(3 out of 4) Grandparent's Day

We know it isn't really "Grandparent's Day", but G saw 3 of the 4 today! Pa Pa is the only one who "missed out"! ha ha! The day started with Poppa and Nanna being "chauffeured" (by me!) to the airport for their extended visit to Hawaii! The little devils! (no, truly, they DESERVE some R&R in paradise!) Nanna started packing 3-4 days ago, so I know she was excited!
After the airport, we needed to go to Murfreesboro to pick up some items from my friend Jill. So, while in the neighborhood, we stopped by MNE to visit Ma Jo! The phones, students and teachers "left her alone" long enough for us to snap a photo! hee hee....she is a busy gal at work! Ma Jo gave us some lunch money, which we GREATLY appreciated!

Starting next Thursday, G's enrichment program will start. She is really going to enjoy the class, she spent some time yesterday decorating her class notebook (they were sent home with the parents Tuesday night so they could be snazzy for the first day of school!) Hers is fancy, of course! :) We stopped at Toodles and "ordered" a personalized lunchbox, since she will be taking lunch each day and won't have a back pack. Ma Jo, G's lunch "purse" is fancy like yours!!!! We will take a photo with it before she enters Arts for Life next week (of course!!!!)

Not sure if I mentioned this or not, but I will be putting together a yearbook of sorts for Arts for Life. This will be easy-peasy for me, since I will be snapping away with the camera anyway! This can be my "room mother" type of contribution to the group! I'm sure those kiddos will be sick of me and my camera by Christmas!!! hee hee....but I hope the book will be a happy memory keeper for them for years and years to come......!

Tomorrow we will do most of our normal studies, but will also include some "holiday history"....explaining WHY we will have a free day on Monday! This is something I think I should have learned when I was in school.....we never really cared WHY we had a day off, we just wanted the day off! Speaking of, we hope everyone has a safe and fun holiday.....
