Valentine's Day...a little late

These weeks are just flying by!

I am still LOVING my student teaching. My little first graders are so precious.

And my teacher? I can't say enough wonderful things about her.

So so blessed to be where I am.

Here's a little recap of February:

Valentine's Day is thee absolute best as a teacher.

You get loaded down with chocolates and cards and flowers.

Such a good way to put a smile on my face!

And I can't even begin to tell you the amount of sugar we had in the room.

#yummm

~part of my load~

How cute are these?!

I found the cutest Valentine's Day book at Target for $3.

It's the same type of rhyme as "Twas the Night Before Christmas".

The kids loved it.

We did some really fun activities that day as well.

You have to have Candy Hearts on Valentine's Day:

And we measured mustaches. I found this on Teachers Pay Teachers for free!

They had so much fun with this.

On a different note, I got a few new things that I'm currently obsessed with.

{I'm going to show you pictures but just know that this is weird for me.

I don't think I've ever shared selfies...not really my thing. Also excuse the blurriness. 

That's what happens when you use an iPod instead of a real camera.}

For starters, I got a pleather peplum shirt.

If that isn't awesome I don't know what is.

I also scored this dress from Old Navy for only $10!

Love it when I find cheap teacher clothes.

{yes...I refer to some clothes as teacher clothes}

I'll be back later to share the most fun activity I've ever done in school.

We're still in the process of putting up our work so I'll wait until I have good pictures.

Trust me you won't want to miss it.

It involves aliens.

Happy Sunday!

Gimme those clothes

Wow it has been quite the week! I have a lot of catch-up to do over here.

But for today, I'm being super lazy.

Meaning I'm watching One Tree Hill

Coloring (yes, i'm five.)

Crafting

And online shopping.

By now you probably know that I'm teaching.

Which means I need a lot of cute, appropriate clothes to wear to school.

{even though i would rather just wear sweats}

I haven't looked at Shabby Apple in a while, but since I'm doing nothing today, I decided to look again.

Oh.my.word y'all. They have such great stuff.

Especially for teachers.

I'm loving the retro looks.

These are some of my current faves:

Clearly I have an obsession with red and black.

Product of my lifelong love for Georgia Bulldogs.

I wouldn't mind having any of these in my closet.

Hope you all had a wonderful week!

My semester is slowly dying down so hopefully I can catch up soon!

Happy weekend folks!

Shopaholic

I'm not going to lie...I love shopping. Although I'm not sure where I got it from because my mom abhors shopping. I could do it all day everyday. Unfortunately, I don't have the money to do that (who does?!).

The good thing about my shopping habit is that I get in "moods." Meaning I'll shop for a couple of days, and then won't shop for months. This week I have been in a shopping mood and I'm going to show you what I got!

I went to Rack Room last Saturday and bought two pairs of boots. They were BOGO 50% off so I bought a pair in brown and a pair in black. I have been looking for boots like this for almost two years so I'm so stinking excited about these! It's hard to find shoes when you wear an 11...

Tonight, I went to the Tanger Outlets in Commerce. At J.Crew, I got this super comfy shirt that will be perfect for fall.

Then I went to Gap where I found this lovely red skirt that will be making an appearance at a UGA game. Go Dawgs!! (PS I cannot wait for college football to start!) Sadly I couldn't find it online. It's similar to this skirt, but with small white polka dots.

{Don't you love how I threw good ol' LC in there? I just can't get enough.}

And my last purchase was a plain white button-down from Polo. I've been meaning to get one for a while but am just now getting around to it. The only thing I now "need" to complete my shopping spree is some skinny(ish) black jeans. Anyone have any suggestions?? I'd love some help!
