Five on Friday-End of Summer

Well friends, the summer is just slipping right on by! When I say it has gone fast, it has been a blink of an eye!! We have definitely made the most of it and soaked in as much of summer as possible. Today, I'm linking up with Darci once again for this fabulous link up and having a hard time believing that I go back to school NEXT WEEK!! 

One: I teach part-time and it's time to get ready for a new school year...Even though I'm sad to say goodbye to days where we had no agenda and could spend all day everyday with the babes, I always feel the excitement of a new school year. It's a brand new start, freshly sharpened pencils, new school clothes, new friends, etc. I have ALWAYS loved school (I know, I know...) Here's to a great new year to everyone! 

Two: To say I'm excited about Lily Caroline's 1st birthday is an understatement! I have obsessed thoughtfully planned out her special celebration! Invitations have been ordered, party attire has been ordered, gifts are bought, and it is 3 MONTHS AWAY!! My mom has been helped me obsess plan too! She ordered her party dress for her. I almost cried when it came this week. It is beautiful just like this baby girl...Although from the looks of it, she's not too excited! I'll blame her first toothy that is trying to poke in! 



Three: I made this Creamy Caprese Quinoa dish this week and it didn't disappoint! Despite all the cheese, it had to be healthy because it is quinoa, right? :)



Four: Owen enjoyed his last "Fun Day" this week! I stayed with him and had so much fun watching him play with his friends!


Five: After Water Day, I treated my boy to our favorite lunch spot, the Pickwick! Since it was our end of summer date, we just had to have a milkshake!! 




Happy weekend!!

  2. I love back to school! My class aren't in until September 4th, but I'll be in from the 19th to set up. My classroom has just been refurbished, I'm so excited to see it!

  3. I love the idea of working part-time. I currently teach full-time, but I have heard of many teachers in surrounding counties doing part-time things once they become moms. Sounds like the perfect balance to me. :)

  4. Oh that picture is just priceless!!! what a doll! And I'm so glad I'm not the only one full-blown-obsessing about 1st birthday parties! I can't wait to see what you put together in a few months! :)

    Oh and if it has quinoa in the name, it's healthy in my book!
