Penguin Day

So, yesterday was "Penguin Day" at the boys school. They asked that we dress our kids in white shirts and black pants so I obliged. I waited until we were about to walk out the door to put their white shirts on (if you are a parent reading this, you know exactly why)!!! If you happen not to be a parent yet here's a few words of wisdom for you: If you put a white shirt on a child before THE MOMENT YOU'RE READY TO LEAVE you'll be changing the shirt or trying desperately to remove a stain and then be late to wherever you are going!!! Anyway, we made it to school with clean, white shirts but they were far from clean when I picked them up later that day!!! I have always thought whoever makes a kids shirt white probably doesn't have kids or has a lifetime supply of Shout (which doesn't always work)!

Isaiah's class had an igloo in it that they got to play in, made a paper plate penguins, and had hot chocolate with marshmallows. Samuel's class made penguin feet (I've attached a photo below of BOTH boys in these penguin feet), made construction paper penguins and waddled to chapel like penguins! I bet that was cute! I REALLY love the boys school and they like it a lot too. Next week Isaiah's class gets to tour a pizza parlor and learn to make pizza - maybe I'll let HIM cook dinner that night and put his skills to the test?!! Later this month they have pj and teddy bear day. All the kids get to wear their pj's and bring their favorite teddy or stuffed animal. LOTS of neat stuff going on!!!

Here are my little penguins

I HAVE to attach this next pic too...

Samuel did not like what we were watching on TV so he went and got the little DVD player and watch "Danger Mouse," one of his favorite cartoons! Nice little set up, Sam!
