Take the choc. frosting and melt it in the micro for about 30sec.

Sunday: Zach was off so we did some housework and went to the mall. We had a great day together just relaxing and not doing much of anything. We did enjoy some sun outside.

I hope you all had a great weekend! I have a question, is there a way to make a blog private? Some of my students are googling my name and finding my blog. (hi mini me..I know you probably read this post ;)

Tomorrow is Dance through the Decades at school and I have something to wear, I am just not sure if I am going to.

Weekend Recap!

Friday:

Friday after school I went home and Zach and I went back to school to pack up my Kindergarten room. This school year I started teaching Kindergarten, then got moved to 5th grade in late September. Next year I am teaching 3rd grade, thus the reason for me getting my stuff out of my kindergarten room. After we packed most the room up we went and watched the night performance of the Seussical play that the 5th graders did. If you remember last week I blogged about doing all the props and backdrop for the set. It was an awesome show. I am so proud of them. I had 10 students in the play.

The main character Horton was a student of mine:

Then I had 2 girls that payed bird girls, 1 girl that was a who, 4 kids that worked backstage &

2 girls that were in chorus

After the play Zach and I went home and rented a movie. We watched Edge of Darkness!

overall it wasn't that bad. It was hard to follow at first but it was ok. Zach loved it.

Saturday:

Saturday morning my gym had Launch. Launch is when the new routines for classes is released. They make a big deal out of this and it is really fun. Stupid me though it was a good idea to take 3, yes 3 classes. First was step at 8:00am, then pump at 9:00am, then combat at 10:00am. They were all very hard but so much fun and i survived.

OK on to the bad news. During step I rolled my foot. I kept going and ignored the pain. I finished all three classes and went on with my day as normal.

After the gym I had a graduation party. A good friend of mine from Kindergarten Kathy's son graduated from High School. He is the same age as my brother and so we joke and say that he is my Georgia brother. Here is a picture of us at the party.

After the graduation party I met Zach for dinner. We went to our favorite restaurant, Longhorn. I am a huge fan of Sangria, and the finally added it to their menu. It was so good!!

Sunday:

OK so here is what I was planning to do on Sunday:

1. clean house
2. laundry
3. go tanning
4. go to the gym
5. go to the grocery store
6. get all lesson plans done

Here is what I did:

1. took a 4 hour nap due to a migraine
2. iced my foot 3 times because i woke up and it was swollen and in pain :(
3. did a little laundry

I know not good. One because I got nothing accomplished and too I have a sore foot! :( Hopefully it will get better fast.

Hope you all had a great weekend! I have 8 days left of school!!! YAYYAY!

Weekend Recap!

I had a great weekend, after a busy 2 weeks at school I needed this weekend to go well!

Friday I had an awful day at school. My kids were so wild and ready for school to be out, it was so frustrating.

Thankfully Zach was off on Friday, and we had date night. First we went to dinner at Chilli's. I know nothing fancy. I was feeling like chips and salsa and quesadillas.

Then we went to the mall and Nordstrom rack of course. I got a cute skirt at Nordstrom rack and these few things from New York and Company (I had a $25 gift card from my birthday and everything was 50% off can't beat that)

I got this dressy tank in black, white and a sparkly peach. They were $10 each

I got this jacket vest blazer in Black as shown! It is super cute! Reg $50 got for $25

After shopping we went over to Jared. I asked Zach why and he said do we need a reason to come here. I said no, he said, I think I can afford to buy you a charm. I have a pandora bracelet. This is the new charm I got:

Then we went and played mini golf at Pirate's Cove!

Saturday I went to this thing called Snellville days. It is a local town and they have a major art/festival in the park. I went with my friend Jess. Then I went to Target to get some necessities and went grocery shopping at Kroger. Check out this week's fresh flowers that are on our table.

sorry the picture is so dark. My camera was being weird.

I love hydrangea's!

I still have some Gerber daisies staying alive from 2 weeks ago!

**Having fresh flowers in the house for a month is #58 on my 101 things to do in 1001 days. I am half way done completing this. Just 2 more weeks of flowers in the house. This may be a new habit. Having flowers brightens the kitchen and my house, I love them!!

Sunday Zach had to work all day so it was "To-Do list day"

I went to the gym, then tanning, then to Sams, and Walmart. I also went to the post office to mail my Flip flops. I participated in a flip flop swap through Kimbery's Korner's blog

I will do a post on the flip flops I bought and shipped to my person when I get mine. I am so excited! I love flip flops!

This was so much fun I was thinking of doing a swap. I was thinking either a summer themed one, or a gift card one, or a beach themed..???? What does everyone think about this idea??

After all my running around I came home and cleaned the house, did laundry, got my lesson plans ready for the week and relaxed!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

I only have 18 days left of school!!! YAY!!!!!
