This week was red ribbon week at school!!! We had so much fun dressing up for the different days. On Friday (Oct 31 2008) Lily had her Halloween Party at school. My sister-in-law (Cindy) watched Avery for a couple of hours for me so I could go and help out. I could have taken Avery, but I would have spent the whole time chasing him around, and would not have been able to help out. So I am SOOO glad that it worked out for Cindy to watch him. We had a great time!!!! The kids in Lily's class are so stinkin cute!!!! You could tell that they were having an excellent time. They were so cute in their little costumes!!! We have had a busy week, but it has been lots of fun!!!!
Monday was Maroon and White day (school colors), but unfortunately my child with more clothes than me (not kidding about that) does not have anything maroon. So we weren't able to dress up on Monday. But Tuesday was favorite sports day. She (of course) wanted to wear a cheerleader shirt. We were in luck, cause she has a couple of them. I thought she looked super cute (but I ALWAYS do)!!!!
Tuesday was Pajama day. She REALLY wanted to wear a pair of jammies that had a robe with them. We decided on this pair. They were warm, and not too tight (like most jammies are supposed to be). She looked TOO cute!!! Most of the kids in her class were dressed up for this day. I guess they made a big deal over it in class, cause they were all so excited. They were so cute!!! I guess wearing their jammies also helped them sleep, cause Ginny (my mother-in-law) said Lily was passed out when she got there to pick her up (she picks her up on Wednesdays and Fridays, which REALLY helps me out!!!!!)
Friday was wear Red Day!!!! This day we could do, cause she has a few different red shirts. Again, I have to say she was a cutie!!! They had a ceremony at school to release red balloons that said "Alpena is Drug Free!!". The kids in Lily's class got to go and watch them release all of the balloons. I guess they got a big kick out of that!!!
Later that day was the Halloween Party!!!! They were going to have a mini parade around the school, but unfortunately it was pouring down rain, so they weren't able to. They decided to play a school type version of musical chairs. They marched in this circle around the rug and when the music stopped they had to look for a pumpkin letter on the rug. If it was in front of them they could pick it up and they would sing a little song. It was so cute, and they all REALLY enjoyed it.
Lily decided she didn't want to be a cheerleader this time (like she was for Trunk-R-Treat). So she decided on Snow White. I have to say that the investment I have made in her dress up outfits has been one of the best I have made. Lily has gotten the money's worth out of the all!!! She had so much fun trying to decide what to be for what Halloween party!!!
