Parent's Day


We had another fun event up at school today. Parent's Day seems to be the new tradition that follows Open House. It works out great for the teachers, giving them a relaxing day to recover from all of their hard work. Parents have the option of having breakfast up at school before the bell rings or bringing lunch to enjoy recess with their kids. After a quick stop at Subway, I pulled the girls out of their classes and ate at the lunch tables. Allison scarfed her food down as quick as possible to rush off to the playground with her friends for an extended recess. What am I, chopped liver? Taylor, on the other hand, enjoyed listening to the conversations with the moms and challenged me to a game of Switch. This was a new game to me-definitely one we didn't play back in elementary school. The kids recruited several parents and we all joined in. It was actually really fun, although it was tough in flip flops!
