Winner, Winner Chicken Dinner

A few things I learned from this giveaway:

1.  Y’all love February because that means it’s just a little bit closer to Spring…goodbye jackets & uggs, hello flip flops!!!!  Girls after my own heart.  I couldn’t be MORE excited!!!

2.  Some of y’all get a week off in February?!?! FOR REAL?!?!  And one of y’all said it’s because of the Rodeo?!  I think I know where we’re moving…SOON.

3.  Y’all LOVE 3-day weekends as much as I do.

4.  Y’all love teaching about all these fun little *holidays*…Groundhog Day, Valentine’s Day, President’s Day, Dental Health…just as much as I do, too!!  Hopefully the winners of this little giveaway will find a few things to make planning in February a little easier! 

Without further ado….

Winners

I will contact y’all via the email y’all left in your comment!!  Thanks for playing, you guys!!! 

For those of y’all that didn’t win, you can head on over to my TpT shop for 20% off of everything in my store through Friday!!

  Have a great week!!!!!

    Just thought I would share this interesting fact as to why we have February break here in NY....back in the 70's ( I believe) that is the time frame, oil was sky high costly like it is now, so in order to help defray costs & save schools some money, winter break came about & Christmas break was cut shorter, so now Christmas break is only 1 week long & we now have off 1 week in February when it is VERY cold usually, & it saves schools LOTS of money on heating costs, although this year that would not be the case, although the last two years it would be! Between snow removal and heating it fit the bill! It almost always SNOWS big during that break! So here we are not off for the rodeo, but for heat! lol...LOVE your stuff!

    Our school has a balanced calendar and we LOVE it! We get a week off in Sept, Feb, and then April in addition to our week for Thanksgiving and then Christmas breaks. Counting down the next 17 days until winter break for sure!!
