Spring Break...it's almost over!

WOW....I didn't intend on taking a blogging break. Leading up to Spring Break, it has been SUPER busy at work. The Thursday before break we always have Open House at school. It's a time for the kids to show off all of their hard work. In order to prepare I hang up a few pieces they have worked on and then the rest goes in these pillowcases. Each gets to stamp their hand on everyone's pillowcases....so that's 20 hands on 20 pillowcases. It takes ALOT of time and patience. They are absolutely precious and such a wonderful keepsake for the kids.

A few pillowcases lined up in my classroom.

This is just one of the displays in my classroom for Open House. The kids wrote a story about if they were 100 years old. Let me tell you they were hysterical! Their portraits are just as funny.

"If I Were 100 Years Old..."

This week I have been resting and catching up on some chores around the house. I've been cleaning the carpet in each room as well as organizing a few rooms. It absolutely drives Jeremy crazy...he's always ready for me to go back to work. I took a break from cleaning to go on a mini girls trip and then went to Tulsa to visit my family.

While in Tulsa we always have to visit some of our favorite restaurants that we don't have in Dallas. One of our favorite pizza joints is Mazzio, it reminds us of our childhood. It was so nice to visit some of our family and just relax. Tonight we're hanging our two sweet little dogs.
