Winners and an Owl Birthday Freebie!

I'm sorry it took me so long to let you know the winners! Here they are:


Congratulations to Jennifer and Ashley. I will email you soon! :)

I think July moved a little too quickly, what about you? It can slow down now!
It's a rainy day today, which we actually need so I don't mind, so I think I will do a little organizing. Really, it might happen ...

Here is a freebie for you...

They are owl birthday pencil holders. Yes, I'm still on a bit of an owl kick. Click on the pic to grab it! Enjoy!


Now, what to organize, where to start...

Owls, Cheron and Random...

Hi everyone! I wish I could blog more often. I have good intentions, but especially in the summer, it's just hard. I do still think about school, however. I've already seen some back to school sales, but I made myself stay away! (For at least a little longer!)
I've been working on a few things for TPT. There are so many stinkin' cute owls out there, it makes me want to change my classroom theme! I finished this Owl Activity Pack today. Click on the pic to check it out on TPT.


I also made a Chevron theme pack. Click on the pic below if you'd like to take a peek!


In other news, I watched The Men Tell All and I really think Sean might be the next Bachelor, after Roberto of course! I also wonder if a guy like Kalon can be for real?
I wasn't feeling well earlier this week, so I was watching some of our recorded shows, and I came across one that my hubby watches. It's called Impractical Jokers. It has these 4 guy friends and they have to do really embarassing things. It was actually pretty funny. Really immature and ridiculous, but it made me laugh and that's what I needed! (I also needed some Reese's peanut butter cups. I may or may not have eaten half a bag.)

Now here is a freebie for you! I made these little owl treat labels because I'm in love with owls right now! I think they would be perfect for the beginning of the year. Click on the first picture to grab the freebie!



The first one was hole punched with ribbon put through it - that was for you, Jaime. She always makes everything super cute. The second one was more like what I might do, a staple through a bag. :)

My hubby and I were looking for funny movies to buy/rent. What is your favorite funny movie? Write it in a comment below along with your email and I will randomly pick two people to win the Owl and Chevron items from TPT!

Beginning of the Year Resource Book

I was in Barnes & Noble the other day. What was I looking for? Back to school books! I just can't get school off the brain. I am always looking for new ideas! I was thinking that everyone else is as well. So, my friend Jaime thought a little resource book might be a great idea. Here's where I need your help. I would like to compile a list of the best back to school ideas and make a freebie for TPT. It could be an idea for the first day, open house, etc. Your choice!
If you have a (K-2) new or great idea,(or ideas), that you would like to include in the resource book, please e-mail me at andreafirst77@gmail.com
If you leave the link to your store or blog in the email, I will include it with your idea.
Please email me by next Monday, the 16th. Thanks for your help!

If you're looking for a cute back to school treat idea, Jaime and I made these last year and our kiddos loved them! Click on the picture below to go to her blog post.


The weather has been pretty crazy here in MI. Many people, including me, lost power last week because of storms. It's amazing what you take for granted! I'm working on some stuff for TPT and even though I have more time, I keep finding other things to work on. I start on one thing and then start another and another...but have yet to finish much. I'll get there! :)
