~Class Party~

The 3rd grade class party was a hit, when isn't a school party a hit?? I love helping in the girls classes during parties. The kids are always so happy, excited and full of energy. It is fun watching the kids mix with each other and having fun.

~Christmas Party~

A great way to end the school year, with a party! The kids had a great time. Lots of food, activities and crafts to keep them busy. They were so excited. I don't know how the teacher does it all day with so much excited energy! Before I headed to the party I decorated up a little clipboard and printed off lots of cute little stationary papers for Jolene to take to the birthday party she was attending after school. She came home pretty quiet but had lots to tell about the birthday party, the food, the movie they watched, the games they played and the gifts her little friend received. As I put her to bed she started to cry, she was so sad at the way her friend treated her little sister. She said she was mean and unkind to her. She said she was so glad her and Raychel were friends and got along and enjoyed laughing together and doing things together. I was so glad to hear her views. I see how great my girls are together, I guess we all take it for granted. Until she saw the opposite she didn't realize how good their relationship is. I can only pray this friendship my girls have only gets stronger, that they remain friends even when the times are tough.

and wear their pajamas.

They has a great time.

The kids really enjoyed themselves,

being cozy with their friends before

the holiday break.

Surprise

Jolene has a great teacher again this year.

Miss Bacon is young, and so much fun. When I heard

she was having a birthday Jolene and I thought

it would be fun to give her a surprise party from her

class!! I have worked in her classroom many times so

I knew her schedule and what time a party would work.

I asked her if I could "take over" the last 30 minutes.

She gladly said yes!! Well, we made her leave the room

for a few minutes while we decorated the room,

pulled out cupcakes, drinks, and of course the gift!!

We even had little gift bags for the kids to take home.

The party was a huge success!!!

Bee~utiful party

I know it may sound crazy but at Halloween I become

very grateful.

I am so grateful I have a hard working husband

with an amazing job so I can attend class parties and enjoy my

kids,

their friends

and their teachers!

To be able to sit and visit,

help the kids with their costumes,

serve up the goodies,

and of course take pictures!
