My Red Girl

This week is Red Ribbon week at Em's school. The Red Ribbon Campaign is also a CALL TO ACTION! This week-long campaign provides multiple opportunities for students, parents, teachers and others to join together to address the alcohol, tobacco, other drug and violence related issues or concerns in their community.

Each day of the week, the children are encouraged to take part in that days activities as a way to keep up interest and have fun while learning about this very serious issue.

Monday - Sports Day - students could wear any sports related clothing.
Tuesday - Funny Hat Day
Wednesday - Come to school in your Pajamas Day (the students seem to be particularly fond of this)
Thursday - Red Day - students wear as much red as they can. The class who wears the most red wins an ice cream party.
Friday - Halloween Costume Day

Since Em owns almost nothing in red, I had to improvise. I decorated the child in red ribbons from head to toe!

OH. MY. EDWARD!!!

I am never going to survive this movie!!!

What song was #1 on the Billboard Charts the day you were born? Find out HERE.

And what do you know! This happens to be one of my favorite songs! Aquarius was #1 on my birth date, May 10, 1969. I don't know what this video is from but it's very cute!

Tis the Season!

No, not that season! Fall! My favorite time of year. I just love when the heat breaks, and the mornings get chilly, and the air has a crispness to it. I love watching the leaves change, and the days get shorter (I've always been a night owl)and I love pumpkin! Anything pumpkin but especially Starbucks Pumpkin Spiced lattes! Yum! And then, of course, there's my favorite holiday...Halloween! I always decorate early so I can enjoy all the frightful fun for as long as possible. This weekend Em and I put up our inside decorations and I snapped a few pictures to share with you. I took these in B+W with an orange highlight. Enjoy!
