This is my first "currently" experience!  It makes you realize the what multi-tasking actually is.  And i thought my brain couldn't possibly do more than a couple things at once.

Well here it is.  Is Farley a real person or just cyber-space?  Does anyone really know what time it is?

Plus also...My new friend Staci at Let's Teach Something, gave me a cute little award!  I love that girl!

Chicks and Cheesecake...What a Combo!

Can you tell what a good time we all had at the tri-state meet-up?  I stole this pic from my new Container Store junkie friend Staci, who probably stole it from one of the other fabulous women we met.  Thanks again to Abby and Michelle, and Abby's mom who made the cute cookie pops.  I intended to save mine for my 8 year-old, but accidently devoured it on the way home.  Sorry Roman!  He did however love the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake I brought him.

What's in A Name?

So I found out the today, and the hard way I might add, that my Blog name is very similar to someone else's.  So I had to switch the title a little.  It was supposed to be Happiness and Sunshine in first grade but the url said sunshine n happiness...Can you believe it?  Hang in there.  I promise to get my blogging act together shortly!  Really!

Feel the Love...

I just want to say a HUGE THANKS to Kacey at Doodlebugs.  She has saved my old tired calendar wall with these oh so adorable calendar cards.  She's got new ones every month right on her blog...and free I might add!  Go grab them for yourself.  Do not pass go ...do not collect $200...go get'em!  I make at least 3 sets of them every month.  I use them for sequencing activities, random order for choosing students, and greater than and less than centers!  Then I buy her goodies at TPT and all is right with the world.  Let me know if you can think of other ways to use them!

OMG OMG OMG

I can't believe that I just got back from the tri-state meet-up and I already have 2 followers!!  Thanks Ashley and Katy!  You chicks ROCK! I promise that my blog design will will survive this schizophrenic stage!  Bear with me everybody as I get rollin'. 

We had an incredible afternoon !  Thanks to Abby and Michelle, we Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky girls had a blast.  thanks to everyone for your inspiration...you're the best.
