Graduation and teacher gifts!

We got quite a few graduation announcements and it was the end of school as well (teacher gifts!). I couldn't think of anything *GREAT* to get these kids - I really wanted to - but it was hard! I finally settled on making cookie bouqets for the kids - it was a fun project - and I think they turned out pretty good. It was fun delivering them all as well! I hope the kids we took them to at least enjoyed eating them! (Wasn't it NICE of Target to have pails that matched my theme????!)

I had leftovers, so I decided to make Philip's teacher one as well. She was Caitlin's teacher for 2 years and this year she had Philip. If I had time, I would have done it in the purple and teal school colors, but it was late and I was making the blue/gold ones for the graduates, so, Mrs. Robinson got blue/gold as well. She told me that she loved it and since she has 3 kids, it works out well for everyone to have their own cookie. I didn't plan it that way, but it worked out! I wish I had taken a picture of the cute tic tac boxes I did for Caitlin's teachers - nothing hugely elaborate - esp since she had 7 teachers this year - but I did want them to know I was thinking of them! I think it would be one of the hardest jobs on earth to be a jr high teacher - esp after seeing the kids that walk out of that school everyday!
