Crafts and cute buys

I survived my last day of summer school yesterday! The kids did an awesome job at our end of summer school show. They were all community helpers and recited poems about each helper that we learned. It was super cute and I was so proud of them!

 It feels great to have the rest of the summer off but there's still so much left to do. I finally started some of my crafting that I've been putting off. I made these scrabble coasters for my boyfriend (addicted to words with friends) and I'm looking forward to him getting here tonight so I can give them to him. :)



I also made a trip to target and went a little crazy with the dollar deals. I couldn't help myself, they had all these cute star name tags and stickers. We call our students the sparkling stars so all of these cute star tags go great with our theme. I also bought some crates so that I can work on my next pinterest project (crate seats).


 I'm heading to Vermont on Sunday to spend most of the week with my wonderful sister and god son Oliver. Oh yea and my brother in law too. I'm super excited and already have her birthday gift basket made. I got her a magazine subscription, two Alex and Ani bracelets (one that says sister and another pretty bead one), a Starbucks gift card with mug, and a really cute wine glass (mommy's sippy cup). It came out really cute and I hope she likes it.

 I can't help but post the picture of this cute little pup. She is all snuggled up beside me as I have been writing this. How can you not love her!

Well my wonderful boyfriend is here so I must go. I'm off to watch the Olympics opening ceremony. :)

Tell me more, Tell me more!





Amy Lemons at Step into 2nd Grade with Mrs. Lemons is having a linky party and I figured it would be a great opportunity to try out a linky party and tell everyone a little about me.
 
 
1. I love the beach and everything summer! Living in New England with our cold winters I can't wait for the summer to come. It's just such a fun time of year with cookouts, beach days, and camping fun!



2. I  can't wait to have kids of my own but right now by baby is my dog Sammy. She is half pug half beagle and I love her to pieces! She keeps me on my toes with her mischievous ways. We love to go for long walks together.  


3. My family and friends are very important to me. My family is super close, we get together for all of our cousins birthday and for all the holidays. My sister had a baby last year (Oliver) and she gave me the honor of being his god mother. She is the first of the three of us to have a child. I can't even tell you how much I love that little guy.  I love all of them and I'm very blessed to have them all in my life.



(Love him to pieces!)

4. I'm from Massachusetts so I'm a huge Boston fan. I love going to the Sox games with my boyfriend (sweetest guy ever) or a big group of friends. Jacoby Ellsbury is my absolute favorite player.



5. I love to read mostly mysteries but lately I've been reading more young adult books like The Hunger Games.  I recently got into the Divergent series which if you like The Hunger Games you'll definitely like this series as well.

6. I have wanted to be a teacher since I was very young. My aunt was a first grade teacher and I have great memories of going to visit her classroom. When doing a unit about Native Americans she had this really awesome teepee set up and I remember thinking how cool a teacher she was.

7. I could not live without music. There are songs that I can listen to and it can instantly bring back a memory. I love to go to music festivals and discover knew artists. Some of my favorites are Dave Matthews Band, Vampire Weekend, Ray Lamontagne, Ryan Montbleau Band, Coldplay, Brad Paisley, Toby Keith, Grace Potter, Jack Johnson, Amos Lee, and many more.


8. I have been really fortunate that I have been able to travel to throughout the world. My mom has been one of my travel partners throughout Italy, Greece, Turkey, and France. I love to see new places and hope to keep exploring the world.

I will stop rambling on about myself now but I hope I gave you a little peek into who I am and hopefully I am able to link this back correctly.

Finally!

After months of blog stalking, I have finally got around to writing my first blog post. I'm  new to the blogging world and have lots to learn so please bare with me here. I have lots to learn!

A little about me...I have been a kindergarten teacher in Massachusetts for six years and I absolutely love it! My first year teaching inclusion was last year and I was lucky to have the best co-teacher and I'm hoping we'll get to be together again this year.

I've had the pleasure to work with and learn from a great group of ladies and i'm looking forward to learning more from all of you!
