What I'm Loving Right Now (9)

It's been a while since I've done one of these!
Here I am, bringing it back.

Can't Stop The Feeling--I LOVE this song. If you don't, well, the only explanation must be that you haven't heard it yet!

Friends--I am officially obsessed with this show.  I know, I'm behind the times--by many, many, many years. But as they say, better late than never. It's such a fun show and I just love them all.

DonorsChoose--I love this site. I have used it for 3 projects now for my classroom and now, I'm working on my 4th. I am working towards getting some theme boxes for my classroom. Follow this link (here) and read more about it! I am excited at the prospect of having all of these boxes and books for my classroom.

Yerba Mate Tea--Jason and I have found our new favorite tea. You can read all about the benefits here. If you're interested, you can get it from Kroger and we've seen it at Rainbow as well.

The crazy beautiful sunset's we've been having--our backyard has the best view of the sunsets. Sorry in advance if I over do it on the sunset pictures, I personally can't get enough!



Sarah's Bachelorette Trip--2 weekends ago I went to the beach and spend the weekend celebrating my friend Sarah and her upcoming wedding! We had the best time--so much sun, laughing, celebrating, and fun was had. Come on October 22nd!


My class this year--I have such a sweet class this year. There's a lot of them (11 to be exact) but they are so much fun. I am looking forward to a really wonderful school year!

Moses--my stud of a nephew puppy. This guy is the cutest, biggest, fluffiest, best little thing there is. Just look for yourself...


Buddha's Brew Kombucha--tried this for the first time today and it was SO GOOD. We found it at Rainbow Grocery. It's the only place I've seen it, but then again, I haven't been looking until today. We tried the "tart cherry with melon"--amazing. 

The fact that I see Lauren Daigle in concert in less than a month--I am so excited about this! Oh, and I am BEYOND THRILLED that she has a CHRISTMAS album coming out!

Tie dying--I love it and it's been a minute since I've done it. I bought a kit a few weekends ago and just went to town on some white shirts. so. much. fun. 

Until next time...

Mexican, Margaritas, & My Man

4 years ago, I was just beginning my first year of teaching and I had my first truly rough day with a student.  I was venting about my terrible day to Jason and told him that it was almost a "margarita day"--well, he took that and ran with it and asked me out for a margarita at Papitos. To say that I've never been more nervous in my life than when I saw that message would be a huge understatement. On our way to eat today, I was telling him that I remember having the biggest butterflies I've ever had in my life when I told him I'd meet him. I mean, look at him--he's such a handsome man--and there it was...I was going to meet up with him. Long story short, we had no idea exactly what those drinks would turn in to (although, Jason says he already knew at that point). 6 months later we were engaged and another 8 months later we were married! 
For 4 years now, we've made it a point to go to Papitos this day and reminisce about that night where it all "officially" began.
