We had a dinner today to celebrate our
Two Favorite Teachers!!
Jill our daughter is a 4th Grade teacher at Gibsonville Elementary in Gibsonville, North Carolina.
Scott our Son-In-Law is a High School Teacher teaching AP US History, CP US History, AP Psychology and AP Government at T.W. Andrews High School in High Point, North Carolina. They are both in their 6th year of teaching... Lucky Students!!
Our dog Bromley (Sheltie) meeting Jill and Scott's dog Reagan for the 1st time! Bromley loved having a visitor... Reagan not too sure what to think of this guy!!
We had a "gift bag" filled with things on Jill's wish list of things needed for her classroom!!

What a feast and what a thoughtful Mom you are. It's a wonderful way to send kids, even the big ones, back to school.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great day you planned for Jill and Scott. I love the pencil centerpiece....great idea!! Your dinner looks amazingly good, and the pie.......yummo!! Have a great week:)

Kendra, what a great occasion to celebrate with family! Love that you put together a classroom gift bag. So many people do not realize how many teachers spend money out of their own pockets on their students needs.
ReplyDeleteLast night I heard on the news that schools in Detroit don't have textbooks or even toilet paper. Anything we can each do to help our schools and our teachers, in turn benefits the children and their futures.
I love your pencil vase! I have just been looking around blogs at tablescapes and decided to try a back to school theme...that vase is going to be a centerpiece!!
ReplyDeleteLove Ina's recipes. Your key lime pie looks great also. I enjoyed the pet pictures. Makes me miss our collie.
