Another Cold night

As I type this it is 44 degrees here on Miami Beach. They're saying it may go as low as 39. What is wrong with the weather? This is not south Florida weather!

I managed to get one layout done with some 100 day pictures....

I used Shel Belle Scaps 100 Days of School kit.

We started our day out with the 100 shaped snack and 100 balloons on the floor. At the end of the day there were still 99 balloons on the floor. I do the balloons every year and this is the first time one got busted. The little boy who popped the balloon was so sad. He told me that he didn't pop it---his shoe did. LOL! Having only one balloon pop is still a pretty good record.

Happy 100th Day!

I survived the 100th day of school! It was a very fun and tiring day. A few years ago we all ordered T-shirts from Really Good Stuff that say "My students are 100 days smarter!" and most of us remembered to wear them today. LOL! I always love the reaction from the kids when they realize that we're wearing the same shirts. They never seem to figure out that we planned it that way and we never tell them. I always claim that everyone else just copied me. LOL!

I took lots of pictures today and will share them as soon as I have a chance to do something with them.

I was kind of sad this morning because we only had 98 postcards. I know that's a pretty good number and even if we didn't get 100 we had lots of fun, learned about new places and made some new friends. BUT, then the mail came and brought postcards 99, 100 and 101! The cards that put us over the top were from Utah, Los Angeles and the Spam Museum in Minnesota. We were so excited!

I know that there are more postcards on the way from the messages I've received and we're still excited about receiving them. If we get 77 more cards that will average out to be one postcard for every day of school this year. LOL!

I wanted to share another layout I made with Deanna's portion of the Chocolate Cherry Blog Train. Did you visit all the blogs and pick up the goodies? The designers did an amazing job and were so nice to give us everything they made!



Deanna will be giving away another kit on her blog on February 12th called Music and you are going to love it!

This is another layout I made with Shel's 100 Days of School Kit...


You'll be seeing more of this kit as I scrap today's pictures!

Right now, you can go to Pretty Scrappy and for just $10 pick up a huge charity collab kit that Shel participated in. The money raised from the sell of the kit will go to help people diagnosed with ectodermal dysplasias.

Now I am exhausted so I'm going to bed. Enjoy your day!

Hard it get up today!

Oh man, was it hard getting up for work this morning. Did your team win the Superbowl? I didn't have a favorite team but I do have to admit that I was hoping the Cardinals would win. Gotta pull for the underdog.

Did you like the commercials? There was only one that really had me laughing. Of course, when today's conversation turned to the commercials at school no one else could even remember the one I liked best. LOL! Here it is for you to see...

Now, tell me that's not funny!

The 100th day of school is finally here! Here's a picture of the candy bars and water bottles I made using Shel Belle's 100 Days of School Kit




The candy bars are for the teachers and the water bottles are for the kids.

Now, I am so tired I can think straight so I better get some sleep. Enjoy your day!

Here's hoping for a great game! Enjoy your day!

Almost February

Is anyone else as shocked as I am that January is already coming to an end? This month flew by so quickly.

We had such beautiful days this week but now that the weekend is here it's getting cold and yucky again. That just isn't fair! Why can't we have the pretty days when we aren't stuck at work so that we can enjoy them more?

Today we received beautiful postcards from the Poconos, Utah and the Grand Canyon. The kids have all agreed that they would love to see real mountains someday.

It's been a really long day so I'm going to bed now. Enjoy your day!

I am really sleepy tonight so I'm just making a fast post to give you today's wordart. I know it's kind of mean, but that's the mood I'm in tonight. It's also kind of funny and I'm sort of in that kind of mood too. LOL!

Time for bed. Enjoy your day!
