Friday Frenzy

Well, we were out of school Monday, had a 2 hour delay Tuesday, went all day Wednesday, had a 2 hour delay Thursday, and went all day Friday. I slid more going to school Friday morning than I did Thursday morning but no delay was called. Since Friday was the last school day of 2010 I couldn't complain too much!
Thursday, the entire school wore pajamas to school for movie day! K-2nd grade students went into the gym at 12:30 to enjoy popcorn, hot chocolate, and a trip to The Polar Express. Most of my kids had not seen the movie and quite enjoyed themselves! Before we went into the gym, Santa made a stop by our classroom. After passing out candy canes to the kids, Santa let me take a little seat upon his lap!
Friday was called survival! We had our "family Christmas" in the gym with the entire school that morning. The upper grades performed their program, each grade level sang a song, then the entire school sang Christmas carols together. The afternoon was spent watching movies, playing outside for the 1st time for the week, and packing up decorations to take home for the holidays. The kids made their reindeer shirts so of course pictures were taken as Santa's little reindeer! That evening, I went to eat sushi (yum!) for Anna's graduation. She really finished classes in August but had to wait until now to actually walk across that stage! I left dinner a bit early and headed to another tacky sweater party. By 11:00 I was in my car heading home...I was pooped from the weeks events. Now it's on to some serious relaxing before Christmas arrives!
