Set all alarm clocks

Is everyone ready for a sleepless night?!  The countdown to the First Day of School is on!!!!  Even teachers get the first day jitters....or at least I do.  I am anxious/excited about: getting enough sleep tonight, sleeping though my alarm, having a student cry, setting classroom procedures, having a break to "take care of business", making my little ones feel comfortable, setting high expectations, making sure I shovel lunch into my mouth at some point, my feet aching, and making sure I still come home and give my marriage 100%.  
Thank goodness I get to spend my days with these amazing ladies!!!
The weekend was spent preparing, girl talking, eating, celebrating, worshiping, and getting some quality time with The Mr.  We were invited to a surprise birthday dinner for one of our best buddies stepmother.  Let me tell you...this place was fancy!!!  The food was 5 star and so was the company.  It's extremely convenient that my best friends are married to my hubs best friends. 
This is just what I needed before the big week began.  Hopefully all you teachers are rested up and ready to take on the challenge.  I can't wait to hear about your First Week Back to School.  :)

  1. Good luck! I am the black sheep non teacher in the family but I do have a strong appreciation for what y'all do. Hope you have a wonderful first day!

  2. One of the things I have loved most about Student Teaching thus far is the friendships I have formed with fellow teachers--it looks like y'all are a fun bunch! I also love group date nights!
