Fall Festival

Today was the Fall Festival at the girls' school. I fully expect them to come home completely high on sugar. The teachers probably laugh their hinies off as they hand them over to us. I remember a couple of years ago on Valentines Day at Madelyn's old daycare, I swear she ate sugar all day long and then when she came home, she was like a troll on heroin! Not that I've ever seen that.....I can just imagine. I wanted to strangle the teacher for letting her eat all that!!

Madelyn dressed as a 50's girl and Meredith went as a little cowgirl. I had to put Meredith's boots and ribbons in her hair twice. The little stinker....she just won't keep clothes on and her hair in a ponytail. Madelyn got dressed this morning and informed me that she didn't think she looked pretty. She was wearing a white boyish shirt and the whole 50's gear. (You'll see the pictures). The shirt wasn't all that boyish....it just certainly wasn't feminine. Now Madelyn Grace is certainly her MiMi's granddaughter. This child asks Mimi everytime she talks to her what she's wearing and when she sees her in person, she always compliments Mimi on her style. This girl likes to be very girly. The whole long hair, purse-carrying, princess dress wearing girly thing! I told her I'd make her a monogrammed "M" for her shirt like the ladies on Laverne and Shirley used to wear on their sweaters. She could wear that for actual Halloween night. She was impressed with that option since it made her outfit more girly. She wants it to be pink. I've actually enlisted Mimi for the job to do on her computer since my color cartridge is out of ink.

Meredith looked too precious!! I can't wait to go pick her up and see if she wore her clothes all day and what her freaky hair looks like! Here they are this morning before we left for school! Enjoy!
