Kalee is my dear friend that helped me survive my program at BYU. Some of those math classes were so dang hard, but life definitely got easier once Kalee and I found each other. We signed up for one or two or even three (!!!) classes together every semester and did pretty much all our homework together. Wow, I get all stressed just thinking about it! She not only helped me survive, but we survived happily with a lot of fun times to remember. Kalee continues to be one of my dearest friends. I haven't seen her in person for like 3 or 4 years (but I WILL see you this summer, right?), but she ALWAYS remembers my birthday and makes me feel special. I love you and miss you, Kalee!
My other math soulmate (ha!) is my former coworker Adrianne. She and I taught at the same high school together. She seriously was my inspiration to try new things to make my classroom even better. She is such an amazing teacher and her optimism and enthusiasm made her well-liked by all of her students and coworkers. I only ever heard good things about her! Adrianne has lived far away for the past few years, but she and I keep in touch every month or two with our over-the-phone book club we have--we are the only two members. :) I was lucky enough to spend a couple of hours with Adrianne just a week ago after a LONG absence, so here is a recent picture! Thanks for squeezing a visit in, Adrianne!
Happy Pi Day to math lovers everywhere. Go eat some pie to celebrate!

Yes, Happy Pi Day! My sister's and my brother's family totally celebrated yesterday. I should start a tradition too. Maybe we could read Sir Cumberence and the Dragon of Pi by Cindy Neuschwander and make a pie or two. I'll put that on the list of things to remember to do for next year.
Jenny, it was sooooo good to see you. I can't wait to hang out again.
My sister's math teacher told them that if everyone in class brought a pie they wouldn't have homework. I guess it was enough motivation, 'cause they accomplished the task!
I love this and I love you! Math is SO bonding!:) I am glad you liked the card, I thought it was funny!
