Dr. Seuss is on the Loose!

After making Thing 1 and Thing 2 cupcakes for my son's school this year I was inspired to look into this theme for my son Cole's 1st birthday.  I feel like I hit the jackpot while visiting The Giving Madam's blog!  She has such amazing things I can't wait to use her amazing items for his birthday party and for Read across America in my classroom.  I am so grateful for her because I e-mailed her and she personalized something for his party.  The best thing is all of these amazing items are FREE!!!  Can you believe how generous she is?!  She is currently trying to win a trip to volunteer with the Peace Corps.  She needs all the votes she can get.  I would love for your help!!  Click HERE to help her win!!  THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!  Let's give back to someone who is so talented and giving herself.

Wahoooooo!!!

I am super excited that my sister Jessica just got a teaching job.  She will be teaching a K-2 Self Contained class and I couldn't be happier for her.  Plus, another bonus is that we will be teaching together.  I threw together a little shindig to celebrate with her.  Here are some pics...

I found the circle tags and banner from some awesome blogs.  Check them out.

A thanks for Ms. Winston for the M & M Prescription for Teachers.  It looked adorable framed and set next to a jar of M & M's.  Check out her blog HERE.
