So, after being inspired by a recent boost in sales (meaning I've sold three THREE!!! copies of my science TEKS objectives!), I created a new product! And you guessed it! It's chevron!<br />

This post is all about our move! So the Friday night before we moved (as in, over a week ago...) we went out with friends for dinner at one of my favorite downtown Lubbock restaurants, and then to the Piano Bar.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

That's right!! Engaged at last! OH, HAPPY DAY! After one year of great friendship and then three years of dating, we are getting MARRIED! I love this man, he is my best friend and I can't wait to plan a wedding while teaching my first year! ;)<br />

Our new townhouse. This is actually where I grew up! So strange living here as an adult. If you read my last post, you know we had a flood. Well, our house should be completely fixed by the end of the month. So right now we're just trying to keep our stuff out of the way of contractors. It's a pain, but we're practicing our lifeskill of patience. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, my life is falling into place. I will start working on my classroom on Sunday and I will definitely be posting classroom makeover pictures! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Have a great weekend! </div>

<br />
The townhouse we are moving into (in less than a week!) was left, water running, sink blocked, for a full seven days. Oh friends, I wish I was kidding. My townhouse went from needing a little TLC to needing renovation. In my mom's words, "The walls are squishy." Awesome. AWESOME! Silver lining (I'm working on improving my attitude...) we get to help my mom pick new cabinets and we get a lot of new flooring and painting that will be covered by insurance.<br />
<br />
As if that wasn't enough stress on top of moving, I woke up the next morning to a swollen and green throat. I have strep for the first time in my life. So, I've been home sleeping and medicating the last two days. Missing out on my precious last days as the YWCA curriculum director.<br />
<br />
What a week! Between deep sleeps I'm trying to pack a box here or there. But once I move I'll be able to post before and after pictures of my new (slightly wet) home and (hopefully dry) classroom!<br />
<br />

It's really intimidating to post something, especially for sale, on TPT. But I know that you often get the biggest reward from the things that scare you the most...so <i>bring it on</i>. :) </div>

<div>
Hopefully I will finish the other subjects tomorrow night! </div>

I thought I liked these gel sticker strips, but for some reason this set is not lasting. However, I love the red with the leopard hearts. :) The thing I do love about the stickers is that it gives me the freedom to do a little fancy nail art aka the hearts! :)</div>

This was one of two student work displays I concocted while student teaching. The cloud says: "Our Class Garden: I can identify the parts of a plant." So these precious flowers are made from handprints, and then there are tiny labels to identify the parts of the plant. You can't really see the roots, but trust me, they were precious! </div>

These little guys were probably my favorite thing I made this fall. I made one little zombie/skeleton man for each of my coworkers/bosses. Right after snapping this picture, I walked out of the room for <i>two</i> seconds and I came back to Molly licking their feet. ALL of my little cookies were ruined. So my boyfriend and I spent the evening snacking on their heads. HA Talk about creepy. :) </div>

Last but not least, these are two of my favorite people. The guy creeping in the back is my boyfriend ;) and my best friend Alex is on the right. She was my (potluck) freshman year roommate and we've been best friends ever since! </div>

Is anyone else ready for fall and pumpkin spiced lattes?! Thanks to Hobby Lobby setting up their Christmas section, I've even found myself humming "Joy to the World." :) Bring on the cooler weather! (And the students, I cannot wait to meet my first class!)</div>

I love these apples from <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Spotted-Apples-FREEBIE-Graphics-for-Commercial-Use-710406" target="_blank">Ashley Hughes</a> and the great fonts from <a href="http://msthirdgrade.blogspot.jp/2013/03/fonts-freebie.html" target="_blank">Ms. Third Grade</a>!<br />With these two great resources, I have created these Wish List Apples. There are several small apples, and each one contains one wish list item for the classroom. Don't see the items you want donated to your classroom? No problem! I'll make apples for you if you shoot me an email with the items you want.<br /><br />So I have to admit that I'm a little terrified about this whole thing. But hey! It's a marathon, not a race...right? So now my first product is out on it's own in TPT world. Hopefully it's something you can use and LOVE...and leave feedback on? ;)<br />Happy Fourth of July!<br />

Hooray! I graduated! Actually, I graduated over a month ago. But I love this picture! The four years I've spent in Lubbock at Texas Tech have been amazing! I wouldn't change them for the world. I can't wait to get all of my students on the Tech bandwagon. :) Guns up y'all! This next picture is the beautiful (and yummy!) cake my boyfriend's mom ordered for me. It was so awesome...I seriously felt like I was on Ace of Cakes or something! ;)<br />

This is my baby!!! I am <i>so</i> thankful to not have human children at this point in my life, but this sweet <i>(looking)</i> baby is my Molly. She is a mess! But she owns my heart. In this picture she's sitting between my knees in the floor board of the front seat. Her sister, Gigi, my boyfriend's dog, was in the back. Well, they <i>LOVE</i> to play and Molly couldn't handle that Gigi wouldn't play with her in the backseat....so she kept barking. <i>And barking</i>. After about 20 minutes of barking I pulled her up to sit next to me. Needless to say, it was a <i>L O N G</i> car ride.<br />

This last picture is of my lunch box! I'm so excited. Not only do I think it's beyond fabulous, it was also CHEAP! Under $10 y'all! You can't beat that!<br />
<br />
Happy Saturday!<br />

