Five for Friday!

Happy Friday!  Summer vacation is in full swing and I am as busy as ever!  It's so nice to have extra time to spend with family and friends.  I have also been a faithful blogger this week!

Her's a peek at my first full week of summer, thanks to Doodle Bugs Teaching!

1. Last summer I purchased a class set of notebooks at Target.  They were on clearance for less than 25 cents each.  Of course, I had to get them!  However I don't know what to do with them now.  The covers are pretty girly, so I would need to put something on them.  This is where I need your help.  What should I do with them??

2. My sister's wedding is coming up in 2 weeks - I'm so excited!  My mom and grandmother both need a dress so we went shopping together.  The only problem?  None of us like to shop for dresses!  My mom did end up purchasing one, but my grandmother came home empty-handed.  As you can see, I was being uber-helpful and pointing out the ugliest dresses I could find.

 3. Helllooo chevron!  I went to Hobby Lobby this week.  Big mistake.  I may have found one or two things that I liked... I purchased a large magnetic board that will hopefully go in my home office.  If it doesn't work, it's coming to school with me!  Also, I don't have a classroom theme, but I'm trying to stick to just a few colors this year.  Pink, green and blue it is.  Chevron theme.  A little black thrown in. Hey, it's better than the "every color under the rainbow" theme that I have used in the past!

4. The Calendar Notebook was born this week!  I am so excited to start using mine!  Read more about it here.

 5. I went out to dinner with a few friends from work this week.  We ate right on the water.  It was beautiful!  It makes me really appreciate living in RI.  That is, until the tide came in and filled up the parking lot.  Luckily the valet moved my friend's car right as the water hit her tires.  Yikes!

Have a wonderful weekend!
