Nemours Children's Hospital

As many of you know we moved to FL a year ago because my Husband got a job with Nemours Children's Hospital. It has been so very exciting to see it grow from a shell to now an almost opened working Hospital. Husband had some wireless work to finish up late last night so I went along for a behind the scenes tour, this is me standing on the roof! The soft opening is in October!

Pinned It, Made It! Monday~Taco Pie

It was Taco night here the other night but I wanted to change it up a tad so I looked up this Yummy recipe that I found HERE

Now I used what I had on hand and I had to fight everyone to take a pic..lol..as you can see there were no leftovers and since everyone gave it a thumbs up I will be making it next week too!

I'm joining Tammy in her New Monday Party HERE

Goodwill Hunting

I found some great finds for my daughter at our local Goodwill. I call it Goodwill Hunting because everything is sorted by color and not by size so I really have to dig in and search for good finds!

I can never find anything Country/Primitive in the housewares, that's just how FL is I suppose.

I hope your saturday is as calm as ours is, I might even curl up with my book and read!

As a present to me a ordered a couple of items from the Bath&Body Works Sale that is going on right now and I'm waiting on it to be delivered, I will share as soon as it arrives. Hubby let me sleep in and cleaned house for me!
It was a Great Day!

Wrapping Up...

We are busy wrapping up the last 2 days of school here.
Crystal has received 2 awards, 
most improved in MATH
most improved in ENGLISH

It was a complete surprise since we knew she was struggling so much and we had many a late night working with her on these subjects.

We are so Proud of her!!

The other 2 kids sadly have to be retained due to low Reading scores, My Husband and I blame it on the FL FCAT tests and am looking for school options for next year. If we can help it they will not be going back to that school next year. It has been a weekly struggle with both their teachers this year.

We are excited for Summer and fresh starts next year!
