“SEW” Excited!

I had the best birthday ever! I truly have the most amazing family in the world! They made my birthday so special. My mom came into the school to have a little birthday party with my students. She brought cupcakes and hats for each student and they were thrilled. They asked if I could have birthdays more often! They each made me a little card and were all so sweet. I love my class! A few hours later our classroom door opened and I saw my two little nieces walk in with balloons and a sucker for each of my students! Cassie and the girls surprised me and my students too! When Brooklyn walked in and saw me she said “Stacy!” It was the best birthday present ever. I have been trying to get her to say my name since she was born! Abbey brought me some yummy chocolate and a gift card to Cold Stone! It was the best surprise ever!

Later that night  we went to my parents for dinner. We had steaks and corn on the cob. Yummy! Derek has been telling me how spoiled I am for weeks but I had no idea I was this spoiled. I opened my presents to find a brand new sewing machine!! I am SEW excited!! This summer my mom and I did a lot of sewing. We made a few quilts and I really loved using her machine. She and Derek decided to buy a nice one and everyone went in on it. This is so much more than I could have ever dreamed of and I am so grateful!! I have already found a few projects to start with my new machine.
