Halloween Is Spooktacular!

I love halloween! Every year I love trying to figure out what costume I want to wear, shopping at Value Village/Goodwill several times a week looking for the PERFECT accessories. I am so excited about this year's costume! I even had to sew a few pieces together to complete "the look" of my costume. I'll post it on Halloween. My favorites from years past.......a hippie (I even won a "best costume" prize--you can't see the bell bottoms) and the Tooth Fairy. What are you going as this year?

Yee-Haw! Life In 1st Grade

I just love first graders. They are some of my favorite people! So this last week at school we had "Dress Up Like a Cowboy/Cowgirl Day" to go along with a PTO fundraising event. I opened the classroom door when the bell rang, and in walked a 19 cowboys/girls and 1 cow. My little steer was so dang funny about the whole "misunderstanding". He thought it was "Dress Up Like a Cow Day"! The cowboys/girls loved having their picture taken with him....and he loved it, too.

A little girl in my friend's class was wearing a "spaghetti strap" tank top with a sweater. It's against our district dress code to wear "spaghetti straps" alone. The kids have to be covered up. Well, she was hot and was complaining that she had to leave her sweater on just because she was wearing "noodle straps".
