Wow! What a FANTASTIC WEEK!
We began our Read-Across-America Week with Green Eggs and Ham created by my teenagers!
It is kind of a family tradition. Plus they get the extras!
(p.s. Not real eggs: Pretzels, white chocolate, and m&ms)
We enjoyed 2 guest readers on Monday,
Kristin, Kayden's mom and Annette.
Both work at the High School.
Thank you, Ladies!
