Thankful Thursday~~Fall Weather

I don’t have a favorite season {you know me and favorites}, but I do love to have a change.  It’s probably why I love year round school so much.  You get tired of going to school and you get a break, you get tired of being home and you go back.  For me it’s so much better than going to school for such a long time and then having a long summer break.  But I digress… SO I’m loving the change in the weather.  I am thinking of snuggling up with a warm blanket. … [Read more...]

We always go to the pumpkin patch with our family every year.  It’s tons of fun.  Last year, I decided to do these Apple Gords for accessories.  They do take a long, long time to dry but they turn out super cute.

Book Club updates

Is everyone enjoying our selection for September and October??  As a reminder, we are reading: Sarah’s Key by Tatiana DeRosnay This book is very powerful.  It is a story that stays with you.  I used to travel a lot and I would always go to the book store at the airport and get a book to read on my flights.  I picked this one up not knowing much about it and I finished it that trip.  I was so moved by this book.  I came home and immediately loaned it to my … [Read more...]

Funny Finds for Friday–1st graders

I have seen this floating around email land before but it always cracks me up.  So here is to a great weekend!! A 1st grade school teacher had twenty-six students in her class. She presented each child in her classroom the 1st half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you.. While reading, keep in mind that these are first-graders, 6-year-olds, because … [Read more...]
