sneak peek of our 1st grade art mural... FISH in the OCEAN!

Take a look at our incredibly creative and lovely art created by 1st graders! I have started with the 1st grade (80+ kids) this year for our school collaborative art murals that decorate the halls.  Each class has spent a little over an hour drawing and painting acrylic on tissue paper(Eric Carle inspired) to create:

1. Fish and Sea Creatures

&

2. Ocean Water

I can't wait to see when it's all together! I'll keep you posted... There will be many more coming!

Aren't these so adorable?

A little "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" book dedication to my husband's 35th birthday!

You know, sometimes, just the simple things make my day. Today my best friend turned 35 years old. I knew he'd appreciate this little story in:

EEYORE HAS A BIRTHDAY by A.A. Milne

My husband reminds me of Eeyore at times... 

But not the part at the beginning of the book when Eeyore looks at his reflection in the water and says, "Pathetic" - although, that is hilarious too.

I read this with my wee one this morning, her choice.

Read along below what Pooh and Piglet are going to do for Eeyore's birthday:

BANG!

Come on, you think that is hilarious too! I love Eeyore. 

(I love the scribble drawings by Ernest H. Shepard too)

To my husband: Thank you for always being grateful and creative with what you have just like Eeyore! I love ya! 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY my friend! 

We'll see you when you get home!
