Happy Sunday everyone!!
This weeks pictures seem to be like Oprah's My Favorite Things...except I am not a multi millionaire, they are not extravagant items, and I am not giving them away.
Other than that, just like it.
SUNDAY JANUARY 5th
I got this candle before Christmas knowing that it would make me happy after the holidays are done and I lit today. It really smells good. (I think I'll go light it now)
MONDAY JANUARY 6th
I finishsed my blanket before Christmas and enjoyed it today. Now I need a new knitting project.
TUESDAY JANUARY 7th
Bella had her first soccer game. Her dad captured her right before she kicked it in the goal!!! (She is 15)
WEDNESDAY JANUARY 8th
Dr. Conkey's Candy and Coffee Shop
I know that I seem to be a Starbucks fan, but this is my happy place. It is a local coffee and candy shop and they have the best flavored coffee either hot or cold. It is a 1.5 mile walk from my house so once I week I take the walk which is a good 3 mile walk, but on the way home I have a tasty treat to enjoy!!
THURSDAY JANUARY 9th
Today the Chinese Gymnasts came to do our assembly. My friend Kristen took this picture and it really captures all that they did for us. I am not going to lie my heart stopped a few times during the show!!
FRIDAY JANUARY 10th
My student Amanda's family is from Iowa too. Her dad went to the University of Iowa just like I did and we always have lots to talk about. She recommended this book and this author. This book is a memoir about growing up in Des Moines in the 50's. It is laugh out loud hilarious.
SATURDAY JANUARY 11th
OK so I stole this picture from the interweb but I DID wear this shirt today. Spending a lot of time in Iowa City and with addresses like the following:
100 Iowa Ave
University of Iowa
Iowa City, Iowa
The shirt is totally appropriate.
I got it at a place called Raygun in downtown Des Moines. I LOVE this store. The website is here. If you are from the midwest you need to go peruse their selections they really crack me up.
So there is my week. Not many human pictures, I'll try better next week!!

That shirt is hilarious! I could actually walk to Starbucks, but would have to walk on a busy road. So neat that you can walk to your favorite coffee place!
ReplyDeleteYay for the goal! :)
I love that shirt! Very funny... I wish I could watch that acrobat show - I need a little adrenaline in my life :)
