Celebrate!


 
 
 
Each week, Ruth Ayres invites bloggers to share and celebrate events, big or small, from our week.
 
Lots to celebrate one week into my summer:
 
1. 20 years of marriage to the most wonderful and patient man on the entire planet!
 
 
 
 
We spent the day together and partied like it was 1996!
 
2.  Book shopping!!! Our school has a very generous grant from the Literacy Collaborative foundation. So, each classroom teacher was able to spend $500 at the Cover to Cover Bookstore in Columbus, Ohio. I spent $499.71! If it was The Price Is Right, I would have won! Anyway, it's my students who win, because look what I was able to get for my classroom library:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Hope you're having a restful and fun Saturday, too - with lots to celebrate!

  6. Happy Anniversary! It's great when teachers and librarians use their budget to buy books at their local indie!

  9. Happy anniversary! So many wonderful books, smiled as I spotted a few favorites- 14 Cows, When Green Becomes Tomatoes, and Amazing Places. I spotted a couple on my WTR list - The Wild Robot and Booked. What fun to come so close to your budget without going over!
