It's real. We moved in!

I especially love our kitchen & baking yummy Pinterest goodies!

The fiance and I drove to St. Joseph to pick up our new family member!
We are pleased to welcome this little Schnoodle (Schnauzer + Poodle Mix) to our new home.

Meet Miss LOLA :) 

Lola Bear :)

 She didn't know what to think of the silly Scooby-Doo slippers!

 Playing with daddy.  (Steps were scary!)

 One pooped pup!

Can you tell I'm a little obsessed?  I love my baby girl ♥

May 29th 2013

The students LAST day of school. I had to say goodbye to an amazing group of second graders.  They were an absolute joy to work with and I will cherish the memories we had in our classroom forever. 

I got this cute gift from a kiddo (no doubt her mom checked out Pinterest for this creation!) 

It is jam packed with tasty spices for our new home!

May 30th 2013

LAST DAY for teachers!  My first year of teaching is officially over! 

Where did time go? It all happened SO fast.

 Hero Unit: The students picked a hero of their choice, decorated their hero and wrote three reasons on the back.  

It's things like this that make me smile.  I can honestly say that I LOVE my job and making a difference in my students' lives

My final comps presentation for graduate school! It's f.i.n.a.l.l.y. over!

June 7th 2013

Lola started puppy class! She had a blast and let me tell you, was quite the charmer.  All the male pups were drawn to her!  She is going to be a little handful! ;)

5 more weeks of classes left!
