Literacy Night!!!

Last night was literacy night at Brandon and Ben's school. It was a safari pajama party and it was a blast. We started off with pizza, salad, and brownies in the cafeteria. Then we went into the gym for awards and prizes. Both Brandon and Ben were top readers in their classrooms. They each got to hi-five or hug Sizzle. Sizzle was a blast.Here is Brandon with is certificate and prize.
And Ben with his. Ben was so cute he nor I had any idea so when they called his name he jumped up and turned to look at me like "did they call my name". He ran up at picked out his prize and then came running back to hand it over to me. After awards we separated into groups. We were the giraffes and went off to different areas each time we spent 20 minutes there. In Kenya we played games and did crosswords and wordfinds, in Tanzania we were read Where the Wild Things are and drew our own Wildthings, in Botswana we read stories in the dark with flashlights and then went around the room making up our own story. We had to skip out on Zambia because my awesome brother was watching Faith and Morgan. So we thought we would come home and save him. We dont want to scare him away from ever wanting kids. LOL. Thanks Josh your awesome!!!
