TGIF

**I owe photo credits on the last post to Aunt Kathy. Thank You!
I'm feeling bad about my whining last night. Surprisingly, when I got to work this morning I received the news that we could raise our thermostats to 68! I am very thankful for my job, and the fact that I am a tenured teacher.

Also, thank you Lori, Wendy, and Aunt Kathy. I know it would be A LOT HARDER going to school if I had children. I witnessed that first hand when my mom was in school. Have I ever mentioned that my mother was a nurse for 15 years? She went back to college when we were in elementary school and became a teacher. She's a great inspiration to me. Yesterday was her birthday. Happy belated birthday mom!


Here's the birthday girl with the brothers.

Wendy, here's the fourth picture in my fourth folder.

It's part of a wreath I made for Britton's baby shower.

Here's what the rest looked like:



I wish I was crafty, and try to be sometimes. The wreath is not an original idea, but I did come up with the plan to cover my tacky, gold wreath holders with cute ribbon. I have made several cute wreath hangers. Now I just need to make wreaths to put on them!

Have a great weekend!!!

    So glad about the 68 degrees. That is a little more reasonable. The wreath is cute and very girly. Caroline would like it.

  4. Happy belated birthday to your mom. She is very pretty and I can see you both favor quite a bit. I am glad they are keeping you a little warmer. I think the wreath is absolutely adorable.

  5. Happy belated b-day to your mom. My mother informed me about ya'll having to turn down the thermostat to 65 degrees. We haven't had to resort to that yet, and I hope we never do. In my opinion, I think there are other ways to conserve $$$ than making all of the children (teachers) sit in the cold. Do you think the Central Office has their's set on 65? ;) Just a thought.....
