A Holly Bloggy Christmas/ New Year's Resolutions Linky Party/ 11 in 11

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you so much to 
SARA over at Smiling in Second Grade.


Photobucket


You should go check out her blog. It is so cute!

She was my Holly Bloggy partner. I actually put it in my stocking until Christmas Day. I can't tell you how hard that was NOT to open it. But, I didn't (my children actually helped me out!).

 I am so glad I waited....


A cute polka-dot planner. (I needed one for my purse :)
Sticky notes WITH A B!!!! I LOVE STICKY NOTES!!!!
A Sparkly K. I am going to hang that on my door!
And some BEAUTIFUL green earrings. 

I had to post a pic of them on me because the other picture does not show how pretty they really are. (By the way, that is my nephew....soooooo cute!)




Thanks so much to:

Caitlyn at Ms. Preppy (Adventures in Primary and Polka Dots)




and 


Kindergarten Korner


They put so much work into this. I had so much fun! I can't wait to do it again next year!!!

New Year's Resolutions

Tammy, over at Live, Love, Laugh is having a New Year's Linky Party.

Live Love Laugh


 Just what I need to start the year off right.

Personal: 1. Get back into shape.
               2. Go on a "date night" with my husband once a month. 
               3. Spend some quality time with each of my children.

Teaching: 1. Clean up behind my table.
                 2. Work on the Common Core Standards. :(
                 3. Make sure my students laugh each day.

Blogging: 1. Post interesting things that will help other teachers.
                 2. Create one unit a month.
                 3. I am stealing borrowing this from Jennifer over at First Grade Blue Skies
                    Thank the teachers I get freebies from. 
Great idea!!!!

  10. Okay - you have inspired me to actually make something from my pin boards! That carmel sauce looks yummy! I'll be looking at that very same face (that oh-my-goodness-I'm-driving-for-real-face) this time next year. It's amazing how fast the years fly! Now I'm off to check out those units!
