Happy Thursday!
The hubs-to-be was home sick today and all I wanted to do was stay home and take care of him… but alas…. I trudged off to work with my kiddos. We have report cards due soon and I have a gazillion assessments I still need to give… EEEEKKK!
I did come home early a finish a little project I had been working on.
My Pick-a-Present freebie:

This is a quick n’ easy board game in which students have to pick a card, read it aloud, and determine if the word has a short vowel sound or a long vowel sound. Your kiddos will race to the finish line and try to avoid being stuffed by the stocking card!!! Mwuahahaha…. when a student picks the stocking card, they can move their partner all the way back to the beginning!
Before I go (the boy is whining…)
DeAnne over at First Grade and Fabulous is having a linky that is making me salivate for a midnight snack! I had to link up with one of my FAVE holiday recipes:
PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE!!!!!
The first cheesecake I ever made was for Thanksgiving 2 years ago… and I was hooked! I was already hooked on eating cheesecake, but after baking that deliciousness in a spring-form pan, I was hooked on baking cheesecakes. A cheesecake is not easy to make, buttttt… it is oh so worth the time when you get to take your first bite!
You can’t go wrong with a little Paula Dean in your life!
Here is her creamy, fall-flavored Pumpkin Cheesecake!

So can relate to the sad, sick hubby~ Mine can't even make himself a piece of toast when he's sick! What on earth would they do without us! It is amazing what we can manage to accomplish when we have the bug, but one sniffle and they are couch-bound! Blessings to you and I do hope the hubs feels better (maybe more for your sake π
Scary to think we are prepping December already! We are in your same boat with report cards approaching and the holidays looming around the corner. Pause button please! Thanks for the fabulous freebie!
