Father Time
Our little countdown clock is telling me that there’s about 11 days left in the school year. WOW. We definitely haven’t slowed down the learning train in room 135. Infact, we’re just starting our official “time travel” :) We started the week with Father Time…he’s got all the time in the world :) We brainstormed a lot of different words that have to do with time. The red words are ways we measure time…days, hours, minutes, etc. The blue words are different places we can find time displayed…can you believe cell phone was the first word my class suggested?!?! HA!! I know that’s the ONLY way I ... Read More
Happy Mother’s Day!
Happy Mother’s Day!!! I’m pretty much saying this to EVERYONE because as a teacher, we’re ALL mommas…the only difference is that we get to send ours home at the end of the day :) I’m so blessed that God trusted me to raise these two sweet loves… My boys woke me up with a sweet little card and Mr. Spouse surprised me with a little gift card and told me to take the afternoon to myself. I couldn’t say “thank you” fast enough! After church, we celebrated with a pizza lunch and some yogurt and then I headed out for a pedi and some shopping! I didn’t buy anything except groceries, but ohmiword…it was really nice to ... Read More
Synthesis Superhero & A Linky!
Can I just give a quick “Thank you!!!!” to my Houston friends who have emailed me and offered their help?!?! THANK YOU!!!! Quick update {if you’re interested}…put our house on the market around noon{ish} last Thursday and got a FULL.PRICE offer 6 hours later! Say what?!?!?! True! I mean, I knew God was going to take care of us, but I never could’ve guessed it would’ve been like that! Since then, it’s been a whirlwind. We headed down to our new town this past weekend and found ourselves a house. We’re in the process of putting an offer on it, so we’ll see how it goes! I’m faithful that God ... Read More
Gettin' My Sunday On
Happy Sunday, sweet friends! Sorry I was absent last week, but I really appreciate y’all for checking up on me! Everything is great, just completely INSANE right now!!! Let’s back up just a bit so I can catch you up to speed. In a nutshell, last week we found out we’re moving…ahem, RELOCATING…to Houston and we’ve been furiously cleaning our house and getting it ready to put it on the market TOMORROW!!!!!!!! Ohmiword. This has all transpired in a week’s time so to say I’m overwhelmed would be an understatement. Mr. Spouse got a job a little northeast{ish} of Houston and accepted immediately…he’s SO ... Read More
Happy Earth Day!
Happy Earth Day, sweet friends! Have y’all been out planting trees today, or what?! Well…I haven’t, but I did enjoy an afternoon listening to beach-y music outside on the deck. What a perfect day to celebrate our beautiful Earth! Speaking of celebrations, we celebrated Earth Day as a class on Friday. First off, we talked all about the different ways we can work together…and by ourselves…to make a positive impact in our environment. After all, WE’VE got the WHOLE world in our hands! It takes a lot of people doing a lot of little things to make big changes in the world! After we made a little “rough ... Read More
A Quick Share
Alright ladies…and gentlemen {are you out there?!?!}…I’m gonna share a little something real quick because this little momma isn’t feelin’ so hot. BOO. Sore throat…chills…and a bit of a throbbing headache. Don’t ask me why I’m on the computer. My kids have been hard at work this week. They definitely have spring fever, but they’ve been working SO hard! PTL! We made these cute little Compound Cooks this week. They crack me RIGHT.UP. I had the kids make little cookies. Each cookie was labeled with a compound word of their choice. Then we put them on a baking sheet & put them ... Read More

Ummm…how many of y’all were able to take full advantage of Sonic’s ALL DAY Happy Hour today?!?! Me! Me! Me! Actually, one of the sweet girls on our team made a Sonic run for us early this morning and then I got a follow-up drink later on when one of my sweet mom’s surprised me with a drink!! Needless to say, it was a great day! I was a very happy, very CAFFEINATED teacher! What goes better with caffeine than food?!?! Today we were all COOKS! Compound Cooks, that is. {If you can’t tell by now, my mind is ALWAYS on food! HA!} Seriously though. I’ve introduced compound words ... Read More
