You're a STAR!

Henry was chosen as STAR Student in his class this week!

To him it means being the line leader and wearing a special ribbon.

To me it means sending a fun star themed lunch to surprise him:)
I used my trusty cookie cutters and secretly got to work making his lunch shine!

*lunch meat and flour tortilla stars*

*brownie stars*

*and apple stars*

Do you ever make your kiddos special snacks to celebrate special occasions?!?

I Love a Rainy Day...

if we don't have plans for the day...

 if the lightening is not too bad...

 if the wind doesn't blow away my garden flag...

 if there are a few breaks in the rain...

 if we can still go on the porch...

 if I can take a few pictures {without my camera getting wet}...

 if the power stays on...

 I love a rainy day. Do you?
