{teacher gifts}

thanks for the sweet comments, but, I can't take the credit for the towel idea! I linked onto a blog (I think from SD's) and got the idea there. I used her idea and supplemented with Sonic gift cards, tropical Sunburst candy and added a Southern Living magazine, summer scented lotion and the towel. I used some clip art and attached a card that basically said, thank you for a wonderful year, I hope you have a fantastic summer - and, Noah signed it. Very simple and fun! But, the idea was borrowed from someone else. :) My creative juices are dehydrated!

Nothing fancy. Nothing spectacular. But, I loved the colors and summery-ness (ha!) of them. A very small token of thanks to our teachers this year, Mrs. Beck & Mrs. Dittmer. They really "got" Noah - he had a great year.

We are still a tad nervous about what this next year will bring with the school split - but, are just praying it goes smoothly. I'm trying not to worry with the extra driving time and possibility of losing my car pool partner, but, have faith that it will work out the way it is meant to.

Enough of that, back to summer!

I always have the very best intentions and then craziness ensues. I have 4 days left and am almost finished with our teacher gifts. Whew! So cute, I want one myself. Will post pictures at completion. :)