<br />
I got information about getting a custom blog design, which I still want. But with the recent budget discussions with the boyfriend, it looks like that will have to wait. (BOO!)<br />
<br />
I couldn't handle how sad looking it was...so I made a new banner and added a background.<br />
<br />
I used clip art and digital paper from <a href="http://thewizardofboz.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Wizard of Boz</a>, it's such a precious set and it is F-R-E-E! You can download it <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Digital-Paper-and-Clipart-Rustic-Colors-Free-for-Personal-or-Commercial-Use-613744" target="_blank">HERE!</a><br />
<br />
Next goal: Finish my "I can..." TEKS statements and get them up on TPT...and create a signature...I'm sure there's some tutorial somewhere....<br />
<br />
Goodnight sweet bloggers!<br />
<br />

Joining in on <a href="http://doodlebugsteaching.blogspot.com/2013/06/five-for-friday-linky-party-june-28th.html" target="_blank">Five for Friday</a>! This is my very first linky party <strike>and I really have no idea what I'm doing. But</strike> Fake it 'till you make it! Right? <i>Right?! </i><br />
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
1. I am so whiney. I mean, I'm always a <i>little</i> whiney, but right now I'm in full on three year old mode. I had my wisdom teeth out, and between all the medicine and the fact that my teeth were ripped out of my mouth, I am sick AND in pain. (Too much pain and too sick to work...but not enough to keep me from my computer...Sorry I'm not sorry.) </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
2. I am working on my very first TPT product! Seriously y'all, I haven't even upgraded to a seller account yet. But I desperately want to follow the footsteps of the amazing bloggers I've followed for a couple years now, so I've got to get started. :) I'm making "I can..." statements based off of the TEKS for my classroom. During student teaching we used the TAP rubric and this was one of my weakest points. I do think it's important that students understand my objectives for them. Sooooo....keep your eyes peeled for my first products! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
3. So far these pain meds have caused me to shop A LOT on TPT. I bought (<i>in my defense they were ALL on sale!):</i></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Setting-Up-Readers-Workshop-A-Full-Implementation-Plan-430138" target="_blank">Setting Up Reader's Workshop: A Full Implementation Plan</a><i> By Hope King-- </i>I have been eyeing this since she first posted it and now that I have my own classroom (saying that never gets old!) I have a reason to buy it! </li>
<li><span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Reward-Coupons-55-Different-Coupons-for-Classroom-Management-282691" target="_blank">Reward Coupons-55 Different Coupons for Classroom Management!</a> <i>By Mel D-- </i>Another thing I have been wishing for... and I can't wait to get my hands on the second set! And y'all, Mel is AH-MAZING! There was one tiny typo, and she fixed it within the day! </span></li>
<li><a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/A-Teachers-Plan-Book-Editable-744617" target="_blank">A Teacher's Plan Book {Editable!}</a> <i>By The Teacher Wife-- </i>Okay so I bought this a literal hour after I got home from the dentist, so I'm pretty sure the sedatives made this purchase. lol <i>BUT</i> I am excited to have these planning pages/organization pages. </li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
4. I absolutely love all the cute teacher stools all over pinterest, and I have almost bought a stool several times now, they're about $17 at Target and Walmart. BUT I'm moving soon! And it seems silly to buy something big(ish) just before moving. And then I found out we don't get our first pay checks until the end of September (insert budget freak out HERE) and I knew I had to think of something else. Well I have two wooden chairs that I got from my mom that I redid a few years ago (think blue and lime green with precious bright floral fabric...I swear they're precious), and I'm going to use those! One to be my "teacher chair" and the other will probably be in our library. So hopefully I can start that this weekend and post pictures soon. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
5. Clipboards! </div>
<div>
Okay, so apparently every other teacher in Lubbock is decorating clip boards because suddenly Dollar Tree has none. And not just one Dollar Tree y'all, two of them! I'm going bananas! How am I suppose to decorate clipboards if someone else is buying them all. --End Rant Here-- I'm going to stay optimistic and go check again this weekend. :) </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Have a fabulous weekend!</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><i>Let the shopping begin!</i> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">So a few days ago I <i>finally</i> ordered this beauty: </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Sp6bgayArTQ/UbpeAqZJXyI/AAAAAAAAADU/ueMNdzZJfis/s1600/photo+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Sp6bgayArTQ/UbpeAqZJXyI/AAAAAAAAADU/ueMNdzZJfis/s320/photo+1.jpg" width="195" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">It's a chevron Filetastic from Mardel. I found this awesome product on Pinterest, which led me to <a href="http://teacheristatales.blogspot.com/search/label/Classroom%20Organization" target="_blank">this blog</a>. :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">So I went to pick it up and, of course, I had to look around! I ended up getting some borders. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Polka dots for those long bulletin boards at the tops of all of my boards and chevron for the larger boards. I'll do the background of the bulletin boards bright colors so they *POP*. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xEPrG8bMpYg/UbpeFsH1ECI/AAAAAAAAADc/1E4vkbST6n4/s1600/photo+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><img border="0" height="288" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xEPrG8bMpYg/UbpeFsH1ECI/AAAAAAAAADc/1E4vkbST6n4/s320/photo+2.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">And just as I thought it was time to go, I saw this precious border! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zsStI3LB2eY/UbpdxMQcMXI/AAAAAAAAADM/azF0u-gROpg/s1600/photo+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zsStI3LB2eY/UbpdxMQcMXI/AAAAAAAAADM/azF0u-gROpg/s320/photo+3.jpg" width="224" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I'm going to use this for my homework display for "Homeworkopoly" I found the idea (of course!!) on Pinterest from <a href="http://monarchmadness.blogspot.com/2010/09/homeworkopoly.html" target="_blank">this blog</a>. :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I can't wait to get these goodies in my room. I still have <i>six weeks</i> until I move back to Dallas. </span><i><b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">UGH!</span> </b></i></div>
