I made baskets for the teachers for teacher appreciation week. this is a bad picture but.... it was kind of tricky finding all the candy bars, but finally ended up having the best luck at Boyds on the West Side and gas stations.

Throughout the school year you have been a LIFESAVER

and that's nothing to SNICKER about,

you've had to deal with TWIX from students acting like 3MUSKETEERS

but you have always RIESEN to the occasion.

Although there were many days you thought you'd lost your SKITTLES

or felt like an AIRHEAD with all you had to do

and the accidents caused by BUTTERFINGERS

I'm sure were GOOD N PLENTY

so while the PAYDAYS are probably not 100GRAND

it is time for you to TAKE 5 and rest your WATCHAMACALLIT

thank you for all you do and whether you go

across the country or into ORBIT

we hope you summer is EXTRA special.

Happy May Day!!!!!!! This is somewhat of a lost holiday.... I remember making May baskets for my class in school and especially for my grandpas and grandmas, setting the basket on the steps, ringing the doorbell and running around the house and they would come chase us and kiss us. Not sure if that is really what you are supposed to do or just something my mom thought up, but it was fun! I made the strawberry baskets for the kids' teachers and the other little baskets for their class. Haley was quite a help and did all of the stamping and punching of circles and scallops for the fronts. She loves being able to help with projects. Hayden did all of the pulling of the lever for the sizzix to emboss the strawberries. Have a great weekend!
