We Have A Barn!

 It is completed!  My hubby is wonderful!  On Monday, when I got home from the chiropractor and running errands, my sweet hubby had it already painted for me.  He could have done a number of things on this day off, but he finished this up for me so I wouldn't have to get out in the hot garage to paint.  I just love him!
Today, I met my former teammates {two of which I have worked with for 14 years and 7 years, respectively} for lunch.  I'm excited to be moving to second grade this year, but I am sure gonna miss these two!  They are the BEST teammates and friends ever!  We had a nice time, and vowed to do this often!  We are too good of friends not to, and I know we will!

Tomorrow...is my first day of the 2012-2013 school year!  
Yep, you read that right...
I start back TOMORROW!  

So, I'm enjoying this tonight.  :)

Kiddos start next Wed.  I can't believe summer is over and the new school year is upon us...but I'm also excited to start a new year...in a new grade.  
So, when do you start back???  
I hope you enjoy the rest of your summer!
Many Blessings,

P.S.  Be watching for some freebie Back To School graphics soon!

    Wow! I can't believe you start so early! It's great that you have a whole week without the kids. We start on August 20th and the kids start on the 22nd.

    The barn looks great!

    I start back officially on August 13th and the kids come back on the 20th. It's sneaking up on me but I'm excited because I am returning to kindergarten after 2 years in 4th grade. Good luck this school year!

    Oh my heck, that barn it too cute! I start on the 20th and the students come on the 22nd. Kinders always start late (Fri. Aug.24th), so my little one will just have to try to be patient (LOL). She's super excited about starting Kindergarten!
