Quarter 2 Week 2: We had a lot of fun on campus this week. 4th/5th worked on wonderful bridge building projects. 6th entertained us with songs, both English and Spanish, for our opening. Captain Underpants would have been proud of the crazy underwear artwork by the K/1 group.
|
Our special day of wearing Halloween shirts was also nice change of pace. I do want to apologize in advance for all the treats that were consumed during the Friday festivities.
|
If you are going trick or treating this weekend, be careful and enjoy your time as a family. Would love to see some costume photos of our students so please share. I know nobody likes Almond Joys, so I have set up an Almond Joy disposal area in my office.
|
|
Have a wonderful weekend, see you at 8:10 on Monday.

Making Memories and Traditions
|
|
Around this time of the year we begin to see the weather change
|
|
The days seem to just get shorter and shorter
|
|
As the sunsets earlier and rises later
|
The holidays are around the corner
|
One of my favorite memories growing up is every October we would have a fall fest. As a family we would go to Apple Annie's and spend the late morning out there. We would go on a hay ride and pick pumpkins. After our search for our perfect pumpkins we would split up some of my siblings who wanted to do the corn maze and the other half of us would go to where the food and nick knacks were. Every year I’d switch it up...I remember one year going through the corn maze and feeling very scared and the other year I remember going to where the food and nick knacks were. I got honey sticks, kettle corn, snow cones, roasted corn and we would get Apple Annie’s delicious pies! After a full afternoon of fun and food, we would go to my aunt's house where it was fall galore. There was more food, games and a lot of great memories. We did this for a few years and as time went on and we got older the fall fest tradition faded out. Now that I’m older I want to bring it back because it’s important to me to create those memories and traditions. So as you and your family enter the holiday season, think about what traditions are important and enjoy making these special lifelong memories.

Have a safe and happy Halloween!
