A little bit of a big change...

Did you notice that I have a new design... and a new blog name?! Ever since I made my blog I was a little unsure of the title because I knew I wouldn't be in third grade forever. Since I got a new job I decided to change it up and make it less grade specific and a lot more "me". And since we all know I love Disney, I went with pixie dust. And the FABULOUS Megan from A Bird in a Hand Designs got me all set up and ready to go. Let me just say, this girl is AMAZING. Seriously, I don't even know if I filled out the forms right, added too  much detail, too little detail, but she took exactly what I had imagined in my head and came up with this beautiful design.

I promise you I have a whole list of blog posts planned. It is just a matter of having the time to sit down and write them and add pictures. I just wanted to make sure all of my awesome readers know that "Third Grade Tidbits" is now "Teaching With a Touch of Pixie Dust". Same person... new super cute (if I do say so myself) blog design and name!

It's September!!

September means my extra long summer vacation is over. (I got an extra hmm 6 weeks because I moved from the south where they end in May to the north where they don't start until Sept.) And I know I am crazy late to the party here, but I want to join in the fun with Farley anyways! So...here it is!

So most of this is pretty self explanatory...

Big Brother! I love this show. What's even better is that my husband loves it too. And the reason why that makes it even better is because 9 years ago when we started dating, his mom and I were talking about the show and he was saying how stupid it was and he would never watch. Now.... now he loves it and reads up on things that happen.

Loving- my new school! Seriously the amount of stress I had been feeling the past couple years made me really feel awful. I was not a happy person in general. Being back home and now getting a job in my new school has been amazing! Seriously the stress levels are way down (of course there is still typical daily stress but NOTHING near as major as the past couple years) and I work with some amazing people.

Thinking- oh my goodness friends. My little girl is growing up. She is starting pre-k3 next week and tonight we converted her toddler bed into a full bed. FULL bed folks. I can't believe it. She was so excited to have her big big bed (the toddler bed was her big bed) and her new sheets and comforter. She even brought her baby doll and monkey to bed with her.

Wanting- I want to lose some pounds. Well more than some...

And in order for that to happen I NEED to get back into a routine and get back to the gym!

3 trips I would love to take... this one was tough because I want to go a lot of places. I would love to go to Hawaii (my dad's been trying to convince me for years to go). I want to go to a LOT of places in Europe but especially Italy. And finally, I never thought I would want to visit Alaska but I have seen so many amazing pictures. Except I would prefer to take a cruise there.
