A Digital Native at Heart

I'm clearly having a difficult time balancing my time between this blog, the kajillion teacher blogs I'm following on Google Reader, my photoblog for my 365 project and now....

my class Twitter account!

Fortunately, between my 365 blog and Twitter I will be forced to focus my blog more on third grade! :)

For a month that is often dreaded for being the only month without days off, my goodness it flew by! Here's a March recap:

• had a girls night in Northboro, complete with dinner out and bottles of wine
• wedding dress shopping with Sarah

• lunch with the Flower Girls before spending the night on report cards
• a technology class on math games for the SmartBoard
• Wahlburgers and The Vow with some teacher friends
• National Read Aloud Day at school

• many a dodgeball game at SkyZone

• a Lia Sophia party in Scituate and made strawberry nachos
  

• March date night at Four Burgers on Boylston

• enjoyed a Ladies Day at the range

• a Stella and Dot party in Newton and purchased these gems

• made margarita cupcakes for the party

• booked my very own Stella and Dot party in May
• tried some amazing new recipes courtesy of Pinterest including a new favorite around our house--baked angel hair or slow cooker honey sesame chicken

• ran my personal best at Marshfield's St. Patrick's Day 5K

• baked some St. Paddy's Day sweets
