Books and Beyond

I have been working on a program at the girls school called Books and Beyond. The kids are suppose to read for 6 weeks, 6 nights a week for 30 minutes. If they do their name goes into a drawing to shoot silly string at Mr. Brown and to go bowling with Ms. Wallace the principal. These are pictures of the assembly where the names were picked.

The Jazz Bear came to the assembly and was a rock star. He was so much fun, the kids went wild.






This is Amy Renola with me, we have done this program for 2 years. She is amazing at planning and really fun to work with.

Anna and Olivia were the cheerleaders for the assembly, they absolutely loved it. I thought they would be nervous to be in front of the whole school but they were great.

Love that my girls got to be involved in it. So fun to get the pictures from other Moms and see my cute girls.

We took 50 kids bowling and for pizza after the assembly.

Poor Mr. Brown, he is a stud to let the kids do this. It was really a magical day, so happy when it was over and a success. Lots of happy kids.
