Beauty Tuesday: Tacky Sweaters Still in Season

Happy Three Kings tomorrow! / ¡Feliz Tres Reyes mañana!

Since CHRISTmas still is in session, I still

• watch HOLYday movies
• keep the halls decked
• turn on the festive lights
• sport those “ugly sweaters“

Showing HOLYday and school spirit! CHEERS =D

How do you spread the cheer this New Year?

CATch of the New Year: Sweet Annie lights up the room!

Sports Sunday: Cheering on Children

After covering Friday’s elementary school appaerance, I rooted on two of my special kiddos, who specifically invited me to show spirit!

1. First, I supported my *superstar* science student in his basketball playoff game

Point Guard for the *MAVS*

in which he continued to advance toward the championship!

2. Then, I went on to his cousin/my honorary GODdaughter‘s volleyball game

Serves Up!

as Maggie’s proud Madrina!

Manic Monday: Snow Day

CHEERS ~ Here’s to This Time of Year When the HOLYdays Are Near …

Let’s hear it for Sweater Weather!

Therefore, break out those Ugly Tacky Sweaters.

On this Snow Day,

Make sure that you have time to play!

And of course, afterwards, be as cozy as ♪♫cats sleepin’ warm as toast♪♫.

My research is about the influence of college coaches‘ leadership on their student-athletes’ satisfaction, athletic and academic performance. Some of my inspirations include winning basketball coaches Coach K, Pat Summitt, and Phil Jackson. Here’s to Team: Dr. D in Mission: Ph.D.
