Currently November



I'm linking up with Farley over at Oh Boy 4th Grade for Currently November. This is my first Currently and I am glad to actually catch this at the beginning of the month! I've seen this floating around the blogging world for the past few months but am just now joining along!

So here goes....



LISTENING
So who has time to watch TV live?? I'd really like to know. Not this mama. Recorded TV is the only way I catch up on my fave shows. Scandal being at the top of my list....currently. :)

LOVING
It was just an all around great weekend for some quality time with the family. Trick or Treating with my sister, mom and niece and nephew and my own little Elsa and Olaf, Fall Festival in our amazing community, church this am, and lunch with the in-laws....love my family time BUT missing my family on the west coast! Love you Dad and Cindy!

A few pics from the weekend...

Yes, we went as the Frozen crew...along with about 543 other families! (side note...I actually already had this costume that my mom made for last year's Chili Cook-off Event. My team went as Frozen and won first prize! Had to recycle this awesome get-up!)

My sweet "Elsa" with her daddy

Love these two!

Meeting up with the cousins!

Next day....
My little man caught a nice size catfish at our town's Fall Festival!

Face painting is always fun!


THINKING
"How is it November already?" Seriously...it's almost 2015.

WANTING
After wearing my fleece-lined leggings and boots today, I'm realizing that I really need , ok...want some more leggings. But must have some longer sweater tops to go with them. Kinda thinking about getting some of the funky patterned leggings, just not sure I can pull those off. 

NEEDING
If you are a teacher mommy like me....don't we all need this? Like, every weekend. Imagine if there were 4 day school weeks with 3 day weekends!? Hmmm...

READING
Slightly embarrassing but brutally honest....I just don't have the time to really READ during the school year. Too many other things filling up my day and early evening. And before I go to bed? I can get maybe 2 pages in before I pass out. Summer is glorious for many reasons but I really enjoy (and miss!) my leisure reading. Read the Divergent series this summer and loved it! OOOhh...wait! I am READING a book...to my students, yes! That counts, right?? We are reading The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe. :)

So that is ME...Currently! 

What are you currently up to? Join the fun and link up with Farley at  Oh Boy Fourth Grade for her November Currently!

  1. Look at those little cutie patooties! I saw tons of Elsa's and Olaf's this year, but you had some pretty cute ones at your house :o)

    I CANNOT find long sweaters to wear with leggings anywhere, so when you find 'em, let us know where! It's my standard fall-winter "uniform!"

    Happy November!

    1. Aw, thank you!! I have recently become a fan of Jane.com. Have you heard of it? They have daily deals on boutiques around the country. They have fun leggings and sweaters at really good prices. You should check it out!!

  2. I agree!! 3-day weekends would be awesome!! Your little ones are adorable; my 4th graders got a big kick out of counting all the Elsa's in our Halloween parade, as they marched by. I think there were 25!! So cute!!

  3. Found your blog through Farley's linkup. I almost had an Elsa as well, but she decided to go as Sophia the First since the dress probably won't fit her next year! :) Isn't it amazing how popular Frozen still is? We're doing a "Frozen" Day as part of our special resource activity day in December. I can't wait! I enjoyed reading your blog and all your goings on :)
