Honeymoon!

As most of you know, Griffin and I had to post pone our honeymoon due to his passport not arriving in time.  Apparently they are randomly flagging 15% of passport applications that come through & he was one of the lucky ones. We were both actually really glad it worked out this way.  We were both in need of a nice vacation & this trip couldn't of been more perfect.

We went to an all inclusive resort in Playa Mujeres Mexico (30 min from Cancun).  The people were all extremely nice, the beaches & pool were beautiful, and we felt very spoiled.  We did A LOT of eating alllll day long, laying by the beach, and going to shows at night.  A BIG thank you to Colleen, Griffin's mom, for giving us this trip.  We both had such a great, relaxing time.

                           

   

I hope you had a restful & happy Spring break!  For all of you teachers, 9 more weeks to go. 

WE CAN DO IT!

Happy Spring,

Amy

                         

Lately

These last few weeks have been very hectic around here with Griffin working extra during the week & the past 4 weekends, craziness at school, & me traveling to see friends & families on the weekend.  We are both getting a case of Spring fever & are anxiously awaiting our trip to Mexico next week for our REAL honeymoon!

Here is a little glimpse of the past 2 weeks. 

Last week we celebrated Dr. Seuss's birthday!  We have read several Dr. Seuss books & will continue to read more this week.  We do a fun activity with every book & add the cover of the book to our wall.  I didn't take any pictures on the big day but got a few on the "Foot Book."

The kids traced their own feet and came up with their own antonyms.

Our learning stations were all based on Dr. Seuss books.  I only remembered to take a picture of the reading & math stations.

We also continued our money unit last week. All week my kiddos had been working hard to earn coins for good behavior and hard work.  They could trade coins throughout the week and on Friday we had a "Honeybees Garage sale!"  Each student brought an item to sale & the kiddos got to buy one thing with the money they earned.

While I have been changing kids lives, ha, Griffin has been going back & forth from school & work & having lots of evenings staring at his Spanish book.

This weekend I went to Dallas to look at wedding dresses with my good friend Liz who is getting hitched in December.  It was such a fun time & she walked away with an incredible dress!

One work week, 2 papers & a test are all that keep us from an AMAZING spring break/honeymoon at an all inclusive resort. ahhhhh I can feel the sun & relaxation now.

Hope you all have a blessed week!
