Teagan aka Dr. Seuss style blue with pink trees. Smile
Rayle a Wolverine ish style. Orangey/yellow with black tips
Yeah today is Friday, and after school a start to a WHOLE week off. To finish out spirit week, today is school spirit, wear you blues and reds to show your love for Noah Webster Basic School! Today is also the Thanksgiving party, where they get to sample PIE!!! I told Teagan and Rayle that they couldn't have any, but I am pretty sure they aren't going to listen. Yesterday I made a popcorn turkey so they could have that in class too. The office staff thought they were pretty cool. Happy Friday everyone!!!
Today we weren't really feeling all filled with spirit, so I let them slum it up. J/K today was pajamas day and crazy socks. I don't think Teagan did the socks, but I know Rayle put on a pair of my socks. He loves wearing different crazy socks! I tried to do their hair like it was all messed up from sleep, not sure how well it turned out though.
Today is twin day, which I know all about. J/K However I am asked often if Teagan and Rayle are twins, yes they look a lot alike (because they are brothers) but no they are not. Teagan and Rayle are twenty-five months apart. Anyways, so today at school they were suppose to dress the same as another person, instead of tracking down a classmate to play matchy matchy, I just made it easy and had Teagan and Rayle dress like twins. And I must admit, they are pretty darn handsome!!!
Today is Decades Day with the choices of 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's. I did the 50's in the past with Teagan white tee with jeans rolled up (check back here), but I wanted to do more than that. I loved growing up in the 80's and being born in 81 I do remember the side pony tail, shirt rolled to the side, big hair, and Cyndi Lauper was really my all time FAV!!! With boys though I think its hard to come up with ideas. Girls 50's poodle skirt pink ladies jacket, 60's pencil skirt cool hats, 70's flowery dresses bell bottoms, 80's BIG hair t-shirt neck cut out pull to the side. With boys I was coming up blank. I decided we will do 80's overalls one strap down, anything that would make Michael Jackson jump out from his grave MC Hammer pants. (Did you sing it? I did) When I went to Goodwill, there were NO options that could work, it was sparse pickings seriously! I really didn't have time to track down apparel for school dress up. So I knew that Teagan has two pair of cords and Rayle could borrow one. I have plain white tees and so went and I got a tie-dye kit and made up some shirts. I also found some patches to go with the theme. Most importantly the boys loved them.
