"bunny sitting", play date, rocking reader and Hananh Soots

After school on Friday was the day Amanda had volunteered to bring on the 2nd grade bunny to watch over the weekend. His name is Whiskers. It has been really funny watching them with the bunny over the weekend not to mentioned Amanda cleaning up after the bunny.
Today was the day when Amanda invited a couple of friends over for a play date and some crafts. When her best friend from school arrived she had a little brother (Anthony) who was 4, needless to say Anthony & Jake were best buds and Anthony convinced his mom he needed to stay and play with Jake. It was a blast! Here are some of the custom cards the girls made

Jake with his new best friend (Madison's little brother) Anthony
Friday was the day Lynn and I volunteered for "Rocking reader". This is where parents take turns coming to class and reading a book to the class. We also did a quick little project (making a discover book) and gave out little treat bags with popcorn and raisins. The kids loved the story, craft and of course the treat bag. It was really fun reading to over 20- 2nd graders and seeing how enthused they were to read

Of course Jake made some new friends and all the boys wanted to set on the couch with him after class

When Lynn returned from PA, she brought Amanda the coolest wig (for Halloween). We have our on little Hananh Soots now
