Summer Shopping Linky

Happy Sunday, friends!  I have misssssssed you!  I have had house guests for the past 7 (SEVEN) days!  We had lots of fun swimming, shopping (more on that in a sec), and going to movies.  But the thing is that I'm used to living alone with my furbaby and don't mind that a little tiny bit.  So seven days of no solitude was rough!  I know those of you with husbands and kids just told me to shut it! Haha!

I saw Prometheus and The Avengers.  I really can't decide which cutie from the Avengers that I'd like to star in my 50 Shades fantasies.  Ha!  Thor was always my first choice because he is just so....yum.  But Captain America has those biceps and that nice tight tushie! Whew!  And the guy with the bow just makes me want to growl.  Oh, decisions, decisions!  Maybe all?  


So the awesome Miss Kristen from Ladybug's Teacher Files is having a summer shopping linky party.
Love that zebra purse!

It just so happens that I went shopping this week!  My first purchase was from Target (I hope you say Tar-jay like we do lol).  I'm shocked you didn't hear me squealing from wherever you are.  GUESS what Target had???  LOOK!


Y'all know I'm crazed about the pattern duct tape but oh my STARS!  My classroom theme is bright colors and stars so I am over the MOON!  Can you tell I'm excited?

Next I went to the teacher mecca that is the Dollar Tree!  I found several things that I don't need but had to have anyway.  Here are some school supply die cuts and a little butterfly tissue paper art project.  I bought these mostly for some inspiration.

But also at the Dollar Tree I found these Crayola big books.  I <3 them!  I put my hand in the shot so you'd get the idea of how big they are.  Inside each book, there are gorgeous color photographs of all sort of items of that color.  We do a color word study at the beginning of the year so these will be PERFECT!


Here is a shot showing you the inside of the books..too cute!

So that's my first shopping spree!  What have YOU purchased?  Go link up with Kristen.

Much love,
