Printable: Faith: Faith, Hope and Love

I've had many low times in my life.  And still, looking back on them I haven't pieced together a formula for how I've pulled out of them.  I do know that there were 2 things I always clung too - hope and love.  As I realized I needed God - faith did too.  So here is 2 Corinthians 13:13 to remind us how powerful these are.  It's got a Valentine's Theme to it.  Enjoy!

Printable: Motivational: Appreciate Your Heart

We all have one thing in common.  We all are just trying the best we can.  What I've come to learn is that doing the best you can is different to everyone and as we are all different and unique, I would expect nothing less.  It is nice to be reminded that you are appreciated and the heart you put out there is too.  Share it with someone you appreciate, just the gesture will go a long way.

Disney: Snack Recommendation: Dole Whip

If you've done any research into what's delicious in Disney then I have no doubt you've seen these two words - Dole Whip.  This absolutely deserves all the hype that it gets. It's ice cream.  Delicious soft serve ice cream.  You can get it in vanilla, pineapple or orange.  They also have a Dole Whip Float where you can pick your ice cream and they put in pineapple juice.  So you start eating this creamy, tantalizing treat and then you reach juice! I can't even! You say but it's only ice cream and juice and I say then you haven't tried it because you have to have tried it to know that there is nothing else like it out there. It's amazing.  It was worth all the time I had to stand in line.  All 3 of us loved it and already know our first night, when we get in later in the evening, we're going to have some Dole Whip.  You can find it...

Aloha Isle - Magic Kingdom

Pineapple Lanai - Polynesian Resort

Tamu Tamu Refreshments - Animal Kingdom

*Pineapple only, but you can get it with rum here*

Look at the yumminess...

The pictures make me want to either hop a flight tonight or climb through my computer.  You can use a snack credit or is a snack under $5.  A Must Eat!

Printable: Teaching: February Writing Prompt

I didn't forget about February!  I hope you've been able to keep up with this.  I noticed that people would comment to my students about what they wrote and they would become excited each month to put out the next one.  It's the month of love so of course it's about what love means to them.

Welcome...Again...In 2016!

So....it's been almost 5 months....and I'm horribly sorry!  If you may recall I didn't start this school year the same way I had in the past.  Instead of gearing up for a new group of 2nd graders, I was informed that I would be moved into a new position.  Teaching art and assisting my principal (and for about 3 months I was in denial that I was now in Administration but I am).  I thought this would be a main focus on my art classes with some assisting on the side.  It turns out it's more main focus on assisting with art coming 2nd.  I don't like to call art on the side because I still plan, prep and grade.  It's taken some time to get adjusted and how my new life fits.  The first half of this school year, raced by and I was barely keeping up.  However, thanks to Blizzard 2016, I've been able to recharge, rest and it's time to get this back and running.  I still love making printables. I have lots to share with you!  And you'll hear lots of Disney because we are just about 6 months away from our vacation!  I was reading my old posts and when I got to my Disney planning ones I had to chuckle - our vacation is not the same as when it was originally booked.  We've downgraded our Dining plan from Deluxe to Regular and decided to stay longer.  We are still staying to Port Orleans but instead of French Quarter, we've decided to try Riverside.  They have rooms with a pull down little bunk and the Cupcake (our little)  isn't so good at sharing a bed.  We've heard fantastic things about both of them so we are excited.  And both are connected so we can always go on over and try the pool and, of course, the beignets.  Superman (my hubs) is actually going to Disney on a small trip of his own before we depart and is staying there too so he'll get to preview it and let us know his thoughts.  And my reservations are coming up!  Stay tuned! We're gonna get this up and running again!
