FIVE

Happy Saturday! 
 I'm joining in with Doodle Bugs Teaching for a fun Friday linky party! 
List 5 random things about your day.. or in the past week!

1. I am trying to give up dairy and meat for a little while. I've usually only done low-carb diets but right now I'm all about organic fruits, vegetables, and brown rice. I hope I can detox for the month of January.


2. Finally linked up with Farley's 2013 currently. I was a little late. I sure do love them. I can't wait to use the Currently for your classroom with the students. Love this packet.

3. I'm off to the Atlanta Gift Market next weekend. It's always a blast but very overwhelming. If you ever get the chance to go ... GO! I just usually spend WAY too much $.
3 huge buildings filled with fun new products!

 4.  I'm getting new carpet so my house is a mess right now. 


5. Yay! I finished my Let Freedom Ring- American Symbols packet just in time for when we get back into studying American History. The 2nd grade will be performing an American Musical right around President's Day. I am so glad to have this completed. 



Don't forget to stop by Doodle Bugs Teaching and read some more "Five for Friday's."

  2. Love your blog title - I am the family photographer and everyone usually says that about me. I love photography, it is my hobby. I've had a great time making mix books since my daughter was in high school. I am curious about the Atlanta gift market - I've never heard of it. I live close to Atlanta and would love to go. Maybe you could fill me in?? Is there a website??

  3. We are getting new carpet soon, too, but I am trying to hold off until the summer. It is only in the bedrooms, but I still know how big of a mess it will make. I agree, break went by too quickly! Hope you have a great weekend!

    1. I thought it could get done in a week but no it is like a 3 week process. Hopefully it will be in and installed by next weekend. :)

  4. I can't decide whether it's a good thing or bad thing that I don't live anywhere near Atlanta!

    Good Luck shopping!

  12. I'm not really an expert pinner so I pinned both to your blog post and to your TPT link just to be safe. Great packet! Love all the effort you put into it! The clip art is really cute too!

  13. Thanks for the fun way to get your unit. I'm the team teaching social studies teacher for my grade level this year and I'm always looking for materials. I hope this is the correct way to link my pin.
