Tar-jay, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways...

Hey yall!!!

During the year, I would say something like, "It's Tuesday! We're almost halfway thru the week!"

However, this is summer...and summer doesn't have a schedule :)

Which is actually not true at all, since I am in classes. But I still allow all the days to just run together :) which is probably why I haven't even started on my research paper that is due in 2 days...

Hmm....

Anyways, today, instead of working on my research paper I went to Target. I was just there to pick up a prescription, and had absolutely  no intention of buying anything else.

But we all know how that goes....

I didn't even make it past the dollar spot before running going back to get a cart....because I saw all things green, blue, purple, and pink (my classroom colors for next year, along with brown and orange).

I loaded up, my friends...

The first thing I saw were these little piggies



I mean, how could I have passed these by???

These darn little piggies threw me all off my game.

I saw loads of math activities swirl before my eyes, and I was reaching for them before I knew it. I am most definitely creating a money unit to go along with these babies. So, run out and get your own!

I'm not sure if you can tell from the picture, but these guys are pretty itty bitty. Here is a fuzzy comparison picture...



See how itty??? I {heart} them!

The next thing I grabbed were all these cute little buckets and baskets.



I'm not sure yet how I am going to use them, but I'm sure I will think of something. Also, those solid baskets are actually purple, not blue.

When I saw these, I about died!



What will become of these, you ask?

Why, owls, of course!!!

I mean, too cute, right???

Next up, I saw these adorable dry erase boards..

I already have a bajillion dry erase boards for my room...but I don't have any with a pink frame!

I'm planning on using these by the door to write a sweet welcome message to my littles in the morning! I might also use them to write reminders on the way out the door :)

I am so loving my haul today!

And so, the love affair continues...
