2nd Grade Honors Assembly

Vincent received an award for Reading (surprise, surprise), and all around high achievement in second grade!

Playing Dress-Up

In our house playing dress-up is a daily occurrence. We have a big bucket full of dress up clothes. From old Halloween costumes to clothes that were bought just for dress up purposes. The other day was no exception to having a dress up day and Eliza had come out in fairy wings to an army combat hat. A little while later out she came with these around her neck.....



Yup, they are underpants! I never got an explanation about why she was wearing underpants around her neck. Only that they were clean (according to Addison), and she liked them there. I tried to take them off and she cried and screamed "mine". She wore them for a good hour.

Here is another song that I didn't have time to download earlier.

Kindergarten Thanksgiving Assembly

The Kindergartners put on their Thanksgiving Assembly today for their parents. Here is one of the songs they sang, and a few snap shots.

Turkey's Go On Strike

Vincent's second grade class did the musical play Turkey's Go On Strike. It was sure cute and we really enjoyed ourselves tonight. Afterwards we went to dinner with some friends of ours who's son is in Vincent's class. I became friends with her last year as she teaches at Vandalia where Vincent went to school up until this last year. Her sister was Vincent's teacher but since they both taught 1st grade and were right next door to each other they did a lot together so I got to know her really well too. We were excited when we found out the boys were going to be in the same class. We went to dinner at the Black Bear Diner and the reason why is because Vincent really does like this place, but on the way to the play he said, "Did you guys know that my mascot at Summit is a Bear?" When we answered in the affirmative he said, "Well, I think it would be a good idea to go out to dinner at the Bear restaurant after my performance since I am going to do a good job." John and I had to laugh. At least he had a positive outlook on how well he would do.
