My Birth
I was born at 5:33 PM in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. My parents are Kevin & Beth. They were so proud. -
Mitch's Birth
My little brother was born at 7:14 AM in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Same parents, but less proud than they were of their first child. -
First Day of School
I had my first day of kindergarten at St. Jude Elementary in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. My teacher was Mrs. Carney and I had the best cubby location - right next to the door. -
Moved/New School
My parents told me we were moving while we were at a McDonald's Play Place. I cried for an hour. We moved to Atkins and I started third grade at Atkins Elementary. My teacher was Mrs. Markewitz. -
First Day of Middle School
I started 7th grade at Benton Community MS/HS. I met a ton of new kids and was clearly the most popular one there. My awkward stage had officially begun. -
First Day of High School
I stayed in the same school, but moved to a different wing to begin the best four years of my life. Again, I was clearly the coolest person there. -
First High School Basketball Game
Slow as molasses but tough as nails, I was ready to play as a forward for the Lady Bobcats JV Basketball team. -
First Show Choir Performance
I was born to be a star and I finally got to let my talents shine. With that sequined dress and bright red lipstick, I was ready to make the world my stage. -
First High School Softball Game
Bringing the heat on the mound, I played in my first Varsity softball game. Later that season, I got my first start in a game. Don't mess with me - I've got a mean curve. -
High School Graduation
After four grueling years of work, I graduated from Benton Community. Naturally, everyone was bawling during my speech. Everyone was going to miss me so much. -
First Day of College
I enrolled at UNI in their Pre-Nursing program, only to transfer to Kirkwood Community College four months later and later change my major. This was all thanks to my high school boyfriend who I thought was "The One". What an idiot I was. -
First Time Coaching
I got a gig coaching softball at Prairie High School in Cedar Rapids after my first year of college. I loved it so much, I changed my major to education. Now I'm here, with all of you people. -
KCC Graduation
I finished my AA at Kirkwood CC, which is about as exciting as it sounds. I didn't walk at the ceremony because I had better things to do, like literally anything else. -
Start Classes at MMU
I spent three years and thousands of dollars to end up here, with you people. Again, what an idiot I am. -
MMU Graduation
All the work was finally over. I was a super senior, but I made it through. I walked across the stage and I didn't trip, so yay me. -
First Day as a Teacher
It's about as exciting as it sounds. I mean, I'm stuck here with you people for 8 hours a day. -
Engaged!
My boyfriend Jason asked me to marry him. He's alright I guess, so I agreed. -
Married!
My husband, Jason, and I were married on April 21st, 2018. It was a great day, especially because none of you people were there. -
AJ Turley Born
My husband welcomed our first child, Aiden James, on July 12, 2019. He's already better than any of you ever will be. -
Jensen Turley Born
Jensen was born in March 2022. He's also already superior to the rest of you.
