Birthday Fun!

Birthday Fun:

For anyone that knows me, birthdays have always been my favorite time of year.  From count downs to all week celebrations, I have done it all.  Getting sick has definitely put a different spin on my birthday.  Getting well, has taught me that I need to enjoy every day and live it up!  Today, I turned 37.  It is an odd number, nobody really throws parties at 37. Well…..this year, I threw myself a party.  Here are some fun pictures from my day.

Streamers across the room, fun ones in the doorway to walk through.  I princess table cloth with juice and cookies for the homeroom.  The homeroom also got glow sticks and fun presents.  I know, I know, Best Teacher Ever!

Throughout each class, I told corny birthday fun jokes every 3-4 minutes.  Here were some of my favorites:

Why were the elephants thrown out of the pool?  They couldn't keep their trunks up.

Why didn't the skeleton go to the party?  He had No-body to go with.

What do you get when you cross and bear and a skunk?  Winnie- the Pooh.

Perfect jokes for my 6th graders!

Dollar Store Special, Flower headband.  I pretty much wore this all day long.  Even after I took it off, I felt like I was wearing it. 

Flowers from my wonderful husband!  Thanks Stephen, I love them!

Pizza, cake and .....

Selfies....


It was an amazing day.  I loved every moment of it.  Thank you to all the people that called, texted, or wrote on my facebook page.  I gave out more hugs today, than some of you would believe.

Remember, you only live once and life is way too short.  It is important to love those who are dear to us and truly live each day!
