Todays teacher gift and my new $8 umbrella!!!

Today the kids took baskets of homemade cookies into their teachers adorned with a vintage postcard. Tomorrow they are taking in this cute little plant with the "Thank you for helping me grow" tag.






Today I went to The Plum Tree to drop off some cards I had made and to check out what Cindy had gotten on her shopping trip. I was stunned at all these old umbrellas she had hanging from the ceiling...I had to have one and hung mine here at home. It's definitely my new favorite thing and only $8!!!
I am off to watch the wedding on Grey's Anatomy and then to bed...I am subbing in Kindergarten tomorrow.

Oooh, that is sweet for springtime! I love it!
The Americana decs look cute girly!
Fun teacher gifts, too. I bet you'll get a very nice thank you note from the teachers at the end of this week you've made so much more fun for them!
