. . . for Lauren and Lauren: High Five for Friday

May 17, 2012

High Five for Friday


 shirt & skirt: jcpenny  belt: target  shoes: dsw

 1. This skirt is in desperate need of some ironing.  I really only use my iron when I am making a project, but should probably take it out more often.  The intended pleats of this skirt are pretty impossible to find. 

2.  One of my students just told me last week that his last name is not spelled Elliot but is spelled Elliott with two t's.  I've been spelling it wrong on everything the entire year, and he decides that I should know when we have three weeks left of school.  

3.  I plan on making this popcorn this weekend as a thank you to my parent volunteers.
And I look forward to many taste tests along the way.

4. Tonight is open house at my school.  Today I had the students write a little thank you flower to their parents for something they've done throughout the year.

Apparently I've failed to teach my students how to spell. 


And it appears that one of my students had a life crisis this year without me knowing it.


5.  Monday was our 7 year anniversary and I woke up to these beautiful flowers and a card titled The best 7 years of my life.  

If I knew how to use twitter I believe I might write something like #luckywife


One summer goal - figure out twitter.

I also know nothing about Twitter. And I don't plan on figuring it out. #dontquotemeonthat

Don't worry. I've probably done wrong by some kids this year too :)

Iron, what's that? (I hate to iron) Popcorn looks super yummy. Love the kiddos notes! Roses...so sweet. Twitter? I haven't even figured out, nor gotten on FB!!!

Brittany said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

Oh man, those kid notes are too funny! And twitter is totally over my head...I gave up on it a long time ago. Your flowers are beautiful!

Haha - love the hashtag (I had to google what it was). Love the color of that skirt Katie, even if it is a little wrinkly. Have a great weekend :)

I love your ombre skirt, it's so pretty! The notes from the kids are very sweet. I don't know how to use Twitter either, so you're not alone. Have a great weekend, Katie!

Whoooa!!! Rock bottom! HA! If only they knew! Hope your last 11 days fly by!

Thanks for stopping by the blog!

Katie @ My Darling Days said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

Haha, I don't use twitter either. In fact, I don't even get those hash tags everyone uses all the time. Oh well. You can't win them all. That is hilarious about your students, what grade do you teach again? And that skirt is fantastic, ironing is so over-rated. You sit down once and it's ruined anyways! Have a good weekend Katie :)

Lauren said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

Too funny about the student who just decided to inform you that you spelled the last name wrong. Kids are funny like that, aren't they? Also loved the "rock bottom" comment. I have a feeling reading your blog is going to make me miss teaching.
