Happy Summertime

Because we can’t reach through the screen and give you a big ol’ HUG for all of the love & support that you show by coming here each and every day to see what we’re up to… a polka-dotted printable seemed like the next best thing. 

Free Printable for Summer

Speaking of celebrating sunshine, I am extremely fortunate to have the chance to do A LOT of that lately. As many of you already know, my real job is being a high school teacher. Thanks to this career choice, I am on summer vacation and soaking up lots of rest, quality time with the hubby (who is also a teacher on summer vacay), quality time with my sisters (both teachers as well) and checking off my DIY/blog to do list a little quicker than usual.

Bridget’s Career as a Teacher

1. I work at the same high school where both Casey and I graduated
2. I pass both Casey’s and my high school locker about once a week
3. …Still remember the combination (they changed it… I’ve tried)
4. I work at the same high school as Matt (although our workplace is not his alma mater)
5. Matt & I met outside of the copy room about 4 years ago. No one at work knew we were dating for at least a year, maybe more. Actually, some colleagues found out we were dating after we were married & some probably still don’t know.
6. I co-teach with two teachers that I had in high school and I am grateful to work alongside them as a colleague now
7. I have two Master’s degrees in Education related fields and I never anticipate going back to school … ever again
8. Casey has come into my class as a guest speaker to talk about her career in broadcast journalism- I couldn’t have been more proud to give this opportunity to my students & allow them to hear her professional words of wisdom.
9. All of my sisters are also teachers and we all share our summer vacations, winter breaks, spring breaks & school holidays! #luckygirls
10. I coach varsity girls’ golf every fall
11. I am on summer vacation until August and will be CELEBRATING SUNSHINE until then! Although you may not be a teacher & blessed with this generous time off, I still hope you find time to celebrate sunshine this summer too!
