Chicka Chicka Boom Boom

Today was my third day of having a lot of kids absent. I joked around on my last post about it, but I really do hate that they are sick. I have to be honest though... it has been WONDERFUL only having 14 or 15 kids.  Yesterday would have been/ was (not sure how you word that) G.W.'s birthday which made me a little bit sad. I talked to his daughter for about an hour last night and felt a lot better. I think talking with me made her feel  a little better too... at least she said it did.

As promised, here are the after pictures of my classroom. It is a work in progress, but I feel like it is finally starting to come together.

 

The coconuts have names on them.

 

The beach scene that keeps me sane. 

 

25 days of school and I just now got started organizing the books. I have a long way to go, but am pretty pleased so far. 

Okay, enough of that. The husband is at the GA Tech game so here I am watching Friends/grading papers/wishing I had a Diet Dr. Pepper. I really can't wait for the weekend! I don't really even have any huge plans. I think we might have a date night tomorrow night which will be fun. There are a lot of fun restaurants around here that we need to try out. :)
