Candy and Treats

February 16, 2018

Apparently that’s what Valentine’s Day is all about – candy and treats! My kids sure did LOVE it! Their Valentines for their friends this year…

Obviously Maxwell and Spencer made theirs and I think they turned out great. Love Spencer’s “Alabama A”! 🙂 For my memory, I also did Target cards for the teachers.

I was the party mom for all 3 classes so did goody bags with squishies inside! I think they were a big hit all around. Samantha had her party at school on Tuesday and got to go to gymnastics on Valentines Day!

My artiste!

February 12, 2018

Like last year, Maxwell’s art was selected to be displayed up at the library for the month! They do a nice little reception and we all enjoyed getting to celebrate our artist…

He was pretty proud and we were proud of him!

He also entered the school art contest again this year. I’ll be honest, he wasn’t super motivated to do it and, frankly, I didn’t blame him after what happened last year. Still, he’s a great artist so I “encouraged” him to make something to enter.

I thought his two pieces were fantastic – they both took a lot of time and thought and were creative.

Unfortunately, the judge didn’t agree. Oh well, you win some, you lose some. (and you get disqualified for some! ha!)

I’m still proud of my super creative, master drawer Maxwell and will always think he’s a winner despite what any silly judge says!

Other Christmas fun

January 10, 2018

Just a few more fun things we did leading up to Christmas…

I got to go up to Maxwell’s class to help them make a craft! I took pics of all the kids one day when I was at school one day and cut them out so they could “elf” themselves! These were my samples (which might hang on my fridge all year long!)…

It was fun to be up in the classroom with the kids and all of their elves turned out great!

I also went up to help with the Christmas party and they did a book exchange which was funny. I love seeing Maxwell in his element at school!

The boys got to go make gingerbread houses with James and his cousin, Rex. Maxwell has done this for a few years now but this was Spencer’s first time to get to to go!

Spencer also got invited to a Santa breakfast party the Saturday before Christmas – such fun!

These boys loved seeing Santa…and each other!

Samantha didn’t get invited to any special parties but, don’t worry, she fully enjoyed the spoils of the season too!
