Hi again, Alright. So I haven't kept up with my weekly reviews. What else is new.. But, that just goes to show you, a teacher's life (even an unofficial teacher) is BIZ-AY. I wish I could tell you student teaching was entirely made up of hard assignments that kept me up all night. But, it's …

My feet hurt. That's the main thing I've learned this week. Wear good shoes. Okay, that's not the MAIN thing but it is very much important.

Hi friends! Today I'm going to share with you an ongoing project I've got in the works! (Ongoing meaning I haven't actually made the time to sit and finish it, just random spurts into the craft room) In our last house, we had a vinyl decal on the wall of Joshua 24:15 "As for me …
