Sunday Smorgasbord

So I let the cat out of the bag and my co-workers now know that I create and sell products on TpT.  They offer to buy my stuff but I won't let them - they're my colleagues so they get stuff for free!  The funny thing is, now they have started making requests.  Ok by me!  So you get to see what I am making for them now.

I spent all afternoon Friday and all day yesterday working on this baby.  I was sick, so it made it that much more challenging!  We are going to be creating Math Word Walls in our classrooms.  Studies show that students who are exposed to the vocabulary in class, will perform better on tests.  And, ladies and gentlemen, isn't that what teaching is all about?  Those @#$%^& tests.  Moving on.

Here she is, in all her glory!  There are over 100 words with colorful picture definitions.

They can be picked up in either of my stores:

{TpT}

{TN}

Be on the lookout for a freebie that goes along with it in the near future!

Also, don't forget about my Birthday Giveaway!  Just click on the picture to enter.

And here's my Sunday randomness...

My birthday is coming up next week so my mom took me to buy a new pair of Danskos this weekend since she had a coupon (gotta love coups!)  I wanted the metallic, shiny ones but they didn't have any :(

However, there was a Dansko rep at the store and he told me about a pair that hasn't even been released yet, called Shooting Star.  He had one in his car (not a pair, just one shoe) and showed me.  And, oh goodness, I fell in love!  I had to order them because the store won't get a shipment in until the end of the month.  I found a pic online, so check em out:

How awesome are those?!  I am so excited about them!!  My students love my plain, shiny black ones, so I'm sure they will be ecstatic abou these.

It's a chilly damp day here in RI (helloo Fall) so my husband and I picked up some delicious soup from a restaurant down the street.  It is sooo good and was perfect for today.  Yum!

And it is Sunday, so that means Patriots day!  Sporting my jersey and we are on our way to my grandmother's house to watch the game.  Go Pats!

And her is my poor helper of the day:

Sad, little man had "the surgery" done this week and is stuck in the cone for two weeks.  Let's just say that Raleigh doesn't like it and neither does Mom.

If you have a 3-day weekend like me, enjoy it!
