More News! Linking Up for the Weekend Wind Back and Sunday Funday!

 Today I'm trying out a new link-up with Erin at Learning To Be Awesome!



Plus, since these pictures show activities that are fun, I'm also linking up with Deidre -who has a beautiful new blog design -  from A Burst of First for:



Painting

Last week I was on vacation, and the week flew by!  Here are a few pictures about my week:


One of the bloggers I follow recommended checking out an arts and crafts web site:  Darby Smart. 

When you order for the first time you get a $10 off coupon and free shipping.  The above kit cost $10 so I decided I would try it out.  Of course, the kit comes with directions and pictures of what your finished product could look like (see above to the right; the 4 small square that say "love").  I saw 4 small canvases and thought four seasons.  Plus I had some scrapbook pages with dogs, flowers, seasonal pictures,...So far this is what I have.  I'm still working on the finishing touches.  At least I got off the computer for a while which is always positive.



Shopping for my Classroom

Going to Lakeshore Learning is a sure way to spend A LOT of money, but it's so much fun to go there.  I somehow lost my student clocks so I had to replace those (I'm sure to find them now) and purchase some other goodies:






Reading for Fun and Work

I do enjoy reading for fun, but lately I've been reading to figure out how to have an impossible to achieve flat belly.  I also get to read a lot for my RETELL (teaching English to students whose first language is not English).



Going to Fundraisers

This weekend I went to 3 different fundraisers: one for ALS, a spinathon for the Jimmy Fund and a Kentucky Derby themed party for the Wakefield Public Library:




That's my friend, Paula, on the right.

It sure is fun to share my awesome and fun news with you - thanks for visiting!
