five for friday and giveaway winner!

I'll be fast and furious today! I have a talent show to prep for...insert pain in stomach here!
Not a bad week for this teacher! We finished up weather and will be starting sound next week! That's the hardest unit to teach! Ugh! Luckily I have this little baby up my sleeve! And I'm guessing it's tough for others too because this has become one of my top sellers!

It definitely makes my life a little easier!

I love weather and I tried out a new snack this week to finish out the unit. Cause food makes learning permanent, right!? haha!

and I just got this posted a few days ago! I used several of the passages to intro some new concepts before experimenting with them! And the notebooking templates were a perfect assessment!

 I used a writing template from Mrs. Cupcake's Whimsical Weather unit and a story frame from Traci Claussen's Fabulous Weather unit to make these! They write about what they would like it to rain and drew it in the clouds! I love how they turned out! We also made the cloud recipe with our snack! I'm still working on poufing those chef hats though!

I got two beautiful packages in the mail! I got my mystery box from Katie! and a little melonheadz addicts surprise from Nikki! Love them!

and if you don't follow me on Instagram @tattooedteacherblog ...then you may not know I'm a new-ish aunt! yay!

well, that obviously calls for a new Alex and Ani bangle! Thanks for having a baby sis!

happy friday! and I also need to announce the winner of my giveaway! I love reading your comments and I really read each and every one of them! Comments are few and far between on blogs these days with instagram and facebook, so I love them!

and you still have a few hours to squeeze in some shopping! 

5 for friday on friday!

Until today, I had a pretty easy peasy week
jury duty Monday and Tuesday
Wednesday work...
Thursday am meeting at the district office with the pm off
then today my kids had the day off

so here's a little randomness from my week as I link up with Kacey again!

I'd have more to show, but Wednesday was the only day with the kiddos and that was plenty!
I left Hope's rabbit research for them to work on all week.
Wednesday we had a little fiction fun with Easter Bunny Day!

bunny baskets!

5. I may be the only person alive who does not like Peeps, but I love making these!

We use dessert cups, 

whip cream, 

and supposed to have an egg candy or two, 

but I lost them!

My only rule is that the recipe must be written in order to make it.
Two kids got to watch us make them.
Yes, I am that mean.

4. What's inside the Easter bunny's workshop?

these turned out so great! 

I wish I could put pictures of all of them! 

I love when they think outside the box! 

If you like, this activity is part of my Down the Bunny Hole pack {on sale this weekend!}

3. Saturday was middle Lamb's 8th birthday.
As you can see he's a Harry Potter fan and likes to garden. He probably has the strangest interests for a kid his age, but I love that about him! He's very random like his mom! Those cupcakes were amazing-my friend Petie made them!

welcome spring...

1. My Spring Break is finally here y'all!

I might've had pretty much the whole week off, but it's official now!

I plan to craft, work on finishing up 3 packs {they are killing me!}, and NOT eat any chocolate or fries. I have not had either since Monday. This is huge. But I can do it! At least til my b0day in late April! And to celebrate, I'm having a Spring Cleaning sale this weekend!

So clean out those carts and wishlists!!
