AWESOME!!!!

The 3rd grade girlies met me for Taylor Swift LIVE @ Scholastics!

It was great!

I am not sure who was more excited about getting to see her.



It was neat to hear her talk about favorite books (To Kill A Mockingbird), books that she loved as a child (Dr. Seuss).

A few other classes enjoyed the presentation in their classrooms. You can still catch this at Scholastics until January 28th - it's been taped and saved for our viewing pleasure until then.



Of course she finished out our time together with a song!!




Taylor spells - happy girls! :)

Put it in Gear and Ride!

Of all the books I have read this school year this would probaly be one of my favorites!
Also my pick so far for the VA Readers' Choice! Of course a it's a close tie with The Hunger Games.
Two friends set off on a cross country ride after graduation and their lives are forever shifted into a new gear!

Write On!

Amazing book! I just finished this week before last!
I can't say enough good things about this book except - Lauren Oliver is coming to see us at SA on December 1st! I just can't wait to meet her!
She will be speaking to 9th-12th grade.
If you get a chance to grab a copy - do so!!
