I cannot believe I didn't think of that!! We have a "bird area" by the Rain Garden but of course, we should have another one. Or two, or ten)

I am so glad that you are jumping back in. BTDT with the dried-up creativity flow and I understand how much of a struggle that can be. And just think-- tomorrow, July 1, we have a brand new set of challenges in case we get stuck again. :D

As soon as you can legally adopt me, I'll be there! :p best feeling ever- seeing your kids so excited and happy! The pizza sounds amazing--light and fresh. I make flatbreads with lemon ricotta and roasted broccoli. Next time I might have to try it with the bean sprouts and corn. I doubt my...

Good morning!! Who else is tired today? I had such a terrible time sleeping last night. I was awake, tossed and turned, fell asleep, and awake again a half hour later. Over and over from 1 am to when I gave up at 5. I worked my butt off yesterday. Nothing like cleaning my house or anything, it...

They are soooo precious!!! I think that is true love for them both ♥ I'm so happy you tried ceramics even if you were nervous at first. These are cute and would bring me joy every time I saw them. PS: Your flowers are gorgeous too!

They are gorgeous!! What a fantastic idea. I wonder if we have any of that air-dry clay in the supply room... If not, I know what I can ask for :D

It seems like Homeschool pods and microschools are becoming more and more popular. With so many options for non-traditional learning, I am thrilled that I am part of it. Even though I have my NJ teacher's certificate, I never had any desire to go into public schools. When I was student teaching...

Yay! I loved this kit and the June CP palette and am so stoked that you used it! I love the woman with the flowers in her head (reminds me of myself in a way LOL) and the colors and word arts are amazing!!

When I saw that kit in the shop, I was hoping that someone would use it for this challenge! The colors are perfect!

Thank you!! I hung up curtains on the bottom back windows just so it looked cozy but I love all of the light and the views, so didn't want to put up the rest. ♥

I know, I love it too but it is soooo invasive. :bawling:I planted some at my house years ago before I knew about invasives and am trying to rip out as much as possible. Got your PM ♥ Scott said the same thing, he initially thought I was talking about the tiny camping/rental cabins. I can't...

TY! And yes, it's nice and spacious. I taught in classrooms that were *much* smaller than this. We have a ton of milkweed near the front parking and I'll ask if I can dig some up for the front. I have some spiderwort and bee balm at home that are ready to be split which would also be good...

Thank you all for the b-day wishes!! I know nothing about Nascar or any of those races, but it sounds like a super fun and exciting night! DS and the kids must have been over the moon, especially being able to get autographs and merch. How was 80s Movie Trivia? :bowdown: I was thrilled that I...

Happy weekend, lOvelies! How are you all doing? Having a great weekend, for sure! I have no major plans myself, but my to-do list is filled with a wide variety of tasks. I worked my butt off cleaning the cabin yesterday. I shared some pics in this thread if you want to see: My new "classroom!"...

I am super excited about my new teaching space and have to share it with you. I am an Environmental Educator at a local ecology center. In my previous (pre-having kids) life, I was a PreK teacher so this job is better than perfect for me. ♥ I do a little of everything at the Center, but my main...

Wow, that paper is so amazing, I love all of the layers and textures too!

Love the "from behind" photo and your page is awesome, I adore that stitched border!

Thank you so much! My parents are really happy for me. I clean houses on the side and that is not fulfilling work at all. They always knew I was born to be a teacher since I was a kid myself. And loved nature- they were telling Scott a story when I went camping with friends of theirs when I was...
