Spirit Week

What I knew would be a long, crazy week hasn't been that bad.  I've been able to catch up on sleep and yes, yesterday helped.  I did drop the girls off at school, went straight to the sofa and napped all morning.  I never, ever do that.  I'll admit I had to remind myself repeatedly I needed it instead of doing the laundry and working on other important things staring me in the face.

It all had to wait and I think we'll all be better off because I got some rest.

This week is Spirit Week at school.  The girls enjoy it much more than I do because they don't have to wear uniforms.  (For the record, uniforms are a Mom's dream! You never have to fuss over what your kids will wear).

Anyway, my girls have pretty much picked out their own clothes all week.

Monday ~ Country / Western Day .....


 (Olivia's horse I brought her back from Houston :)
 Olivia's eyes are cracking me up in this next picture.  Emma pretty much annoys her in the mornings - ha!
(excuse the picture quality - it is DARK when we go to school)

Tuesday ~ Literary Character Day .....

Nancy Drew - that bag was packed full of essential items to solve mysteries.
She stayed in character ALL DAY!
 Mary Ingalls :)
Wednesday ~ Favorite Team Day ....

 These pictures make me HAPPY!!!
 Emma (unfortunately) takes after her Dad and pulls for NC State. 

Thursday ~ Tacky Day ....



Tacky day has been their favorite.  I did their hair by putting a cup on top of their head and gathering the hair all around.  Olivia could have cared less how it looked.  She just thought it was totally awesome to have a cup on her head :)

Tomorrow is blue and gold day to support our school.  Simple blue and gold day. 

What's even more exciting (for me) is that Monday it's back to uniforms.  Yippee!!!
