back to school party!



Every year since the kids have been little we have had a back to school party. Over the years we have partied with different friends and it is always so much fun!

We eat disappointing food on school lunch trays. the food always includes chicken nuggets because that is what they serve at schhol lunch at least twice a week. Maybe three. Then we have mushy peas or mushy fruit. If anyone complains I say "duh! It's suppose to be gross. It's school lunch!"

This year we partied it up with Corey's high school friends Darin and Amy. Darin helped me serve the food. He always good for interesting conversation and a laugh. (After we left I hid chicken nuggets under his pillow (his wife let me) Three days later he still hadn't noticed! ba ha,

Here we are serving the food.



The kids in line with thier trays. They MUST wait for us to serve them. It's the rule.

Kate and this little cutie, Aliyah

After dinner we have a little lesson on "Beeing" aware, kind, a hard worker. And then we play BINGO!!!!! We adore it. It gets loud and crazy. We don't start over every time someone gets a bingo. We just keep going until every board is full and it starts to get wild with every kid screaming Bingo like crazy.





Cheyenne, one of Justine's bffs and our play mill buddy! It is SOOOOO fun because all the big kids LOVE the bingo too. Over the years the prizes had to start including mini candy bars and some more grown up things. If anyone has trinkets (like McDonald toys) that they don't want anymore drop them my way for next year! The more the better because we love to torcher Corey with lots of prizes to hand out. 



The Bingo game is all with little back to school pictures. A notebook, pens, school crossing, things like that. I made it and just laminated it. 


The cute girl behind is on her way to Spain on her mission! Awesome. And Savannah, the cute girl in front is one of the very nicest girls around. Love her.






Corey's job is to pass out the prizes. They are all sorts of little things. 







Love these fun times with my kids!
