Fun Friday (and a few feathers!)

Today is a very fun Friday.

Today we have the book fair at school, which is super exciting for this cheap, I mean thrifty mama....cause it's buy one get one free day! WooHoo!

Today is also the school picnic. And it is a fabulously sunny and warm spring day. It's couldn't be more perfect! (the grass might be a little wet, but who cares when the sun is shining so bright!)

And, this mama is also sporting the latest and greatest (at least that's what she said when she sold them to me!)

Feathers!

Feathers in my hair!

What?! I know!! It's totally crazy, wild and so hip! Which I am none of.....but hey....why not have a little fun in my life!

Can you see them? (Right above Max's head!) OMG...can't believe I did it!


Hope you all have a fabulous, fun Friday too! And go get you some feathers!

Thank You!

My kids are so lucky! They both have fabulous teachers who love what they do and have a passion for teaching. With this being Teacher Appreciation Week, I wanted to give them both a cute little token of thanks.

Remember these buckets? They turned out super cute!


I even order some labels for Maggie's teacher that say, "This book belongs to...." so she can keep track of her classroom books. I didn't do this for Max's teacher as maybe someday soon her title will change for Ms. to Mrs. (I will order some labels for her when that day comes!)

I hope they enjoy a little bit of spring and I really hope they know how much we appreciate all their hard work!

Let the races begin!

Racing season has started. This means many of our weekends are booked. This also means that my man is trying to get in as many miles as possible for training. So I'm officially a bike widow.

He is also racing on a team this year which means it's not all about having fun! Although, Andy's pretty good at not-stressing-about-anything! No pressure for him!

Maggie is becoming a pro at the water-bottle-hand-off!

All kidding aside, we are very proud of him and love going out to support him! Way to go!
