Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!!

Dr. Seuss' birthday is HUGE within our school district!! All the kids get to wear their PJ's for the festivities! My girls were so excited to wear their new jammies today. (Ok, bad mom story: my kids have cute jammies. They were just all dirty. Sooo...rather than getting off my lazy butt and washing them some to wear to school. I went and bought them new ones. OH YES, I am that lazy!!)
You should have seen Chris' face when he read what Morgan's said. Oh his worst nightmare HA!Morgan's day started off with her teacher cooking the entire class pancakes for breakfast. My goodness, you would have thought Morgan had never had pancakes before. She has talked about it non-stop since the note came home!! Here is Morgan with her friends Sasha (you all know her by now) and Tatum (my friend Jana's daughter)Morgan's 1st grade class. Shelby had the same teacher last year and we just LOVE her! She's so fun! Preston and I decided to eat lunch with the girls. (Preston really just wanted a piece of Dr. Seuss' B-day cake!) As Morgan's class was leaving, Shelby's class came into the lunchroom, so we decided to hang out with them. Here is Shelby with her friends. Chloe, Izzy, Kaylee, and Maddy. They are quite the group. You've never seen a more giggly group of girls in your life. After lunch, we went to recess with Shelby's class and then hung out with them for the rest of the afternoon. We made "OOBLECK" to go along with "Bartholomew and the Oobleck". Then they made cute little "Cat in the Hat" snacks. They used Ritz crackers for the base then stacked Gummy Lifesavers for the hat part. They "glued" everything together with icing. (Ya'll know that's cute!) Shelby's class with their Dr. Seuss hats. (Notice that Preston is in each of the class photos. I love both of their teachers so much! I try not to have to take him when I'm in the classroooms, but both teachers are SO good about including him in whatever activity they're doing.)Next was the Dr. Seuss reading assembly. (And NO that is not me!!!! I did my time last year as the reading chair! and the pics of the Rodeo clown costume will NEVER see the light of day! ha!)The day ended with a read-a-thon in the hallway. Who says it takes 2 to tango? HA! These girls are so silly! (Chloe, Shelby and Izzy)
