Blog on Pause...

Hi Friends,


I am currently out of my mind with National Board work, running training, professional development planning, report card writing, first grade teaching, and everything in between.  Therefore, I am formally putting my blog on pause.  I know, you are groaning now because you love hearing about my life.  I love to write, but need to focus all my extra time on these fun things.  I have been neglecting my blog, and decided to make it a formal neglect. : ( 


My National Board entry is due March 31st.  My goal is to have it done by March 20th.  Hopefully, I will see you all sometime after that.  Do not worry, I will catch you up on my life when I return! ; ) 

Heart Cake Anyone?

Check out how it easy it was to make a heart shaped cake for my husband...

Where did I get this idea?  Pinterest of course!

So Sweet.

Being a first grade teacher, I receive several love notes a week.  This past week I received one that I particularly loved...

It may be tough to read...let me translate!

To: Mrs. Barnett Best Teacher Ever

From: Hannah

Open at Home (it was stapled!)

Dear Mrs. Barnett you are the best teacher ever.  You have very good clothes.  You are the best teacher I ever had.  I love your hair.  By Hannah

Compliment my clothes and hair, I will be yours forever! : )

Kathy Griffin.

If you know me, you know I love Kathy Griffin.  David does also.  We have been to see her a few other times, and had to go when she was in Chicago.  It was so much fun and hilarious!  We went out to Joe's Stone Crabs before (not Joe's Crab Shack...) and then went to the show.  She was funny as usual and had great reality gossip.  It was a fun date night!


It got me thinking...what was my top 5 celebrities?  It was hard to come up with, but below is my list in no special order!


1. Ellen
2. Kathy Griffin
3. Tori Spelling
4. Bethany Frankel
5. ??? - I will get back to you on this one!  I just can't decide!


What are yours?  Enjoy the pictures from the night!

Mrs. Barnett : ) 

Winner!!

This post is a little overdo...


I participated in my first fantasy football league last fall.  I completely failed, in fact I think I got last place.


Although, life was different this year!  I won the whole thing!  I have to admit, David kept better track of everything and usually put my line up in.  However, I actually helped this year and am confident that was the difference!  ; ) 


The best part...I got a trophy!  I get to keep this gem for a year!  Yay team!
