Celebrating the Spring in Our Step Linky & Giveaway!!



 
 
Wow, I definitely need a spring in my step! It is hard to believe that all of my colleagues are beginning their 2 week, much deserved, definitely needed SPRING BREAK!!! I feel like I have been on a spring break for months recuperating from my November surgery. I miss my colleague, students and the curriculum... I know, call me CRAZY!! I am grateful for the opportunity to celebrate Spring with you, courtesy of some pretty amazing women!!  Are you ready for spring?  Join us on this awesome hop as we celebrate everything spring brings with it!
 
 
 
While spring only officially sprung up a few days ago, my house has been like spring since January! I am blessed to live in California now where it is warm 90% of the time.  I see others pictures of snow filled backyards and I can only barely remember growing up in Tennessee with cold, frozen toes on snow days!  I definitely remember the great times playing in it, but can't remember how much all of the adults dreaded snow days and no school!! Currently, I have these beauties in multiple colors throughout my house as I enjoy my 70 plus days!  Three days this week it was close to 90.. gasp!!
 
 
 
 


Spring has always been about baseball!!! Since my son was 4 he has played and now that he will be 24 this week, he is still playing!! Finishing up senior season, but still out there swinging that bat.  We hope he continues to play forever.  When he was 4, he slept with his entire uniform on the night before the game, including hat and cleats! It was a riot! And now, his hair is what he says the fans love.. boys!! And as it is with every spring, I simply can NOT wait to see my boy play ball soon!!
 
 

 
 
 

 
 
My students love technology!  I can't believe how much more writing I get from them when they are typing it onto an ipad or sending it via email to me! My Spring QR Code Writing Cube gives your students 6 topics to choose from to write about spring!
 
 
 
 


What better way to enjoy spring break than with a great book?  And all great books need a way to mark the spot when you pick it back up from a dip in the pool, ocean, or lake, from a game at the park, or a stroll through a museum. FREE Spring Into a Good Book is just a click away!
Thanks for swinging by and sharing your SPRING with me!! Keep the spring in your step at the next stop!

  2. Your bookmarks are super cute! I can't wait until it starts to feel like spring for us. (We are still having temps in the 30s and 40s.)

    1. Thank you! Hoping your spring weather has finally popped in! Living in California near the coast, we have random weather all of the time, except for snow! When I first moved here it was in early July... couldn't believe I couldn't wait until the movers arrived with my socks and sweatshirts!! I froze that first summer getting acclimated!
