So, the last time that I went to Canton I picked up some raw wood crosses. Here's what I did with them. Mom gave me the frame & easle for Christmas, I Mod Podged scrapbook paper to the crosses & the backer board in the frame & then I use the fabulous Gorilla Glue to hold it all together. 
Tomorrow is one of three TAKS days for my fourth graders. The saying "Everything is bigger in Texas" is so true when it come to state testing. It's all a bit over the top if you ask me (sadly, TEA didn't) but, like I tell my kids, "they make the rules & we follow them even if the rules are kind of silly." One of the rules is that we cover everything on our walls. This is what my room looked like when I left today....
That's just my back wall. Pete the Guinea pig is hiding under that bright green sheet. He's gonna be a sad dude tomorrow when he doesn't get to run around the room. All this test prep, of course, raises our stress levels. I had a dream the other night (maybe a nightmare) that I read some of my words out of order & the "TAKS Police" heard me. The cuffed me right there in front of all my kids & hauled me off to TAKS jail... fingers crossed that doesn't happen tomorrow. :o)
