Friday Five!

I can't believe I've been out of school for a month already! It is really flying by! Here's hoping the next month with slow down to a crawl! :)

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






1.   I've been spending more time with my embroidery machine this summer!  I wish I had more time for hobbies when school is in session.




2.  We had some storms recently with hail!  After they passed, the sky looked very beautiful!




3.  I've been using the Couch to 5K program and just finished Week 4!  I usually use the treadmill or the roads in my neighborhood, but I decided to try using the high school track one day.  Not the best idea, because the track was harder than both the treadmill and the road (with hills)!  I think I'm just a strange person, because I would have imagined the track to be super easy!




4.  My dog had to go to the vet this week to get ready for boarding while we go to the beach... he was not cooperative and had to get the Hannibal Lecter mask!



5.  And no summer is complete without spending time making centers for the upcoming school year!

Ten Pin Linky Party!

I'm linking up with Just Reed for a Ten Pin Linky Party! This week's theme is Classroom Decor!



1. I have a polka dot theme in my classroom, and I've been wanting to do this to my boring plastic storage containers for a while now!



2. I LOVE the idea of chair pockets... more of an organizational tool, but cute pockets like these really add to the classroom decor!



3. I adore little birdies... if I didn't have the polka dot theme, I might have a birdie theme because they're so fun and cute! I love this door decor!



4. I love this idea for hanging table numbers... paper lanterns!



5. I love this reading nook! The colors and the organization are great!



6. Here's a wonderful idea for making over those ugly file cabinets!



7. These crate seats have been all over Pintrest for a while... the polka dot ones would be perfect in my classroom!



8. How fun is this?



9. This is a simple but cute and functional idea for colored pencils, markers, or crayons.



10. I have been meaning to make one of these for my classroom to keep all of my supplies organized.

Five for Friday...

I'm loving summer vacation!  This is the end of my third week... it's flying by!  Only 22 more days until we leave for the beach!

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





1.  Fruit in the summer is the best!



2.  With healthier eating habits has to come some exercise!  I'm hoping to run a 5K in the fall... well, very slowly jog a 5K.  So, today I finished Week 2 of Couch to 5K and I haven't died yet! :)  I am really, really slow, though.



3.  Lots of time at home during the summer sometimes leads to a little boredom (not complaining!)... and the dog gets a new hat.



4.  Speaking of pets... no one better mess with this one!



5.  And jamming in the car is my favorite thing lately!






Gearing Up for Back to School!

Wow, this summer has flown by!  I can't believe I only have 2 weeks left before I report back for pre-planning!  As the summer comes t...
