Dr. Seuss' Birthday

As you may know Dr. Seuss' birthday was March 2. Addi and I celebrated. We painted our toes in Dr. Seuss colors.






We also had a Dr. Seuss dessert: strawberries and bananas.

Pinterest Party

I hosted a Pinterest Party this past December with some of my teacher friends. We had a blast! There was a lot of things going on at the party.  Everyone was to bring a Pinterest inspired food and gift item.  Then we made a craft inspired from Pinterest.


Here are pictures of the food.


This was very festive!!
             
This was good too.  I love dips!

 I don't remember what this was but I remember it being good.
 
OMG! This was delicious!!!!  If I remember correctly white chocolate and peppermint bark popcorn!!
 
 
 
Pumpkin Fluff with Ginger Snaps
 
Farley brought this...Chic Fil A nuggets.  She was allowed. She had surgery the day before.
 
 
 
 
The Pinterest inspired craft was a message board.  We took a cookie sheet which already had holes drilled into them and spray painted them.  (Thank you Mr. Kelley)  Once they were dry we put ribbon through the holes to hang them.
 
 
 

 
While we wanted for the spray paint to dry, we made magnets.   Diane and Rachel brought all their craft stuff for us to choose from.  There were buttons, dominos, scrabble tiles, fabric flowers..pretty much anything you could think of to turn into a magnet, they had.  THANK YOU, Daine and Rachel!!!
 
 
 
After we made our message boards, we exchanged gifts white elephant style. 
 
 
 
This is what I stole!!  I absolutely LOVE snowmen!!!




 
Everyone that came with the gifts we all got!!
 
 
It was so much fun!!! We are talking about doing this every couple of months.

December Currently and Holiday Stuff

So it is that time again..here lately the only time I post.  Sorry!  It is Currently time..

 
 
 
 
 
 
This Thanksgiving we went to my husband's aunt's house in La Grange, TX.  The kids really enjoyed it.  Here are some pictures.
 


 
 
 
 
 
 
We decided this year we would start Elf on the Shelf.  Our elf arrived the Saturday after Thanksgiving. 
 
 He was waiting on our Christmas train. He brought them the movie Arthur's Christmas.

We named him Arthur which came from the movie he brought us. 


He also brought us breakfast.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Also that Saturday morning we painted with Santa.  Santa had added his handprint to a plate and then we added the kids' handprints to it.  Then they painted a snowman ornanment. Santa arrived to take pictures and with a little surprise..reindeer ears. 
 
 Concentrating really hard!


Waving to Santa from far away was perfectly fine but as soon as we go close she didn't want to touch him.
 


 We convinced her to go touch Santa's bell bracelet and she was ok with that but as soon as she touched it she was gone.

We saw our friend, Hallie, there!
 
Don't forget to go over to my friend's blog and link up with your Currently.

Happy November and Currently

First thing is first..HAPPY HALLOWEEN!  I know it is a little late.  Here is my daughter dressed up as Tinkerbell!

 
 
For a project at school, the kids had to turn a pumpkin into a character from a book they were reading. They came out very cute!!! Here are some pictures of my class' pumpkins. 
 
















On another note..I sold my first item on TpT!!!!!!!   I'm so excited!!!!  I can't believe someone actually bought something from my store.  :-)  I was grinning ear to ear when I got the notification on my phone.
