Greetings friends. I am so excited to bring you this late blog
post because I can! Haha! Yep, I am officially on summer break. I have been out
since 2:30 p.m. Friday afternoon and boy did we hit the ground running. Friday
night my brother in law graduated from West High School. Then, the next day (my
FIRST official day to sleep in) our power went out (because of nearby construction on the highway…ugh!) andthese fools my
kids were in my room at 7:30 a.m. Eek! They wouldn't leave me along. Haha! We wrapped up our weekend Sunday by
celebrating my youngest (yikes!) 13th birthday with a pool party at
my parents’ house. Good times people. Good times.

By Monday I was more than beat but luckily (said with EXTREME sarcasm)
my daughter has driver’s ed. for the ENTIRE month of June and I get to drop off and
pick her up every morning. I’m sooo lucky! Seriously, be jealous. You only wish
that you could give up every morning of this month. Haha! She really needs it
though so it’s worth it. I’m kinda scared to drive with her so this is a MUCH
better alternative.

Today my team and I met to work on our year at a glance for
next year. I’m so excited to have it done! I am in charge of science and social
studies next year, which I am totally pumped about. That also means that I will
be writing more science and social studies lessons. Yay!

Before leaving for the summer, I went ahead and switched out
some of my bulletin boards. I wasn’t going to change my jungle theme because I
love it so much but Carson Dellosa asked if they could send me a few things
from a new theme of theirs (Moose and Friends) and of course I said YES! I LOVE
the colors (turquoise, purple, orange). Here is a sneak peak. I
bought several more things because my boards and quite large. I also go
brighter fabric. I love the turquoise and purple! I plan to add some chevron
print in there too. Stay tuned!! These pics just don't do it justice.
If you are looking for room themes I also have oodles and oodles of them in my store. Here are a few examples. Click here to go to my store.
I haven’t created anything yet (this summer) but I did make these cute place
cards for one of my bestie’s little boy’s first birthday parties this week. Say that ten times fast. Sheesh! Place cards, signs, and water bottle covers oh my!

I plan to start working on the rest of my early finisher’s tubs
tomorrow. My goal is to get the rest of the year made by July. I also want to
work on a few more units for next year. Lots to do in between my job as a human
taxi mom. J Also, we will start our
book study this week. Posts will start on Freebielicious so make sure you
follow there. It’s the yellow brick road!

So, what are you doing right now? Have you had any FUN yet? I
took my kids to see Epic and we liked it. Grace (16) said it was a little slow.
I jumped on a few parts. Yes, I am a big ole weenie! I’m totally excited about
the movies coming out this summer…kids and
adult. I’m taking the kids bowling tomorrow. Did you know that kids can bowl
two games free every day this summer before 8 pm (I think that is correct, don’t
quote me) at certain lanes? You can go here for more details. https://freebowling.amf.com/

I'm in a bit of limbo, educationally speaking, and fighting procrastination! But I am loving the absent alarm clock!
Excited to see your Early Finishers tubs!
