Mrs. Holmes

My name is Cori Holmes and I have been lucky enough to teach 5th
grade at Sweet Apple for seven years now. My own children are grown, so I feel very fortunate that I still get to have young
people in my daily life. 2011 was a big year for me. My first grandchild, Ainsley, was born in June, my son was married in August and my daughter was married in September. In my
spare time, I enjoy traveling with my husband, working in my
garden and playing with our two Wheaten Terriers, Suzy Q and
Barby Q. Most of all, I'm in heaven whenever I get to sit
on any beach and read a good book!

Son-in-law, Mike, daughter, Beth holding Ainsley; Daughter Whitney with future son-in-law, Jake; My husband, Jay and me; future daughter-in-law, Jenni with my son, John. John and Beth live in Chicago and Whitney is in Knoxville, so it is always a treat to have all of us together.

She was born June 23rd. Isn't she beautiful?
