New Free Classroom Poster Printable

August 28, 2015 by Crafty Teacher Lady +

It's 'back to school' time which means it's also time for another FREE CLASSROOM POSTER PRINTABLE! One of my favorite shows of all time is Friday Night Lights and my favorite school counselor is Tami Taylor (a lead character in the show)! In one scene she's giving Tim Riggins (a student) the riot act about why she cares so much about his future... This inspired me to make a new poster for my

May 27, 2015 by Crafty Teacher Lady +

I bought my first 'flip house' back in 2010, spent the summer renovating, and used the profit from the sale to put toward a downpayment on my current home. I've been wanting to jump into another flip for a while now and after searching for over a year, finally found the perfect property... Isn't she darling?!

I love a good thrift store visit…the only items th I love a good thrift store visit…the only items that came home with us were the beach chair (we needed one), the mini chalkboard (which I’ll take to school to display the “quote of the week”), and the cute New Balance sneakers. Stay tuned for part 2 where I show you all the things that caught the eye of my five year old!! 🤣🥰🎉👏🏻
We took our 4th annual trip to @storylandnh and as We took our 4th annual trip to @storylandnh and as we sat to take a break, this character came over to say hello. Our daughter has worked so hard in physical therapy to overcome some gross motor challenges related to balance and coordination, most notably learning to walk independently. With some encouragement, she stood up and walked over for a hug! This seemingly mundane moment for most families is SUCH a huge milestone for us- one that is a culmination of YEARS of hard work. Words cannot express how proud I am to be her mom and to have a front row seat to true determination, perseverance, and patience…today was an awesome day and makes me so hopeful for the future! 💗
My home state of Maine will forever have my heart- My home state of Maine will forever have my heart- I miss it every day but feel so lucky I get to come back home for much of the summer to fill my cup right up to the brim! I hope my daughter is building core memories of her time here each summer as well…video captured while on a July Fourth family cruise in front of Portland Head Light in Cape Elizabeth, Maine.

Still can’t believe this is our backyard…I was get Still can’t believe this is our backyard…I was getting ready for bed and I looked out my window and saw both a deer and a bunny and pretty much felt just like Snow White! I can’t get enough of these cute visitors (and also know I won’t be spending a ton on landscaping since most plants won’t stand a chance)! 🤣
Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry tre Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry trees in our backyard…watching them bloom has been nothing short of magical. And the scent of the blossoms!! Absolutely divine! 

Buying an older home vs building new can have its perks- one being an established yard (which I just fell in love with). We’ve got neighbors all around, however, the backyard feels pretty private thanks to landscaping done years ago by the previous owners!
