The air conditioning was working today and we were back to wearing sweaters in the room again. Our building only has two temperatures---freezing and boiling. LOL! Trust me, the freezing temperature is much better then the boiling.

Thank you all for the nice emails about our class postcard project! You guys are the best! I can't wait for them to start arriving!

It's bedtime for me now. Enjoy your day and remember to look for me at digifree!

It's time to beg again!

Today brought my 22nd kindergarten student and a building with no air conditioning. Needless to say, I'm really glad that today is over! Hopefully tomorrow will be a calmer, cooler day.

It's time for me to send out my annual plea for postcards from your hometown and/or vacation spots. We use these in class to learn about other places and compare them to where we live. I've done this project for a few years now and it is always such a big hit with the kids in my class. There is nothing they love more then receiving
these postcards from far away and not so far away places.

My school isn't really in the inner city, but it isn't in the best of neighborhoods either. Most of the kids in my class have never traveled anywhere other then to the houses right on their street. Many of them don't even go to the beach and we live in Miami! Your postcards open up the world to them and gets them thinking about places they would like to visit or even live someday.

We will be collecting these all year so if you can't send us one right now it's Ok. We'll be happy any time they arrive! Here's our address if you can help us out...

Ms. Brown's Class
Greynolds Park Elementary
1536 N.E. 179th Street
North Miami Beach, FL 33162


I've got a second part to my request this year. Will you please make a post about our project on your blog? You can either put the address on your blog or send your readers here to get it.

If you make a post on your blog, please come back here and leave a comment with the link and on Friday I will pick someone to win a $5.00 gift certificate to the store at Stuff to Scrap.

I'll keep you updated on how many postcards we receive!

I'll be back later to post my part of the STS September Blog Train!

Wood N Plaid

Oh man, has this weekend ever flown by. I didn't get nearly enough done, but I did get lots and lots of sleep. I'm heading back to bed again soon. LOL!

I told you that april has been busy this month and she's still working agay. She sent me a picture of something she drew today and it is going to be cute! I can't wait to see the kit she puts together!

In the mean time, here's a preview of her kit called Wood N Plaid. This is a fun kit that's perfect for some of the handy man pictures you've got laying around.



I used the kit to make a QP for you. The download link is below the picture.

I've got to get some sleep now. It's Independence Day at school which means the kids are coming into the building without their parents. I hope their parents can take it! LOL!

If I can make it to Friday, it's a three day weekend! Enjoy your day and look for me at digifree

Another Sandy Beaches QP

Download wordart here

Have you ever had one of those days where everything you do takes twice as long as it should? Well, that's how my day went. I didn't get half of the things done that I needed to because I just couldn't concentrate. Oh well, everything left undone will still be there tomorrow. LOL!

I was out running errands today and I actually met up with some friends that I hadn't seen in years. They're in town on vacation so we had lunch together and got caught up on things. I'm jealous that they're on vacation and I'm not!

I have another QP for you that I made using April's Sandy Beaches Kit. By the way, have I told you that I love this kit? Well, I do! LOL! The download link is under the picture.

I'm going to go catch a little bit of Big Brother After Dark before I go to bed. Enjoy your day and look for me on Digifree

Well, I'm up bright and early today, but that's OK since I've got so much to get done. I wanted to stop by and tell you about a bright, cheerful kit from Manda's Scrappin' Creations called Bright Star. This is a beautiful kit that is perfect for scrapping pictures of the little star in your life. I plan on uising it with lots of pictures of my class this year. Check out this preview...



With this kit you get 43 elements and 12 papers. The best part is that it's on sale for only $2.00 at Stuff to Scrap!

OK, I've got to go shower and get ready to start my day.

Sandy Beaches

Ok, I am officially a wimp! I went tout for dinner and drinks with my friends and was so tired I had to call it a night and come home early. I've already napped and am ready to go back to bed for the night. LOL! Man, this week really kicked my butt!

I do have the QP that I promised you earlier. I made this one with April's new kit called Sandy Beaches. I love this kit! Just look at this preview...



You can get the kit in April's store at Scrap it Sassy and the link for the QP is below the picture.

I've got plans to sleep most of this weekend, but in between sleeping I need to make 40 candy bars for a baby shower and do some things for school. I'm going to bed now. Enjoy your day and make sure you look for me on Digifree!
