{Back to School}
I know for many of you it’s Back to School time and if I’m being honest, I’m wishing it was Back to School time here in NY too but that’s at least a month away. I love my girls but they are getting stir crazy being home and that’s making me stir crazy. They are actually going to be spending a few days on Long Island with my parents and they are SO EXCITED! This is going to be their first time sleeping away from home for more than one night without me. I think my oldest, Emilee, will do great but I worry a little about Gracie. When I was in the hospital having Kole, Gracie was not very happy about being away from me. We’ll see how that goes though and if worse comes to worse, I go and pick her up. It’s only a 2+ hour drive away. I can handle that. 🙂
Anyhow, is anyone getting tired of hearing about Pinterest? I know that blogs have been saturated with talk of it lately. And ya know what, if you don’t use it I can see how that might get annoying. But, seriously, it is a lot of fun to surf and it is a well of information. Just this morning I popped on and typed in “Back to School” and you would not believe how much cool stuff popped up. I also found quite a few great blogs that I had never seen before. I added a few to my blog list so I wouldn’t forget and started pinning away.
Here are a few back to school things that I found and pinned (all images are linked to the original source):
Back to School Survival Kit
Back to School Treats Made from Rollos and Hershey Kisses (very clever)
Back to School Party – I just love this pennant banner. I so need to get one of these up in my house somewhere!
Back to School Fairy – I’m a little biased with this one because it uses the name Gracie. 🙂
Ruler Wreath – So original
Makes me want to go back to school!
XOXO

Awesome! Wish mine were little instead of high school and college. Love your blog – thanks for sharing.
Such cute ideas. I’m in NY too so we don’t go back to school for a while either.
Agh! I’m so flattered that you featured my little teacher gift! Thank-you for your comment! I clicked over here and felt the same way, “where have you been all my life?” I’m following and also spending all day going through your archives. Such good stuff to see and I love the “realness” of your blog!
I remember those days and I do miss them. What cute back to school ideas! I wish these blogs were around for ideas when my kids were little.
Thanks for the ideas! My son is entering grade 1 in a new school. Some fun ways to introduce himself and make a god impression with his new school-mates:)
