School Sale ...

Last weekend was Linville's annual school sale.  I went to help Hadassah's class do their class project.  We dipped marsh mellows and pretzel sticks in milk and dark chocolate.  We also made mints.  We put them in fall bags and then into baskets.  They sold these at the school sale for $110.00 X 5!  The kids were happy with the money they could raise for their school!


Hadassah loves school and is really enjoying 4th grade!!!  She's making mints.
At the school sale, they had face painting!  The kids loved that!
Lady bug ...
Tiger face ...
Matthew came and asked for some money because he wanted to get his face painted.  I gave him a couple dollars and he came back a few minutes later with some kid gadgets and toys.  I thought he was getting his face painted with those dollars???  Oh yeah, he needed a few more dollars and came back looking like this! I think the artist did a great job!  We could easy tell what this was to look like!

We bought Matthew's class project too.  $90.00 X 5.  (Both classes did 5 each.)  They put recipes and a picture of each child in a small photo album for their first grade project.  Matthew wanted his recipe to be his breakfast ... hot chocolate and toast!!!  I thought this was a neat project and I can't wait to try some recipes that the kids in first grade really like!

The sale was a success!  I was tired when we got home but we ended the day with playing settlers here with our friends, John and Ruth Glick!  We are getting back into this game again.  We've had some good games already and it's defenently a game for the fall/winter months!  If you need someone to challenge, come around!!!
