So today, exactly one week after I opened Twilight, I finished Breaking Dawn. During that week, I fell in love with Bella, Edward, and Jacob (and Renesmee), became completely obsessed with anything Twilight-related, and have tried to get every girl I know to read at least the first book (and successfully hooked one of them). I have laughed, cried, and totally immersed myself into this story. I am pretty sure I thought I was Bella, which makes me think that Stephenie Meyer did an amazing job of writing. I was pretty embarrassed that I got so into these YA books, but I couldn't help it! I am in dire need of discussing them with someone. Especially Breaking Dawn! So hurry it up, Leslie!!! No one else I know has read them!
I am actually kind of ready for school to start. I never thought I'd say that...but I am. I think I might go up tomorrow and do some work in my classroom. I want to do a lot more in the decorations department than I did last year. So, if anyone still reads this, I am open to some math-y suggestions!!

I totally forgot to tell you that I finished late Thursday night. Sorry! I've been so busy. You think you got into it...I picked up my niece the other day and she put her hands on my face. I braced myself for what she might "show" me. Are you kidding me??? I'm thinking that my niece is a vampire! I'm so weird.
I am sad they are over too. Now I don't know what to read. With school starting though I'm sure I won't get to read as much.
I've thought about your decorating question. I think you need to choose a theme and go from there. I did a nature them this year. I have lots of lady bugs and bumblebees. I have a huge tree, clouds, etc. One year I did sports and we talked about teamwork all year and we called TAKS the super bowl. I've seen cute animal print themes, like a jungle room. I've seen apples done A LOT. One of our teachers here did a beach theme. She has a huge umbrella they sit under for reading and tons of floaties and stuff. Just an idea...
I bought the tree at Mannings. I had the clouds from some other something. (Code for: I have no idea where I got them.) I made clouds using quilting batting though and they were AWESOME.
I know what you mean about stealing ideas. I'm all about it. You have the obvious "Wild About ___" (insert math word) One teacher that was here last year and did the animal print thing wound brown butcher paper in to words. It looked like a big vine that spelled out "word wall." If you do a leopard print you could to "We're Spot On". Throw in monkeys and you can be "hanging on to ___." I'll try to think more today and let you know. I'm about to send my new school email to you via your other emails.
did you freaking just spoil the books for me? they named their DAUGHTER renesmee??? they had a kid??!! gah!
