It's Garage Sale Time in TENNESSEE!!

Well, if you read my last post, you would know that I have been in Johnson City for two days now preparing for a Garage Sale. My family, Chris, and I are planning a trip to Disney World at the end of May. We thought it would be a great idea to gather up our "junk," and have a Garage Sale to make some spending money! Here's a recap of day one...

We woke up at 5am to get signs from Walmart, and put the on the side of the road. Temperature was only 35 degrees with a high of only 47 (and I only brought sandals!). We pulled everything out of the garage around 7:30am and our first customer was waiting on us! We got Panera bagels for breakfast, and closed up around noon. Needless to say, we had a GREAT sale on day one, and now we are ready for day two! Here are some pictures:

Spring Break!

WOO HOO! I am officially on Spring Break! Friday, March 18th was Grandparents Day at school, and needless to say, I was ready for a break! I have had a wonderful break so far. We celebrated Liz's birthday Saturday, and now the real fun begins. In May, my family is going to Disney World, and we are having a Garage Sale to earn some spending money.

All day Sunday, Chris and I gathered all kinds of "goodies" for the Garage Sale. I also did some Spring Cleaning of the house (from top to bottom)!

Here is what the Murano currently looks like:

I also took Delilah to get a hair cut today. Let's just say, she got the "summer do!" HAHA!

Delilah and I will leave to go to Johnson City tomorrow afternoon. Wish us luck!!

Happy Birthday to Liz!

This past Saturday we celebrated my friend Liz's birthday! It was a gorgeous 80 degrees, and she wanted to have a picnic in the park! We ate BBQ, drank wine, then went to paint pottery. Needless to say, we have a wonderful time (as always), and we got to keep a cute pottery item! HAPPY BIRTHDAY LIZ!!

I painted a "pencil" cup for my classroom! :)

Zeig's Birthday

A couple weekends ago, several of us went to Nashville to celebrate Jennifer Zeigler's birthday! We ended up staying a The Big Bang (a dueling piano bar) all night. We had an absolute BLAST! I am so lucky to have such WONDERFUL friends! Happy Birthday Zeig!

WOW! America Exhibit!

I am so sorry it has been FOREVER since I have updated! I have been so busy lately with work. Since January, our first graders have been learning about America. Throughout the nine weeks, we sent "Flat Stanley's" all over the U.S. to find out more about the 50 states. Here is a look of Normal Park's Exhibit Night! Enjoy!
