Fun Run--Struttin' for Supplies 3/28

The 3rd Annual Fun Run--Struttin' for Supplies Fundraiser
The kids raise money to provide boxed school supplies for the following year. It is so nice (as a parent and a teacher) having the school supplies pre-purchased and ready to go on the first day of school.
The weather had been so nice all week long, but on the day we have an outside activity, it was misty and cold!! Maddie insisted on wearing these shorts and a tank top even though I told her it was going to be cold.
Thank goodness Mommy came to school prepared! It didn't take her long to change her mind about her outfit!

Our fearless leader doing his part to dry off the slide!


Maddie was not thrilled about taking off her socks and shoes and walking on the wet grass. After I finally convinced her it was ok, we made it to the obstacle course... too bad that was as far as we got! After she saw the wet grass and dirt already on it, she would not get on it. We ended up just going back inside. Such a girly girl!!

When the 4th graders went out, it was still cool but not wet. It was much better than first thing in the morning. Mrs. York, Mrs. Batch and I had a blast going down the slide with the kids...I could definitely feel it by the next morning though!!

What a great idea... Help out the parents and the teachers! How funny that Maddie doesn't even want to get a little bit dirty... I'm right there with you!
