We're off to see the Wizard!

We're going to see the Wizard of Oz tonight! At the movie theater!  You can check here to see if there is a showing near you.

Mommy and Aunt Trisha are taking all three girls. We'll edit this post tomorrow with our movie review ;)

Movie Reviews

Morgan: I loved the Wizard of Oz!  It's my favorite movie so far.

Madison: It was great!  My favorite parts were when the Cowardly Lion sang his song, when he jumped out the window, when Dorothy freed the Scarecrow, when the Wicked Witch melted, and the song The Yellow Brick Road.

Hazel: I didn't like the scary parts!  My favorite parts were when the Lion sang his song and in the beginning when Dorothy got Toto back.

Hazel Day!

Today was Hazel Day at preschool!  Hazel made a poster to tell all about herself. She included her favorite food (macaroni and cheese), her favorite color (green), her family, her pet, her friends, her favorite book (Are You My Mother?), and what she wants to be when she grows up  (a dentist). Mommy came to class and read Are You My Mother to everyone. Hazel also shared some books with the other kids in class. Mommy stayed most of the day and saw all the fun things Hazel does all day. She got to sing songs, dance, go to the playground, play with playdough, and see all the kids paint colorful apples!

The Tooty Ta Song!

Mommy came to Hazel's class last night for a parent night. The teachers played this song and all the kids AND the grownups danced! It was really funny!

Everyone get up and dance along!

Family Game Night--Yahtzee

Last night we all played Yahtzee(well, not Dennis).  We also had shrimp cocktail with it for a yummy treat! It didn't last two minutes.  Hazel and Mom were on a team and Hazel did the rolling.  She was very good at it too!  Her and mom almost won, but they were beat by MADISON!  We decided that every Friday will be game night from now on. Then we don't have to rush to get ready for bed. Hazel already picked the game for this Friday.  We'll be playing SpongeBob Bingo! Check back to find out who won.

Madison's Good Day

I had a great day at school. I went to the office for a positive referral. The Vice Principal called my mom. He told her that I am a good student, that I am prepared for class, and never get into trouble. I got two prizes; one for a good referral and one for getting four pride tickets. I got gooey noisy putty and a tiny stuffed football.

Inspired by Dennis . . .

The girls loved Dennis' collages so much that they all wanted to make one too!  Hazel even helped cut pictures out of a magazine. They are going to take their collages to their teachers tomorrow.

This one is Hazel's picture. She made three "people" using all kinds of cool stuff!

Madison picked all kinds of cool things for her picture and she added decoration with marker.

Morgan decided to go with an "eye" theme for her picture.

Morgan may have been inspired a bit by mommy's picture:

Art Time with Dennis

Dennis had fun gluing pictures today!  He doesn't seem to like messy art (like painting) that much so we tried something nice and clean today. Dennis made two pictures using paper cut into random shapes and clippings from magazines (we keep a little box of them--I need to refill it now!). On the green page, he colored with crayon first. On the white one, he took turns gluing and using markers.

And here are the finished works of art!  (I used the scanner this time, instead of just taking a picture)
