STUFF

Allie had her friend Hallie over yesterday for a playdate. They played GREAT together. Allie rarely gets friends over...there aren't girls her age in our neighborhood so she often gets stuck without a friend. Jake's just show up on our door step or in our back yard since they all live less than a block away. Allie was delighted to play yesterday.

Hansen is having a coin drive at school this week. Day 2 and the kids have collected $1994.00!! Each class is competing with the other classes for the chance to make the principal into a human hot dog!! We told parents that we'd welcome their tax deductible checks during this drive, so about 1/2 is actually parental donations. Jake was bummed...his class hasn't won either day. They were sure that they won today with $99 in change, but another 1st grade class had $75 in change & $300 in parent's checks! I keep telling him that maybe another day his class will win!!?? What matters is the overall total, not the daily total...we'll see how he fares on October 27th!
