It has been crazy busy around the Terrell household for the last 4 days or so...we are al exhausted but we are finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel! We have school supply lists completed, school clothes bought, and we find out who the girls teacher is tomorrow. (We are keeping them together at least one more year!) Today Kristen helped put on the Teacher Appreciation Lunch at our church. She & Ann gathered donations for door prizes and Eugene (guy in charge) was thrilled with what we were able to accomplish. I think the teachers and staff all enjoyed the meal and getting gifts and just visiting as one big group! Tomorrow night Kristen is putting on the Back 2 School Bash (part of the school bond thing...) we will be having a concert by Marlow students &/or Marlow grads, as well as free hot dogs & cokes, they can also register to vote, pick up info on absentee ballots, buy Support Our School t-shirts, get a free SOS bracelet and enjoy the fellowship with other parents & kids. It is going to be a the gradeschool cafeteria and will start before Meet the Teacher night kicks off and will last 30 min longer. SO, hopefully we will be able to connect with lots of parents about the importance of a bond! I forgot, we will also have a short survey that registered voters can fill out. We've also put longer more detailed surveys around town at strategic locations. Enough bond talk...
Karsten is a hoot! That boy is into everything and fast!!! We had a special event after church last night and I think he entertained everyone while they were eating their brownies & ice cream! Sydney also charmed the group as she was able to run & play chase with the other kids - quite a few tears around the tables over that! Mak played with Allie - she has such an imagination! She & Daddy have been playing a lot the last few days with Swiper & Dora...she got so frustrated with Steve when he decided Swiper felt bad over stealing everything and decided to give it all back. That was NOT in her playbook!
School starts Thursday! I haven't decided if I am excited or if I am just going to bawl like a baby that first day of all day school...we shall see! Wednesday we are having some girls over for a back to school swim party! Mak is so excited! It ought to be a lot of fun! That's it for now...
