Too Long Without a Post

Sorry that I have been MIA for the past couple of weeks. When I got out of school, I had to have some down time. Here is what I have been up to:

I spent a couple of days at the beach with my toes in the sand with some great friends at Myrtle Beach. This was the view from our hotel room.

Our oldest niece turned 12. She is my husband's brother's child and we love her to pieces. We took her out to eat for her birthday.

Last week, I had a full day of PD about the Common Core math standards and revising our district's pacing guides for the new school year. We are getting a new reading series this year - Houghton Mifflin's Journeys. Is anyone else using this reading series yet? If you are using it, how do you like it?
