Five for Friday ~ November 20

Happy Friday!  We have made it!!  It is the last day before Thanksgiving Break!!

I started my week sitting in front of my fireplace!  I love that it is getting cooler, and that I get to use this part of my house now!!

Today I am thankful for a full weekend with my sweet babies! I'm also thankful they took a nap and I was able to lay by the fire this afternoon! #teachersfollowteachers #teachersofinstagram #iteachthird #mrs3rdgrade #toddleryears

We packed boxes for Operation Christmas Child this week at school!  This is an awesome organization to donate to because they send these boxes to children around the world who would not otherwise receive a gift.  It was awesome to see our students give so generously and be excited to pack the boxes!!  This is just a small pile of the boxes that we sent out!!

We packed Operation Christmaschild boxes at school today!! Can't wait to hear how many we packed!! #teachersfollowteachers #teachersofinstagram #iteachthird #mrs3rdgrade #giveback
