Oh, the Places You'll Go!

As school was approaching, I scrolled and scrolled and scrolled 

through Pinterest. I needed something to make my classroom pop.

Finally, a picture hit me! It was an awesome board of

 Dr. Seuss that would be perfect for my Career Orientation class! 

Original bulletin board found here.  

My super artistic friend, Anna Kate, and I made a plan and went to town. 

It consisted of white butcher paper, a projector, paint, water balloons, 

paper mache, and a hot glue gun. Each step we took we eeked 

with excitement as we got farther and it got cuter! 

Most time consuming project ever - yet so incredibly worth it. :)

The finished product!! I smile every time I walk into my classroom!

Thank you for the pinspriation

Summer fun, happened so fast

I'm back just as the summer is ending and what a crazy summer it has been!

I went to the Virgin Islands for a boyfriend's family wedding (lucky, I know!)

Snorkeled for the first time and LOVED it!
Accepted a new job!!
Went to a wedding for one of my favorite couples!

Sad goodbye to 3 of the most amazing coworkers :(

Moved back to NW Arkansas (YAY!!)
Traveled to Kansas City for a girls weekend with my two best friends!
(Best. Weekend. Ever.)

Celebrated my big 2-4 at my favorite country club

where my best friend, Benjamin, from college joined, 

a wonderful date with my sexy stud,

and ended it with a family dinner at Keller's Kove! (This is a foot of delicious onion rings)

Got to see my entire family over the Fourth (finally!)
and see an amazing firework show by my two favorite pyrotechnics (dad and bro)

Danced the night away in Little Rock.

Traveled to Hot Springs for an beautiful wedding shower.

Realized just how much Mr. Button avoids the camera with sniffs, slurps, and yawns!

Became pen-pals with the sweetest old friend!
Witnessed my momma look everywhere for her golf ball 
which was, after looking everywhere but the hole, a hole-in-one! 
Love crazy laughs with her!!

And went to a wedding at a neat ole barn in BFE, Missouri.

Oh yeah, traveled to Branson lots, took two graduate glasses, decorated my new classroom, AND survived cheer camp! 

Love summers, but now it is time to snap back to reality (ope there goes gravity!)
