Street Party

May 3, 2018

Street Party success! Just like the last one, it was months of planning, lots of hard work, but all worth it! The day went off (mostly) without a hitch and I think all the kids had a great time. The weather was perfect and everything seemed to run smoothly! Yay!

As always, GJ was there to help and I couldn’t have done it without her. Maxwell also decided he needed to come “help” for the day so he played hooky from 1st grade to go back to preschool!  🙂

Just some pics of the setup so I remember. Unfortunately I didn’t get a great pic of the inside room that had tattoos, face painting, and superhero masks to decorate.

The most important thing was that the kids had FUN! They loved the games, the prizes, the bounce house!!

Sadly, the only snafu of the day was when the generator powering both of the bounce houses in the park went down. We were able to get one up and going with an extension cord and then FunSource finally got back out there with a new generator. Not ideal but out of our control. We made it work!

It was a lot of work but I had 3 good reasons to do it!

School stuff

May 2, 2018

Today is the big Street Party up at the preschool that I’m chairing again. It was a success in 2016 and I’m hoping it will be a success today too! In the spirit of school fun, a few pictures of some recent school happenings…

Some more pictures from Spencer’s teacher of the bug parade…

He’s super into baseball now, but football is right at the top too! He and a few of his friends decided to make a “football book” at school. They did this all on their own during free time and I was super impressed. Maxwell did the illustrations and 2 other friends wrote it. Jack was the publisher and convinced his dad to make 40 color copies of the book! ha! Maxwell set up shop one day and sold them in the front yard…

He sold a few copies thanks to kind neighbors and family and friends. Love my little businessman!
