Thank You Teachers

It is so hard for me to believe that I now have a 2nd grader and a Kindergartner...the last day of school has arrived!!! We have had a wonderful year filled with great teachers so of course we wanted to make them something special to thank them for all their hard work this year.I ran across the neatest website some months ago and after playing around with it a little I thought it would be perfect for a teacher gift.

All you have to do is type in the words you want to be in your word cloud and it creates it for you. The more you type a word the bigger the word appears. So I sat down and went to work. I typed in each kids name in the class, the school name, the year, the teacher's name and a few other words like learn, play, friends and I printed it out on card stock and framed it. Ta da...what a wonderful keepsake for a teacher to remember the year! Hope everyone has a WONDERFUL summer!


I failed to get a picture of Conner's...I guess you can't remember everything!

Conner's 7th Birthday Shark Party

We had a wonderful time at Conner's 7th birthday party. Pizza, cupcakes, ice cream, and swimming with all your friends...does it get any better than that?! Not according to Conner! He said "Mom, that was the BEST party ever!"
