Five on Friday - Back to School?!

Happy Friday!! It is officially my very last Friday off before I'm officially back to work, although I've been back for a few days working on scheduling. I'm sad my summer with the babies is coming to an end, but I'm happy to be setting up for another year. I get so excited to start the school year, because it's a clean slate and there is so much potential to change the world! I was just thinking yesterday that I am seriously so lucky to have such amazing coworkers too - it makes those hard days about 1,000 times easier to navigate with good people to back you up, listen to you vent, and make you laugh. Life is good.

ONE.



Last weekend, we celebrated Chris's parents' birthdays and played with Chris's siblings! It was such a fun weekend. I'm lacking in pictures because the girls went wedding dress shopping and those photos are top secret! Both my children were exhausted after several trips to the pool and tennis courts though.



TWO.



Back in March, I sent out an invite to some girlfriends in the DFW area and proposed a Supper Club. Each person signs up for one month to host, they take care of everything for that one month and everyone else brings the drinks. 1 month of hosting, cooking, and clean-up and 11 months to enjoy everyone else's cooking. I hosted a very lack luster inaugural supper club in April and then, these ladies just took it and ran! It. Just. Keeps. Getting. Better. Love you, dear friends and I'm already looking forward to our August Supper Club!



Nikki really outdid herself. Look at those beautiful drinks and blueberry tarts!

THREE.



Y'all, I am having a blast distributing Lipsense! The thing I'm enjoying the most though are all the selfies people are posting on my page wearing their gorgeous colors and all of the positive, uplifting comments people are making on each other's posts! These posts make my day - more girl power, please!



FOUR.



I can't even with these two. They both had an AWESOME week back at school, even if they started unexpectedly and sooner than  I thought! Zoey has been in an amazing mood - I think she's been missing her friends, and Luke is loving hanging with babies like him. He gets so frustrated that he can't do what Zoey does all day.



Zoey got home on Wednesday and started singing "I've got sunshine in my pockets". Luckily, I know this one! I pulled up "Can't Stop the Feeling" by Justin Timberlake and she started singing and dancing! They must play this song at school - it was so cute!



This one turned 7 months old on Monday and I am soaking up all the baby cuddles I can get - it's going too fast. Slow down, time.

FIVE.



I'm taking back my classroom and setting it up like the Pinterest room of my dreams (it looks pretty terrible last year) - designed for my incoming students' needs. I spent a couple of hours on it while taking a scheduling break and it may be worse than when I started. 



But check out my little personal space! I'm using the clipboards to hold the weekly agenda and lesson plans.



And my pencil area...I anticipate this will last a day, but I need better accountability on my pencils! You can't do math without one!

On my list left to do...set up an information wall, bell schedule, missed assignments. Hang my math alphabet. Flex seating. Data wall. Word Wall. Student files. Border refresh. Classroom management system. Not to mention the most important - lesson plans. Eeep!

 

But today, I'm taking the day off to be with my babies. Have an amazing weekend, you guys! Linking up.



See y'all next week!
