Last night was skills night at Elizabeth's school. I'd never heard of skills night so wasn't real sure what to expect.
Well Let me tell you I smiled from ear to ear all night. Her group started at 7:15 and it said to arrive early so that you could walk around the school and look at all of their art projects that they had done throughout the year. So we got there around 630. Well it didn't take too long to check out the art. So we stood in the hall with the other 300 plus parents, grandparents, aunt's, uncle's and KIDS. Elizabeth in full fashion was bouncing off the walls in anticipation for her big night.
So we get into the gym and the kids are running about. We found seats for us and take our seats. Then the curtain that seperates the cafeteria from the gym comes down. So in a bit and a lot of squirming from timmy. The show FINALLY starts. We started out with everyone having to stand and say the pledge of alligance. Then the "mini-singer" sang the National Anthem and then the whole group goes into singing a whole montage of patriotic songs. Mr. B (the music teacher) had the whole group of kids doing such a great job. He is the best music teacher these kids could ever ask for.
So then after the singing was over they start JAMMIN. Mr. B put on some music and the PE teacher, Mr. Snyder starts having the kids on the floor doing all sorts of things they have been doing. It was just so neat. The kids that were on the stage were dancing to the music playing and Mr. B comes out in his tails and Multi Color Hair! The kids have so much fun with him.
So after about 45 minutes the whole thing winds down, and we usher out of the gym. So what do my 2 little reds do. They walk off hand in hand down the hall. Elizabeth being the proud big sister she is and showing Timmy all about her school. These kids suprise me at every turn of the day.
So we went out to eat afterwards and both the kids were pretty good. We went to a mexican restaurant, and the waitress, mexican, was giving Elizabeth spanish lessons. She was such a nice lady!
