my summer days at my parents pool where he loves to play in his sprinkler and I blog! :)
