Hey Guys!
We had today off. We went to Frankenmuth...
We go every year. This place is the happiest on earth. My husband, AKA Clark Griswold...
...was in heaven. If it weren't so cold outside I'd take a picture of our house. It closely resembles the one above. Let's just say, I wasn't able to blow dry my hair yesterday morning because I kept blowing the fuse. All those lights suck up a lot of energy!
Yesterday was a half day of school for us. Contrary to what so many people think - it wasn't a half day for the teachers. It was our records day. If you can believe it, my cards are actually almost done - now that's a miracle! It must have been the cozy fire that put me in the mood to get things done...

| This "fire" lasted 10 minutes on YouTube - it was our "timer" for our daily 10 minute snack time. |
At the end of each writing unit I send a letter home with the "pile 'o writing" explaining what we worked on. A bunch of you asked for a copy of it on Instagram. I'm not sure how helpful it will be since it is specific to what I taught this trimester - but if you can use it, it's yours.

If you haven't entered my Pay it Forward giveaway, which I'm pretty sure you haven't since only 2 people have {insert really sad face here} if you could take a moment to do that, that would be great. When you enter, you have an opportunity to give a shout out to a charity that is near and dear to your heart. You also have a chance to win 50 dollars for that charity - it's all in the name of paying it forward. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE consider entering. It's super easy too - you get one entry by sharing the name of our charity in a comment and another entry if you give someone a hug! Seriously....it doesn't get much easier than that! Enter {here}.
Alrighty - time to make the mashed potatoes. HA! I'm totally kidding. My husband does that. Time to go see if I can lick the bowl...
