Pioneer Ridge Elementary has Character Day once a year, where the students are encouraged to dress up as their favorite book character. Emma couldn't decide what she wanted to be, but our friend Keaton asked her to dress up with him as Jack and Annie from The Magic Treehouse book Ghost Town at Sundown. I didn't get a picture of Keaton with Emma, but they were pretty cute!
I taught Joely's co-op preschool about the letter P, so we had a P is for Pirate day. We dressed up like pirates, followed a treasure map to find the buried treasure (which was pirate booty that we ate for our snack, hidden in the dryer), and made our own cute pirates. The kids seemed to have a ton of fun...I know I did!
Pi Day kind of took us by surprise. We spent the day in Fort Collins where Dave and Carson worked with Uncle Ryan in his workshop to create Carson's pinewood derby car. The girls and I didn't stay and play because Elli was still contagious with the chicken pox. Even though my kids are vaccinated, we didn't want to take a chance on getting sick! So we spent all day running around Fort Collins and realized late that we hadn't had pie yet! On the way home we stopped at Walmart and got an apple pie, an Oreo pie, and a tiny little pecan pie. When we got home we feasted!
