So much to do..

Holy moly!
Last week we went to Relay for Life in Eugene - it was so emotional and beautiful. I'm glad I took the weekend off my classroom to go to it!
Now we are back home and I am on a roll in my room. Here is what my parents and I have done since my last post.

About a month ago, my dad made this little milk crate chairs for me. My mom and I upholstered them and added cushions - they are too cute! The tops lift off for storage. I'm planning on using these for my kidney reading table.

I went crazy at Class E Professor and bought borders, nameplates, stickers, incentive charts..etc. I spent a good hour in there debating over colors of borders..
 My pinterest inspired idea! I found jumbo stretchy book covers and reversed one side to stick over the chair and the other side is a pouch. I bought 22 of them for 97 cents a pop. I thought it was a steal!
They could hold heavy books, but I think I'll have my kiddos put their lightweight folders in there. That way 1 - it doesn't topple over and 2 - they cant say they can't find it!

Worlds cutest clock.
That's all.
 My mom made these curtains - aren't they the cutest?!? I love how symmetrical and colorful they are. They cover up all the clutter of books and games that looked ugly. I couldn't be more happy with how they turned out.
 FINALLY a bulletin board is semi finished! The background is black fleece.. this wall was a chalkboard but my crafty dad made a wooden *thing* to go over the chalkboard and under the fleece so I would be able to staple and pin my calendar and etc on top of it. I don't know how I could do this without my handyman of a father.


The birthday board!
Obviously..its not finished, but I will put the months up there and write the kids names on little celebrating cupcakes under their respective month.
More to come on this guy..its a work in progress right now.





 I added a blue border and put my voice levels up here..
I am not sure I like them there as of this moment. I think I might mat them? There is something about it that I am unsure of.. I just don't know what!
 I still have so much to do but I am more excited than ever. I got my roster and know my kids names so it seems so real now!
Next on my list..job chart and label everything!
Loves.
