Awards Squared!

I have to say I am a pretty lucky lady because I have been given not one, but two awards this week!  I am very thankful for my followers and everything that I am learning through the use of my blog.  This also reminded me of a Dr. Seuss quote that I never got to share this week (I did warn you that I am a quote addict).  I am happy that I am who I am and you can still love me anyways. 





First off I have to thank Mrs. Poland at Think, Wonder, & Teach for giving my blog the "Top Ten" award.  If you haven't checked out her blog yet I suggest you hop on over there.  She is also in a similar situation as me and will soon have her own classroom so I love reading about her fabulous ideas.

My second award was from Rebecca at The Teacher's Chatterbox and she gave me the "One Lovely Blog" award.  Rebecca is a 3rd Grade teacher and has an adorable blog with TONS of amazing ideas. 

So here are the rules:
1. Link back to the person that gave you the award - Done and done
2. Pass the award on to 10 other lovely bloggers - this was easy peasy (yes I only did 10 for both but who's counting....)
3.  Follow the person who sent it to you - already following squared


There are soo many awesome blogs out there so I had fun finding my favs.. although soo many of you have already received this award (because you are so special already).

Here are my TOP TEN blog winners:

 1.  Rebecca at The Teacher's Chatterbox. I have just recently started following Rebecca and I love her adorable clip art creations!

2.  Mrs. Ann Greene at Mrs.Greene's Kindergarten Korner.  She has an adorable blog and lately I have loved reading about her organization techniques as she follows along with the CFC linky parties. 

3.  Emmy at Daydreams of a Student Teacher.  I love reading about her practicum adventures.. it wasn't too long ago that I was in her shoes and she has some great stories.  

4. Tammy at Forever in First.  Have you seen her beautiful blog yet?  I absolutely love it.  She just posted the cutest spelling video where she shows how her students use kinesthetic tricks to help them spell.  LOVE.  

5. Molly at Lessons with Laughter.  I am not going to lie to you, I fell in love with her classroom!  It has inspired me to make my own themed pillows for my reading corner.

One Lovely Blog Award Winners

1. Miss. T at Journey of a Substitute Teacher.  I am addicted to reading about her substituting adventures because I can laugh and cry along with her. 

2.  Mrs. Poland at Think, Wonder, & Teach.  As I said earlier, she has a wonderful blog that I stalk regularly!  

3.  Miss Ice at 3rd Grade Sprinkles.  Have you seen her blog!! It looks so delicious that every time I visit I have a major craving for cupcakes.  

4. Mrs. Durbin at 3rd Grade's a Hoot.  I really enjoy reading about her Daily 5 adventures and how she has organized her bulletin boards. 

5. Kimberlee at Teacher Time Savers. She has some great resources on this blog and guess what.. they are free!

Now I am going to pitter patter and start my classy redneck quilt.. I really need to cut the fabric today... but because of a rotary cutting accident (only 3 stitches, not a big deal), my Mom is terrified when I pick up the blade.  Because I am visiting my parents this weekend I am going to have her help me cut all of my fabric while I supervise.  I am also going to work on my CV and cover letter for some new job postings!! Yay JOBS.
