"From there to here, from here to there, funny things are everywhere!"

Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss! How did we celebrate?? We celebrate in style.... The boys got to dress up at school again this year. Preston was so excited and had planned what he wanted to do. He was going to be Thing 1 and Tyson was going as Thing 2! We worked really hard on getting the costumes put together. (Including the blue pom-pom hair) Then on Tuesday Preston came down with Strep Throat. What a bummer!! He was miserable and couldn't go to school today. He was a good sport though and put his stuff on long enough to get a picture with Tyson.
It was also early out day today--so after school Tyson watched "The Cat in the Hat" and popped popcorn!! Then he requested GREEN EGGS & HAM for dinner!! We actually found several of the movies on a website. So the kids watched their favorite Dr. Seuss stories come to life!
Oh yes, we did have GREEN EGGS & HAM for dinner. Preston doesn't not like green eggs and ham! The rest of the kids ate them up!! I didn't color the ham, I was running out of time. The kids have been so hungry lately. If I don't have dinner on the table by 5:00--the WHINING starts!! It was a pretty fun day, minus the strep.

"Today was good. Today was fun. Tomorrow is another one."

Oh, psst...Macey's Grocery Store is doing a Dr. Seuss Celebration this Saturday. From 11-1. Cookie decorating, stories, and more.

your costumes are awesome!! you are a great mom! to bad about strep throat. we are totally susceptible to strep throat so i completely understand your misery.

btw, we really do need to get together to hang out. we really do have so much in common and sometimes it would be nice to spend some time with someone who has this much in common with me. you know someone to "whine" to. call me.
