Celebrating Our 100th Day




Earlier this week we celebrated our 100th day of school!


The girls look forward to this day every year.
Its just a silly reason to add a bit of fun to an ordinary day.



Of course a day like this calls for donuts

 Obviously.


We built structures with 100 marshmallows and 100 toothpicks.



Oh how I loved this silly project.

It's been way too long since we've had  time to just relax and enjoy the day.
I've been sort of a drill sergeant lately.
With Kait and Clara being in the 'upper grades'
it's getting harder and harder to have time for the 'fun stuff''.
This project reminded me of the good ol' days when we did stuff for school just for the sake of FUN.
I need to leave more time for opportunities like this.


We created pictures with 100 star stickers




The girls baked cupcakes 
ALL BY THEMSELVES.








It really was a delightful day.

Like I said, I need to leave more time 
for a little more fun in our days.

It takes 20 minutes to string 100 Fruit Loops into a necklace, 
but it adds buckets of smiles.

Hope you get to squeeze in a little bit of fun in your ordinary day!
