Winding down to summer

It is that crazy time of year when my kids have invitations to birthday parties galore, all of the last field days are happening, parent-teacher conferences, end of year parties, moving away parties, goodbye lunches, last sports games, end of year banquets and trying to get packed for summer vacations. There's a lot going on!

My next few blog posts contain a few things that I've been able to capture over the last couple of weeks as the school year is wrapping up:

COCO CHANEL - Here's a couple of photos of Bailey doing her final report for 4th grade. She was able to choose who she wanted to do a biography report about and dress as that person for 2 days while giving her report to her fellow 4th graders, parents and teachers. She chose Coco Chanel.



(Giving her report to a classmate)



Here is Coco with her signature "Little Black Dress", stylish hat, pearls galore and even a Chanel purse in tow. On her desk was a display of pearls, Chanel perfumes and hats like those Coco may have worn.

We wanted to curl her hair like Coco's but since she had swimming in p.e. that day directly before her report we decided hair curling wasn't happening...but she did scrunch her hair a bit so she'd have a few waves in honor of her mentor!

Next time you see Bailey ask her to give you her report on Coco!!!
