You don't know Jacques!

Oh Mondays... how they make me wish Friday was here again. But on this gray cold fall day... I am trying to see the glue bottle as half full. This past week I left my beloved 4th graders to do an inner city rotation in 2nd grade. I had to get used to a new school, new mentor teacher, and new students. What an adjustment. But, I have loved getting to know the new students and enjoyed their many hugs (4th graders aren't big on the hugs).

Some of my fall favorites:

You better believe that I busted these puppies out today. It was 47 degrees in Knoxville this morning!! While Bowers and Julie protest them... these shoes are cozy and comfortable. Oh how I love wearing them with leggings and a sweater dress.
