Sadly, my summer has ended and this week is back to school.
Which means the occasionally tired eye, too early outfit post like this one.
Which also means there may be more of these:
To help me prepare for being back in school:
I'm doing my best to focus on the things I'm looking forward to like:
a normal routine, eight year old hugs,
looking forward to weekends, wearing work clothes,
funny stories and doing a job I know I'm meant to have.
I'll be focusing on things like make me happy, like these new bracelets I got from Karly from the arm party swap that I know I will wear often:
(Thank you Karly - I LOVE them!)
I will be channeling my nephew's excitement for going to visit me while working in my classroom:
I will also be practicing this face, to show off just a few times at the beginning of the year so my students know I mean business.
You probably wouldn't mess with me if I looked like this right?
Happy back to school for all you teachers out there!

Love the "teacher face"! Yay for back to school time :)
That last picture makes me so happy. You look seriously confident and tough. And that video of Travis is too too funny. What a goof! I appreciate your positive thinking efforts : )
I seriously love those old navy tees! i have just about every color!
Your outfit looks so comfortable!
Hope you have a great school year
Haha I wouldn't mess with you with that face!
I am in love with that necklace! I've been searching for one just like it!
Yay! I hope your first week back goes well :)
Cute outfit! I am all about that necklace, and I'm a total sucker for a skirt with pockets.
Also, your nephew is just about the cutest thing!

DYING at the face in the last picture! I still don't think you would hurt a fly :)
Those kiddos are lucky to have you as their teacher! And I'm sure you'll get the hang of the early morning pictures again.. or hey, sunglasses! My best friend in the morning!

Kid hugs are the best. Best part of back to school. You deserve those hugs. Best dressed teacher I know!!
Love your blog! I'm a teacher too and start on Wednesday. One more day of relaxation!!
Back to school already? Dang, that went fast! Good luck dear, happy new school year! {I totally just rhymed.. on purpose ;)}
That last picture is too funny. Definitely not the smiling Katie we're used to in bloggy land! I really love your silver necklace...I saw on Faith's blog that you just recently got it? I need to hit up Kohls! Yay for a new, exciting school year :)
I've got a week on ya. So I'm a little jealous of your additional five days off! ;) How do you balance blogging and teaching and being a wife!?!?!
I think my eyebrows are already permanently formed into "the teacher look". It's only been 3 days. Good luck this week!
I love your outfit!! so cute :) have a wonderful week back! XO
Gotta love a skirt with pockets! And those shoes are ADORBS!
XOXO

LOVE that outfit! Absolutely something I would wear! :)
LOVE that you have a job you are meant to have!! That is the best...I hope to have that someday too!!! I love your entire look, but I have to say, aren't those Old Navy T-shirts the best? I have two and really need to get some more. I love how they feel and fit. Well, good luck going back to school!!

So comfy-chic!!

That last face is so awesome! And I have to tell you- it makes me SO HAPPY to come to your blog and see that what your wearing is from a store I know and that isn't crazy expensive! Love it!
Love the outfit. I have the same flats from Target and get so much use out of them.
I love the color blocking and the necklace!
Dropping by from the arm party linky page. I love the colors of your bracelet and I share your back to school woes. I teach preschool and as much as I want to get my daily dose of sweet sweet 3 year old hugs, I do not want to part with my summer freedom. I think back to school adjustment is just as hard (if not harder) for us teachers!
cute bracelets! And I definitely wouldn't mess with you if you had that face.
