Spirit Week

This week was Spirit Week for CJ at her school.

Monday was pajama day. CJ wore her unicorn pajamas to school. Poor Avary wanted to wear her pajamas that day too, but we were actually going shopping and she had ballet that day. I told her that when she is in kindergarten she will have a pajama day and she can wear them then. She liked that idea.

Tuesday was twin day, but CJ didn't really coordinate with anyone, so she didn't do anything special.

Wednesday was stuffed animal day. Avary and CJ got all the money they had and each bought themselves these stuffed horse animals from Barnes & Noble. They are actually kinda cute, they are all sorts of different colors. Anyway, CJ wanted to take that to school. I told her that she needs to leave it alone when it is time to do work, but she didn't and she had to lower her star once that day.

Thursday was crazy day. They told the kids that they could just go crazy and wear crazy clothes. CJ was so excited for this. We got her clothes out in the morning and got her all gussied up.


I put four braids in her hair and attached Halloween socks to two of them. She wore two different shoes, and leg warmers. She had a lot of fun. Avary thought CJ was sure crazy when she left for school.

It was really fun dressing CJ up. It was hard to dress her crazy because she is just too dang cute. When I finished with her hair, it didn't really look crazy, it looked really cute. Four more days of school for CJ and she is done, I can't wait!

Happy "Mothter's" Day

I had a really good Mother's Day. The girls get up earlier than I am wanting to get up, but Spencer got up with them so I could sleep in. The girls made sure that they were quiet while I slept, the first in....ever! When I finally woke up, Spencer and the girls were making pancakes for my mom and me. They tasted so yummy. The girls were really excited about them. After church, Spencer made dinner for us. He made baked potatoes and all the fixings for them. It tasted so good. For dessert he had gotten a frozen Razelberry pie, my favorite, with some vanilla ice cream. It was really nice to have a day off. The girls drew us cards of their own. Earlier in the week Avary had made me a little hanging glove with flowers in it for Mother's Day. CJ had made me this cute little poem teapot thing at school. It has a really cute poem in it:

"Here's a gift for Mother's Day:
I'll try my best in every way.
But when you get upset with me,
Relax and have a pot of tea!"

It is really cute. Spencer gave me a yogurt maker and he also made his own card. He has written on the front of the card, "Happy Mothter's Day". He didn't notice the extra "T" until he was coloring it in. Extra special. Anyway, it is like a little book. He drew pictures and everything. Inside it says:

"This Mother's day, I want you to know how much I love you.
I love you more than ice cream. (I'd rather make you melt any day.)
I love you more than watching sports. (which I'm sure you already knew.)
I love you more than candy.
I love you more than rollercoasters.
I love you more than video games.
I love you more than computers. (They could never love me back.)
I love you more than airplanes.
I love you more than I can measure.
I love you more than the sunrise.
I love you more than all the treasures of the world. (Their bling is nothing compared to yours.)
I love you more than all the world.
I love you more than all the universe.
I love you with all my heart,
Now and forever."

I love it when he makes me cards. It is really cute. The pictures are pretty funny like the airplane picture he drew his airplanes that he has and he shows one crashed and missing a wing. It is pretty fun. I have a great husband. He even did all the dishes.

We hope every mother had a great Mother's day.
