Well the weekend is finally here!!! I survived my first full week back to school. But I have to tell you, I was one tired little mama come Friday afternoon. Have you ever heard the saying, “Stick a fork in me, I am done”. That is exactly how I felt by Friday afternoon. It is so crazy how you get so out of whack from being off for a few months. I really think it has more to do with all the stress that goes along with making sure everything is up and running that first week. No worries though, I will have all my mojo back in full force within another week.
Now on to fun blogging stuff! I am linking up with two great blogs {Covered in Glitter and Glue and Run! Mrs. Nelson’s Got the Camera} for their linky parties. The first is with Covered in Glitter and Glue. About a month ago I signed up to participate in the Blogger Exchange. I have to admit that this was the first time that I did something like this.
I was so happy when my package finally arrived. My blogger exchange partner was Portia Pitts from Tidbits From Ms. Pitts. I love how her blog name rhymes. Plus we kinda match since both of our blogs have “Tidbits” in the title. First it arrived in a cute pink box. Oh, the fun of unwrapping!!! It was a cute teacher tote with my initial monogrammed on it. The monogrammed also had a little yellow daisy by it. It will match my theme perfectly. I also loved that the bag had pockets in the front where you could store scissors, pens, or whatever you need. I absolutely loved it. Thank you Portia so much. You brightened my week. I hope my arrived in one piece {ha}! I also want to thank Covered in Glitter and Glue and Adventures of Ms. Smith for hosting. It was so nice to receive a little something for back to school.
The second person I am linking up with is with Michele at Run! Mrs. Nelson’s Got the Camera for her Saturday Snapshots! Most of my snapshots have to do with going back to school. I just love looking at other people’s pictures. It is kinda like you get a small glimpse into their life. Here is a glimpse into some of the things going on in my life.
This is my second grade team! Hands down the best group of women/teachers to work with!!!
The girls and I on our first official day back to school!
They needed a pictured with daddy too!!!
I had to include this one in my snapshots. I totally love it! I didn’t even know that my oldest had taken this picture of herself until I was writing this post and going through the pictures on the camera. What a silly girl!!!!
So there you have it, my two link ups! This week has been exhausting but exciting at the same time. I can’t wait to read about your blogger exchange and take a peek at your snapshots. Don’t forget to enter my 100 follower giveaway. A winner will be announced at the end of next week. As always thanks for stopping by and taking a peek!
Jamie, I love that your team has matching shirts. That's so sweet. You and your girls look like you had a great first day back to school. Love the tongue picture of your oldest! That should be framed!
