Hey y’all! I’m Michelle, Shell, Shelley, Mommy, Mrs. Oakes or all of the above. I am married to an amazing man and we have two adorable and crazy little boys. I’m also a mommy to an English Bulldog named Gus, who sheds, slobbers and takes up half our couch.
My sweet hubby and I.

Drew is 7 and sweet and quiet.
Landon, our 4 year old goofball. He’ll crack you right up.

I’m a self-confessed shopaholic, reality t.v. loving, bracelet stacking, country music obsessed, crafter.
I love to workout and spend time with my family.

THREE LITTLE WORDS THAT DESCRIBE YOU.
Determined. Giving. Patient.
FINISH THE SENTENCE, “________, SAID NO TEACHER EVER!!”
“I would love to collect more data…said no teacher EVER!!”
Q: IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY AND YOU CAN INVITE ANYONE {DEAD OR ALIVE} TO THE PARTY. WHO ARE YOU INVITING?
Luke Bryan. He can crash my party anytime!
Q: IF SOMEONE WROTE A BOOK ABOUT YOUR LIFE, WHAT WOULD BE THE TITLE?
Her Crazy Life

Audrey Hepburn’s quotes are my favorite.
Q: IF YOU HAD TO SING ONE SONG ON AMERICAN IDOL, WHAT WOULD IT BE?

Q: ARE YOU A MORNING PERSON OR A NIGHT OWL?
I’m both, because I have to be. I stay up late blogging, watching reality T.V. and working out. Normally, I get up at 4:30 to get ready for school. Sleep is overrated when you are a teacher, mommy, and blogger.
Q: WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE RESOURCE THAT YOU’VE CREATED IN YOUR TPT SHOP?
My Shared Reading units I created last year are my favorite. I spent so much time researching the Common Core and what is expected of our kiddos. I felt my reading instruction, especially in regard to comprehension was the best it has ever been.
Q: SHARE SOMETHING WE MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT YOU!
I’ve been with my husband since I was 16! Furthermore, that means I’ve been with him, longer than I’ve been without him. Crazy!! We never broke up, even through separate colleges. I love that man!
