Five for Friday






Our First 5 for Friday!



Our first news is very exciting.  WE made it into the “Grade 3-5 Back to school Resources from TPT teacher-Authors Math, Science, and More…”



We knew it may be a long shot since we are new to the TPT and blogging world, but were ecstatic to see that we made it in.  Woohoo!!!! 



This week we both celebrated finish up our courses.  No one really believes that teachers take courses during their summers off, but I assure you, it’s not a myth.


This was the week of day trips for our family.  We went to the Lion Safari and Ripley’s Aquarium.  Both trips were amazing.  Libby’s dad decided to brave both day trips with a 4 year old and the two of us. 
At the Lion Safari we got to get up and close to many animals.  The fun was watching our daughters reaction to them all.  Here are a few pictures from the trip.
Thank goodness for a bus tour that allowed us to get so close to the animals.  Here's a shot of our favourite animal, the Giraffe.  

Libby and our daughter in line for the train ride.

Glad we were in a bus when seeing the Lions.  What an amazing animal.  


The next day we were on to Ripley’s Aquarium in Toronto.  It was incredible.  After our daughter finally realized that the sharks really couldn’t come through the glass, we were all able to sit back in awe of what really goes on below the surface.

Another shark.  There were lots.  It was amazing.

The results of our contest from TPT Sale….. and the winner is…… Libby!!!!!  However Jeff made an amazing comeback the next day. 



We had some fun working on our “All About Me” Pennants.  Our daughter couldn’t resist helping us when she saw Libby printing them off.
