Snow Storm/100th Day of School/Valentines Day Party

Snow, snow go away! Not only has the snow infringed upon my winter vacation plans, but it created a major time crunch, mesh-everything-into-one-day situation! Wednesday was supposed to be the big 100th Day of School celebration and Thursday was supposed to be the Peas' Valentines Day Party. Well, since yet another major snow storm was in the forecast for Thursday we had to reschedule the party for Wednesday along with the 100th day festivities. I was scheduled to volunteer at the party and provide the juice for the kiddos. Not only that, but I had to make 40 valentines (20 valentines X 2 Peas) AND count out 200 items (100 items X 2 Peas) AND find outfits to make R & E look 100 years old. Because of the coming snow storm I had one less day to do all of this. I couldn't let my boys down, so we did what mamas and daddies do every single day...we made it happen!

Ryan and Evan each counted out 100 pennies to take to school


While I tackled the Minions (from Ryan)
 "You are one in a MINION Valentine"

And the fishbowls (from Evan)
 "Glad we're in the same school"
 Thanks Pinterest and Etsy!


Ryan and Evan and their classmates dressed as "old men" and little "old ladies"
So cute! I couldn't get R & E to keep on their glasses or mustaches though.


And Thursday, just as predicted, we were held hostage by the snow again! Le sigh....

I had a blast at Ryan and Evan's school party.  It was my first time volunteering since I am  usually working when they have something, but since I was on break it was a perfect time to get involved. It was a lot of work! Twenty pre-schoolers all hyped up on sweets and running around looking 100 years old? Whew! I may or may not have left the party and headed home for a nap!

  1. These are great pictures. Mom is so good with arts and crafts. Perfect themes for the boys to celebrate the festivities. Looks like fun was had by all, including Ryan and Evan's mom (smile).
