We've Got Spirit!

Spirit Week in a big deal at Annie's school...a whole week without uniforms!  But hard on a mom!  Hard to came up with all these crazy outfits!  But the worst was MISMATCHED DAY...you know how I feel about colored socks how about a whole crazy colorful outfit!  Yeah...it almost KILLED me to let her out of the house like this!  Her poor teacher having to look out onto a sea of kids all mismatched :)
When she got home I said,
"Why don't you run upstairs & change quick."  :)

Then I finally get her to take the stuff off
& I turn around & there is Rocco:
He really got them on by himself~
I didn't even know he could do that!
Very mad at that shoe!
Thank goodness the next day was
Super Hero Day! 
My mom helped me whip up a costume the night before while I was visiting her.  When Bo saw her cape he grabbed his gear too :)
You KNOW I love my super heros!

"Here, turn around now so
I can see your capes."
"Rocco!  Move it!"
You KNOW if I wanted a picture
of him I could NEVER get one :)
Anybody need to be rescued?
Hope you are all getting ready for Valentine's Day! 
I can't wait!!!

So cUTE! I had to laugh when I read about mismatch day. You know I teach school, and one year on mismatch day I had to leave school early because I was SO sick! I don't suppose it was really because the kids clothes made me DIZZY! But it sure was a funny coincidence!
Blessings!

These are so cute! Hannah only had spirit day this time so she wore mismatched red and black socks over her jeans and a raider shirt, so cute! Rocco is too stinkin cute... and I love the silver shoes too, no wonder he is frustrated with it, we all want to wear them! Happy Sunday! Have a starbucks for me! Theresa xoxo

I love it! There is no way I could do a week of mismatched clothes, costumes, etc. Uniforms make my life soooo much easier! Those superhero costumes are just PRECIOUS! and you know, I don't even remember spirit week at school? I do remember having to wear my field hockey or lacrosse uniform on game days and loved it because I did have to think about what I was going to wear. Am I putting too much though into this? I think so. Summing up: your kids are scrumptious and adorable as usual.

That is too adorable. I love the mismatched outfit. :) The majority must be pink of course.

Those pictures are adorable. What a fun week for her. I think that mismatched day would bother me too! Rocco putting on her things is cute too cute.

Call me crazy, but I'm digging the crazy mis-matched outfit! I LOVE to see what my 5 year old comes down stairs wearing every morning!

It's spirit week for us this week. We start with pj day... at least it's warmer. There's a day where each class has a color to wear. Poor 5th grader has to wear red... his least fav color. 3rd grade gets green... to match his eyes :)

Karen said...

Those Super Heroes can rescue me ANY time! Love the mis-matches, too.

Can do mom said...

The cutest Super Heroes ever! :)

I think Rocco needs a cape too.

Sweet.

Shelley said...

I am such a fashion maven (NOT) that my kids did mismatched day every day. Poor kids. Hey, I can barely dress myself.
