Favorite Pins Friday!

I am so excited to be linking up with the fabulous Cara from The First Grade Parade for her Favorite Pins Friday!

I am OBSESSED with Pinterest and if you are constantly pinning like me, you need to link up!

1.  I'm loving these adorable idea for beginning of the year.  It's a cute treat bag to give your favorite teachers, or just all of them. =)  Who doesn't need extra of these.  I got this idea from a sweet blogger Dream Girl Lisa, who has some great ideas and cute crafts!

2.  I love this next pin.  I got this from Chicka Bug and it's such a great idea for the class.  

I don't know about you, but when we have a birthday party, I am always scrambling around and looking for forks and spoons for the cupcakes.  This would be great to set up at the beginning of the year and keep refilling it as you go.  I love the bright colors too!

3.  This next pin is one of my faves and can't wait to get started!  I have been obsessed lately with chalkboard EVERYTHING!  So when I saw this, I knew I had to make one as well.  This pin comes from the very creative Second Grade Nest.  It's so easy to make and after reading the post, I have all of the things needed for it!  Can't wait 

I was thinking of putting the Spelling/Vocabulary words for the week on the board since I am trying to have some more space on the bulletin boards for visuals. =)

4.  Non school related!  Our engagement party is July 20th and we are trying to get things done for it.  One of my favorite things that I ordered was originally taken from a pin!  I got SWEET idea from Mutludukkan.  I ordered them from someone I know who bakes.  Can't wait to see how they look. So cute!

5.  This last pin is also something I plan to make for our engagement party.  It seems easy and cheap enough too with a lot of elegance! 

This would be great for centerpieces.  Don't you love?

Can't wait to get started on all of my pins!!  

What do you have on your Pin-List 2 do?

End of Year is Finally Here!

End of year is finally here!  I couldn't be more excited for summer.  Of course I will miss my little ones but there's nothing like a long long nap!  Of course I have been busy with life!  I've never been this busy in so long, but I love it!  

Tomorrow is the last day of school and this is what I made my little ones.

I made these last year for my students as well and they were such a hit so I had to make again.  It's so cheap too!  

What you need:

Large marshmallows - $2.99 

Graham crackers - $3 

Hersheys - $2 for a pack of 12

Bags - $1 for 20 

Eazy Peazy! 

Since I am done with school, I have more time to plan our wedding!  We recently got the photo, dj and video so now we feel more relaxed and can move slower.  Right now we are debating what to do for save the dates.  We are both teachers so I recently found this on Pinterest but I think it might be too cheesy, what do you think?

Before we send out these, we have an engagement party that's in less than a month!  Wow how time flies.   I had a brunch yesterday with my bridesmaids and discussed party ideas.  They worked on something similar to this, also found on Pinterest

I will blog about mine when they are done.  I think it's such a cute and different idea.   This fabulous idea is from Style Me Pretty .  Love her blog!  

So now that finally school will be over, I can finally finish my Apple Unit I have honestly been working on for a month.  My gosh I have been busy.  

Can't wait for you to see it.  =)

Happy Monday.


I am linking up with 4th Grade Frolics for Monday Made It!

Busy Bee!

I can't believe I haven't blogged in a week!  I don't believe I have been gone for this long.

I knew there was something missing in my life this week!!

I have ben such a busy bee, hence the title of this blog.  We have been going to end of year parties, booking dj's, photo and videography for our wedding, birthdays and more.  I couldn't catch a break!  I am pooped.  

But I am here to show you what I have been up to with the kiddies and my life!!

This is at the end of year party with my love and my teacher aide. She's like my 2nd mommy. Love her!

This is my awesome sister in law (future) at the Yankee game.  

Love her!

The Yankees won that game of course!

My beautiful friends at a birthday party at a casino.

Finally we got our Father's Day Trophies complete!  The kiddies loved them.

Of course our copy machine didn't have white paper again, only purple!

I have been using a lot of these lately.  My little ones have gotten a bit chatty since they are aware school is almost out.  So I have been putting this to use.

It's a Parent Communication Log I got at Lakeshore.  It's a great tool to use to let parents know what's going on in the classroom with great news or not so good news.  It comes with the original copy and another copy for you to keep for reference.  

So as you can see I have been busy!

But of course not to busy to keep creating.  I have been working my little tush on this awesome Apple Unit for the Fall.  It's almost complete so keep a look out!  It's full with centers, printables and crafts that I am sure you will love.

I leave you with this super funny comment one of my little ones said to my aide and I on Friday morning.  Every time I think about him saying this I can't stop laughing!

Student: Ms. C, Ms. C! I have great news and bad news.

Me: Okay honey, tell me the bad news first.

Student:  Okay.  Well it's going to rain on Sunday.

Me: Laughing already.  Oh no!  What's the great news?

Student:  I'm going to the beach on Sunday! 

These kids are too much!

What have you been up to lately?  

I'm linking up with Doodle Bugs for Five for Friday!  

It's Friday right? 

LoL  

Can't forget to honor my daddy!

Happy Father's Day!

My amazing daddy and I last year on Father's Day!

He taught me everything I know and much more! From school, to coaching to life and money. Can't say enough great things about him.

Forever daddy's girl. =)
