Abstract Sponge Bob :)

Today was a WONDERFUL first day back to school :) I enjoyed listening and reading all of the creative activities my kiddos encountered over the break: Great Wolf Lodge, watching Tron, ice skating, etc. They were all so excited to tell me about the presents they received: slinkies, Yoyos, Big Foot, pillow (?) pets, drums, transformers, Spongebob etc. Below is one of the "writings" I received during writer's workshop :) He put so much detail into his illustration and it was AWESOME!!!! He called it "Spongebob Faces"  :) I LOVE IT!!! 


Tomorrow is my baby brother's 20th Birthday... WOW!!!
 Happy Birthday Coleton Dean!!! LOVE YOU!!! <3
Time is flying by so fast!!!

Back to School :)


A year ago tonight, I was about to start my first day as a Kindergarten teacher :)
I was feeling SO many emotions at one time!   
 I have been given so many blessings in my life.
This was one of the first photos I took after working over the break last winter! I have definitely changed up my classroom ALOT. Which I think I seem to enjoy changing it ALL of the time. My kiddos definitely get surprises often.. even tomorrow!  

I hope everyone has a FANTASTIC day! 

I am ecstatic about seeing my kiddos tomorrow!!! YAY!!!
