October Currently

Yay!  I actually look forward to linking up with Farley at the beginning of the month!

I am super excited that September is O-V-E-R!  Can I get an Amen?!  Even though it was my birthday month, it's always a challenging month.  September was really tough, hot, and all about setting those routines.  October is here and I feel like I can take a breath!

Let's get to it...

Listening to my two daughters say good night to each other and there was NO blood!  They can be the best of friends and they can also be severe enemies.  It is very sweet!

Loving that my classroom routines are normal and I can teach other things.  Guided Reading groups, Words Their Way Groups, Co-teaching groups, Daily 5, Morning Routine and etc. are SET!  Whew!  No wonder September is a challenge!

Thinking that I enjoyed attending a LEGO Story Starter Professional Development day!  I have been using LEGO Build To Express for a year now and have never used Story Starter.  I think my students are going to love the kits!  The picture is the teacher goodie "bag" they gave us at the training!  Just fun and cute materials!

Wanting my new iPhone 6 Plus to ship!!!  It's on back order until October 24th (another reason to love October).  I'm worried it's going to be huge but I use it so much that I think it might be just what I need!

Needing bio freeze!!  Sunday I ran my second 1/2 marathon!  I just stopped taking Aleve around the clock.  My body is sore but I had a blast!  This is the view as I ran across the interstate bridge!  Beautiful!

I love the charm my husband bought me for my bracelet after the race! 

Treat!  This is the time of year for Whitey's Pumpkin Ice Cream Shakes, pumpkin pie, and pumpkin bars!  Yep!  I love the comfort foods the season offers!

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to link up with Farley for October!
