We Got Spirit...


Yes we do. We got spirit, how about you?

This week has been spirit week at school. Here are the girls in their cheer shirts ready to start the day full of school spirit. There friend D is sporting their school "spirit shirts".  They enjoy spirit week as it gives them a break from their uniforms. Spirit Week included "Rock Star" day, "Pajama Jama" day, "Sports" day, "Super Hero" day, and School Pride day. 

M was almost sent home for being out of dress code on "sports" day. He wore jeans and a t-shirt. When asked he said he was Tony Hawk - a skateboarder. Coach then said it was good. The students don't have to dress for spirit week they can opt to wear their normal school uniforms which consist of tan or navy blue bottoms and a solid color polo shirt. So their is lots of flexibility with their uniforms.

R came home Wednesday all ready to quit cheer after she made such a big production of asking me everyday since school started if she could join cheer. She was crying and upset because another student accidently put black puffy paint on the back of her shirt and then her shorts were two sizes too big.  I switched her shorts with J's and then traded them in for a smaller pair. I pinned J's shorts so they would stay on her butt for today and then I get to spend the weekend altering them. The school told me that their wasn't anything smaller for her. I don't know what the other Kindergardners are going to do. When I dropped them off at school only the older girls were wearing the shorts, the younger ones were wearing other pants. Life with the girls is so full of drama.

For those wondering yes M looks just as dashing as the girls do. I sprayed blue in his hair and painted his face up to match the girls. He wore his "spirit" shirt today with his normal uniform bottoms. It's been the only day I could get his hair to stand up since S cut it.
