Five for Friday {Linky Party...June 20}



What a week....here we go!

My husband has a minor, ok huge fear of storms (shh!). Lets just say when a storm is a brewin' we know about it at least a week in advance. Due to the way our house is positioned on our lot and the proximity to our neighbors any bit of wind sounds like an F5 tornado whipping through. In hopes to get any sleep we head on over to our nana and papa's house and hangout. I know, it sounds funny but heck, free food, good conversations and a good nights sleep...I'll take it! Oh and how can I forget, we get to spend time with this cutie!


During my stay at nana and papas I had some time to do the things my lovely para professionals usually take care of for me. I colored, cut and mounted about 12 file folder games. They are ready to be laminated. I just love these, especially for students to take back to their general education classroom to work on independently. 


I was also able to get caught up on cutting some laminate....I am sure I laminated these back in March! Check out my fancy scissors. I LOVE them!


This technically happened a few weeks ago but... as a kick off to summer my girlfriends (Third in Hollywood, Dashing Dish and Dayna Mae Photography) and our hubbies got together for a BBQ, Minute to Win It showdown and a bonfire. This was so much fun! 

                                                 


 
Finally, I found my favorite gum on sale for $0.30 a pack at Target. I had to buy five....then my hubby came home with 5 more. I just love him :)

Make sure to hop back over to the Linky Party to check out everyone else's 5 for Friday!

  1. Tell me about your fancy scissors! Though I am sadly headed out of the special ed world, I still have a ton on laminating to do for my new classroom and my regular scissors are just losing their touch!

    1. They are literally the best scissors ever. I don't even know how to use regualr scissors anymore lol. I love that you can grip them with your hand rather than just your fingers. And they glide so easily. Good luck with your new teaching adventure. I am sure it will be great! Link for the scissors :)

  3. I am petrified of storms...especially lightning storms. My heart beats faster and I have to hide indoors. I had a bad experience as a child though...so that's my excuse.
    The link is an html code. Click on this link( http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_links.asp) scroll down to where it says "Example". That should help you. Just change out the website to your blogger address. Hope this helps!

    1. Isn't she the cutest...we have cats so she is just about the same size as them, perfect for cuddling. Having people to help cut laminate is the best. My hubby does a lot of awesome things for me but he will not cut laminate lol. Here is the link for the scissors;
