A Gloomy May Saturday!

I had a great day today! I woke up early and got to cleaning up our house! Then I visited a few of my favorite stores downtown to pick up a few last minute gifts. I had to drop by my school to pick up my make-up that I left in my drawer (it was a long day yesterday), then I finally made my way to Kinderlou for Erin's baby shower! She is expecting Jenral in less than a month! We had a great time at his book shower! All of us reading specialists were eating it up and talking our talk!!! haha! I think that we kind of scared some of the other people that aren't teachers or reading grad people. Between the five of us, we covered every major issue in reading education (multiculturalism/diversity) and probably every standard in grades K-3 (homophones, homonyms, time)! :)


The cute package that I had for baby Jenral!


Erin and Jessica with the cake. Jessica made this cute work of art!


The mommy to be!


Trying to get a pic of all the presents!


This was a really cute idea that I am going to use at my friend, Emily's, baby shower that I am hosting next week! It just happnes to be a books and bottoms shower!


We had to get a grad girl picture!

It rained all day on and off....however, it only rained when I was in my car. It poured and thundered all the way to Kinderlou, on my way to Publix, and a few other places, but when I got to each place the sun would sort of shine..weird!

Matt and I had taco night and watched Slumdog Millionare...yuck! I did not like that movie at all. It was sooooo sad to me. So now I'm reading happy blogs to lift my spirits....but I really need to kick my butt into gear and go read for Dr. Root because Maymester is in full swing. Did I mention that after I got to vtown yesterday afternoon, I found out that class was cancelled due to an accident that Dr. Root's son was in? Luckily, Matt drove me....and we were able to make a date night out of it! I am thankful that Dr. Root's son is ok, and that we didn't have class...I was worn out after a busy week and graduation and I think my brain really benefitted from the rest! :)
