5 Things

So I sit here tonight, reading all my wonderful blogs, hoping to get some inspiration for a good post...but no such luck. I think the best you're going to get out of me tonight is a totally random post, you know...what I'm good at.

{Number 1}
Teen Mom 2. Hopefully I'm not the only adult who is glued to this show. I haven't watched too many episodes this season, but I feel the need to express my opinion about Janelle. I just watched the segment of the fight with her mom and my jaw was on the floor the entire time. I'm sorry who the heck does she think she is?!? Who in the world talks to their mother, the one that gave you life, this way? I can't believe I watch this show...

{Number 2}
MLK Day. I came across this VERY cool blog tonight that had such of cute ideas for MLK Day. She teaches 1st grade, but really it's so easy to use this stuff in 5th grade. Here are just a few of the great things I found...
I know this seems so not 5th grade...but really, it's a life lesson that a lot of people still have not figured out. They took a regular white egg and a brown egg. Then made a chart and compared the similarities and differences. Just like eggs, people have more things in common with each other. We're all the same on the inside, our only difference, our shell.  
Cute little self portraits.

Love. My little Lovebug sure knows how to make me smile. He came home from work tonight and took me to our most favorite hibachi place ever. Mmm mmm mmm, I just love him. :)

*For all of you Steelers HATERS, please skip #4*

Steelers. I'm tempted to buy this shirt because I love it.


{Number 5}
HARPER. I am really missing my niece people. It's been a long 2 weeks and I wish her mom would send me more pictures...HINT, HINT! Or it would be great if she updated her blog a little more often. Lindsey! I am not going to make it...I NEED PICTURES! (Video would be cool too) Here is my latest Harper picture and if you can't tell by her face...she is in MAJOR need of her Aunt Katie!! Love you baby girl!!!

  8. I did the MLK Jr. project with my 2nd graders and it was AWESOME!
    Thanks for sharing the idea. I think it taught the point much better than anything I've ever done before.
    Keep those ideas coming.
