Schools Out for Summer!!! Yay!!! I'm sorry about my random posts! School is just always so hectic but it is finally summertime!

My friend Vernon made it onto the inside cover of the school yearbook! He's showing students how oobleck is a non-newtonian fluid. (This means that it has properties of a liquid and a solid) He's showing what it does on a subwoofer speaker. You can check it out in this video here. He then schooled some students in physics through arm wrestling. It was quite entertaining, the students had some big talk and then Vernon beat them in one fell swoop.

During the last week of school, one of my students brought me a green apple gatorade. It was delicious. He was suppose to bring it to me a month ago, but he finally did the last week of school. Better late than never right? The wooden rolling pin was a gift from another student. It was made by Dan Coulbury. He is an amazing carpenter, and you can check him out here and here. He is a very talented and creative carpenter. I can't believe my student knew my secret passion for baking!!! So on Sunday I made a ham and mushroom quiche from scratch.

On the last day of school I got to hang out with my friend Veronica and a bunch of other co-workers for one last happy hour. 

The things I'm looking forward to this summer are:
-waking up almost everyday to the cutest puppy in the world!
-eating tons of fresh fruit! (especially cherries and peaches)
-baking amazing things with my new rolling pin

weekly goals.



John and I talked last night about making weekly goals for ourselves. So here are my goals for this week. (hopefully posting it and telling John will make myself more motivated to complete them)

1. gym time monday-thursday evening and minimum of two times in the morning
2. start cleaning up my classroom

For some reason I was extremely exhausted today. I'm going to blame the weather that I didn't even have very much energy at the gym. But I am still proud of myself for going.

We also started to talk about some of the summer projects I have on my list, and here it goes.
1. create a pallet board wall
2. paint the shelves in my bathroom
3. repaint/refinish a 1950s outdoor metal glider bench
4. framed hanging magnetic scrabble boards
5. framed wine cork board
6. fix my framed chalkboards

That's all I have for now, I'm sure my summer list will grow.

I hope you make your weekly goals.

Happy Belated Mother's Day

Tulips from Yoga with Carlos

The Greate Divide


Happy Belated Mother's Day to all you Great Moms out there. Here are a few pictures from the weekend. I made my mom and John's mom their very own Mother's Day Card with envelope included. And Carlos and I went to yoga Sunday morning at lululemon. (P.S. I love there stuff and wish I could afford to buy everything in that store) Lastly, here is a picture on my way home from last minute Mother's Day Shopping with Carlos Friday night. I made it home before all the heavy rains hit.

Ok, Ok, I know I have been so MIA!! I have just been bombarded with work from school. BUT the good news school is coming to an end and it will be summer break which means I will have more time to do things I want which are:
