Random Sunday

Hi everyone...lots of randoms going on this week, so I thought I would link up with Michelle from Fab-u-lous in First for a Sunday Smorgasbord:

{uno}

Friday, Gracie and I decided to do a simple Mama-and-Me day.

We ate out, did some shopping for daddy at Wal-Mart, washed her hands three times after going potty because the sink was small and just too cool, and went to the Dollar Tree where I found all these die-cuts for 25 cents each.  So, I totally staged the Dollar Tree picture my throwing the die-cuts on top of Grace in the cart and she kept on asking, "¿Más?  ¿Más?"  She kept on throwing them on herself in the cart.  She is just too cute!

This is what I get for breakfast in my house.  Veggie cheese omelette with avocado on the side...on a paper plate.  Yes, we're classy like that.

I cannot cook - like, really I can't.  I am a very lucky girl that married a man who can cook and who likes to cook...so this is what I woke up to Saturday morning.

We had my nephew, Zachary's, fifth birthday Saturday afternoon.  He really in to Tae-Kwon-Do (he's a green belt!), so it was only natural that he would have his party at the dojo.  We had a really fun time and Gracie got to participate a lot (thanks, Aunt Kelli).   Side props for my hubby the photographer -- he got some awesome action shots!

We are leaving in a couple of hours for our summer family vacation.  It started off that we were going to Colorado because I have never seen the mountains.  Then we were going to stop at Mount Rushmore because I have never been there.  When my mama was diagnosed with cancer, I didn't want to travel too far so we knocked it down to Mall of America in Minnesota.  We were all set to do it, but I just felt bad going that far with my mom recovering from surgery.  I know my sister is here, but I don't want to be too far if something happens.

So I got a Groupon last week for Lake Lawn Resort in Wisconsin and our family vacation was decided on.


This is our life for the next few days, swimming (Gracie is a fish!), sitting on the porch of our resort room, and some spa time for mama (I still need that pedicure!).  I think this will be a fun end of the summer trip!

I am bringing my laptop to continue in my blogging adventure, but I am very focused on getting some quality family time in!  I can't wait to share pics when I get back!

Sunday Smorgasbord

Hey everyone!  I am going to try another linky party today from Michelle at Fab-u-lous in First:

{One}
Did my weekly Sunday Back-to-School shopping trip today.  It started off at Office Max:  poor Gracie got buried by the 25 cent packs of glue sticks (20 of them: teacher limit!).  She loved it actually!


{two}
Then we headed over to Target to get pencil boxes for my kids behavior tickets (I need to do a post on that soon!) and Grace had to try a chair.  Then her baby needed a chair.  Then she needed to get a bucket, went back to sit down and realized baby didn't have a bucket and had to get her one, too.  #shopping with toddlers (That is the first time I have ever done a hashtag!)


{three}
I need to get an order into Creative Teaching Press ASAP.  I need want this border so badly -- it would go perfectly in my classroom.  Also, I think I am leaning towards birds, trees, and nature type of classroom this year and they have a lot of cute stuff there!

{four}
I saw these at Target today and I just got giddy.  Why do I love smelly markers so much?  I need (no, I am not crossing that out -- because it is a need) new ones badly.  I will be getting them on my next trip there!

{five}
Three more days left of summer school.  I love teaching summer school, but I am ready for a break and ready to start really planning for the upcoming school year.  I do have a pretty awesome group of kids this summer though...

And that is it for my Sunday Smorgasbord!  Hope everyone enjoyed it!
