Happy Halloween!

October 31, 2022

It’s going to be a spook-tacular Monday! My crew got to go first found with costumes on Friday last week for Boo Bash at school. We had a very glamorous movie star…

a Western Weenie and a Baller!

The carpool area at school had been decorated in a Big Top Theme all week for HallowEEK and it was really unbelievable! I spent the majority of the weekend before helping to put it all together. So much creativity and talent went into this!

Amazing!! You can even click here to take a virtual drive through carpool to see it all lit up with the 6th graders dressed up! After school Thursday we turned the carpool drive through into Boo Bash with lots of fun games and rides and, of course, lots of candy! Full Boo Bash pics coming tomorrow!

Happy Halloween!!!!

Would love to hear from you! 3 Comments

HallowEEK and pumpkin fun

October 28, 2022

The Halloween fun is in full swing over here! The kids have had HallowEEK at school all week with different dress up themes each day. Samantha got dressed for neon day but didn’t make it to school – strep struck…

The boys had on some neon…no Maxwell pic. I was dealing with Bible Club and pitiful Samantha and never even saw him that morning!

I got some crowns for the boys to wear. Spencer posed for a pic but his crown didn’t make it to school. Maxwell actually took one to school but I never got a pic. Oh well!

Samantha and Maxwell also made pumpkins for the contest at school and at Robert’s work. Maxwell worked so hard on his Darth Maul pumpkin…

Spooky and awesome!! and Samantha and I worked together to make this happy hula girl!

Amazing! We were particularly proud of the arms we made!

She entered hers at school and didn’t win. She was robbed but that’s ok. Maybe she and Maxwell will both take home the prize at Robert’s office!

Now we’re ready for Boo Bash at school today! Lots and lots of Halloween fun!!

OOTD

October 26, 2022

This cute little girl has not been feeling great this week. Strep struck! She started complaining about her tummy on Saturday and by Monday morning we had a positive strep test. What was funny was that her throat really never started hurting – just her tummy. It’s no fun to be sick and I hate to see my happy girl feeling bad. I think today is the day she’s going to turn the corner though! Let’s look at some other smiley pics of my favorite girl…

I’m also trying to ignore the fact that I don’t feel well and am pretty sure those strep germs made their way to me! No!
