Giveaway Winner!

Thank you all so much for your sweet comments.  I never imagined that 500 people might want to occasionally buzz by my blog when I first started it and it is such a delight to see so many of you.  

Well, I used a random number generator and 

Number 15 is Amy from Bumble Bee Lane Cottage.  (And no, us bees don't stick together, it was totally random.)

Last time I did a giveaway I used Tara Frey's pretty little random number generator, but now I can't get on her blog.  Does anybody know what happened to her blog?  To her?  

Well congrats to Amy and thank you for all your visits.  And......I'll be having another giveaway in late September for my own 4_ birthday and my blog's 2nd birthday!

Thanks again for your visits and your comments.  School is starting soon and my mom is moving to her practically brand new little cottage in a couple of weeks, so if you don't see me much just know I'll be back and buzzing around before you know it.

With honey for you all,

A Breakfast for Teacher Bees!

Some of you might already know that I'm a 3rd grade teacher, so I always enjoy celebrating the dedication and work of fellow teachers.

This past week we celebrated Teacher Appreciation Week at Baby Bee's school.

I am on the Parent Teacher Club at Baby Bee's school so I always want her teachers to know how much I appreciate the job that they do.  So I usually take charge of their special breakfast we have.  I try to decorate and let them know how special they are. However, this year,  I have been super busy and the day snuck up on me with no ideas for decorating their staff room.  For the last couple of years, I had variations on the same concept and I needed something fresh, but I was stumped!

Hmmmmm.........thinking...........thinking..............BUZZ! 

Yep, that wonderful creative buzz struck!  

Worker Bee has a collection of vintage globes that live on top of our entertainment armoire (yes, we still have one of those) and our bookcases.  

So, at 9:30 at night I figured out that our theme would be............(drum roll please)...............

I found an image of a globe, skipped on over to picnik to add some text, and created cards, a menu, etc. and the globes were the centerpieces.  

Do I have pictures of the tables?  Of course not!  I had to go to Baby Bee's school at about 6:50 and then scurry on over to my school for my work day.  Just didn't have a chance!

Oh and the gifts?  We have a raffle that morning of treats, school supplies, and Starbucks cards.  

Thank you so much for buzzin' in!  I am so glad to see you!  Aren't you glad blogger is up and running again?
