Happy 2014!! Cheers to a new year! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season.
Here's my January Currently from the always fabulous Farley at Oh' Boy 4th Grade.
* LOVING ~ My niece and nephew made awesome duct tape wallets for Christmas with handmade ID's. So adorable!
* MEMORIES ~ Here are some of my favorite highlights from 2013!!
My cousin got married in Japan last April. It was amazing! We were there for the Cherry Blossoms.
Tokyo is a great city with delicious food and fantastic karaoke. It was definitely a once in a lifetime trip!

| Kumamoto Castle - This was the view from my cousin's reception. Wow! |
In summer, I went to La Paz, Mexico. La Paz means "peace" .... very fitting for this beautiful fishing town.
In fall, I went to Napa with family. Even though I'm a born and raised Californian, I have never been to Napa. If you love wine as much as I do, you need to go. It's beautiful!
Fondly,
I bet the Cherry Blossoms in Japan were amazing - total bucket list item for me! Homemade gifts are the best, I love the wallet!

Sounds like you had great adventures in 2013! I agree with you that I need to blog more in 2014 as well! How fun that your niece and nephew made you a present too!! Happy New Year!

OK, I have to admit that when I read that you got a duct tape wallet, I thought, "What a sweet gift! But that will go in the closet and never get used...." (I'm a brat, apparently.) But then I saw the type of duct tape they used and was pleasantly surprised to see how cute it is! I always forget that duct tape can be cute these days. haha! So give your niece and nephew an extra high-five and wallet-compliment from me, please. :)

Jayme, you sound like you had a great year! I am definitely jealous of the cherry blossoms. I am a new third grade blogger, and am so glad I found your blog through the linky. I am your newest follower! Hopefully we can collaborate in the future. Enjoy 2014 :)

DeleteThat's amazing to be in Japan during the cherry blossoms! That's an experience of a lifetime! I just finished reading Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes with my third graders and we read about the cherry blossoms. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteHi Jenn,
