Summer Things...

I have loved my summer and I have been busy! I just wanted to share a couple of things that I did this summer. First, I painted three pictures to hang in my dining room. I have been working on them for a while and finally finished. We have a pretty big blank wall in our dining room and I could not find the perfect piece for it. So, I made one myself! And here it is...

I also went shopping with my mother-in-law at several thrift stores in the area.  I got a great owl that looks like Hedwig from Harry Potter for my classroom.  My kids will love him!  I also found the cutest little rocking chair for $20.  I could not resist and I bought it.  When I brought it home, I put it in the living room so that I could show Kevin when he got home.  I didn't know that my little rocking chair would be such a hit!  My cats loved it and even had a little squabble over who was going to get to sit in it!
