Perhaps you remember my post from March 22nd?

I decided I wasn't the only one who needed my bucket filled.

I love our new door display!

I love that the students made their own buckets.

I love that they wanted to help design and decorate the door.

I love their creativity~ garden gnomes and mushrooms~oh, my!

But mostly,

I love that I kept catching them writing encouraging notes to others.

They couldn't wait to check their buckets at the end of the day!

~In Honor of a remarkable lady and Head Coach~

Can't imagine the Lady Vols without her.

Needless to say, I was never one of her athletes.

But I will never, never forget 

the "chat" she had with our sorority my freshman year.

Well done, Coach. Here's to your 38 years.
