January 17, 2014 by ·

Wow. Now I remember what waking up at 6 a.m. and working for a full week feels like. Talk about a shock to the system. Even though my beauty sleep has suffered, we have been doing all kinds of great things since we’ve been back. Isn’t is amazing how much they “grow up” over the […]

We got back from break and it was like addition was a foreign language. Last week, we had a bit of an intervention. I have been using these for the past couple of years. Please excuse the marks all over them because they have had a bit of love. This is the addition side.  It’s […]

Teachers of Instagram Linky Party!

December 30, 2013 by ·

This week is my “blogiversary” and I to be honest, I wanted to think of a way to celebrate without having to do a crazy giveaway! I love doing giveaways. However, the giveaway happened this weekend at our Nashville Blogger Meetup. While we were all together, we chatted about how much we all love Instagram. […]
