1 more day of school!

I feel like I could've crossed off a gazillion things on my to do list today....if I would've sat down to make one. I'm trying to get us ready to head to VA for a few days!

Biggest accomplishment of the day (aside from vacuuming AND mopping!).....teacher gifts!!!

 

 just for kicks, another angle!

 

and the back...

Aren't they the cutest bags ever??? I love the glitter!

 

Somehow I'm going to manage cupcakes, pretzels, apple slices, carrot sticks, 4 gift bags, a baby, and 2 boys...all while walking to school. oh my.

 

The boys each have their teacher and then an aide also. (Well, Zach's class has an aide thats in the room almost all of the time, Jacob's class has an aide that they share with the other Kindergarten classes but I thought she was deserving of a gift!) We got them each a wintery candle (I can't remember the name but they were fun!) and then I made them chocolate covered pretzel rods.

YUM!!!

 

I got a big "tray" of cookies all ready for Daniel to take into work in the morning (my tray is a shallow box that I lovingly wrapped in Christmas wrapping paper!). I made 12 different kinds of cookies (woah!) this season....7 new recipes. 1 turned out absolutely awful and went right into the garbage (I didn't even finish baking them--they were that bad). The rest are pretty tasty!

 

Zach would agree....

yummy, gooey, chocolately goodness. :-)

I was trying out a nutella stuffed cookie. It was super delicious but next time I'd change it around a little! The full name of the cookie is "nutella stuffed brown butter & sea salt chocolate chip cookie."

 

and.......now it's bedtime. :-)
