101 Dalmations

Hailey's teacher decided she wanted to take on the task of putting together a play for her class to celebrate the 101th day of school.  Why, I don't know, but Hailey was so excited about it!  She loves to perform "on the stage".  She came home from school and told me she was one of the puppies and that she needed to start working on her lines.  We practiced everynight, until she had them down.  On the day of the play, a girl in her class, who had a part was home sick.  So Hailey volunteered to do it along with her part.  She memorized the lines the morning of the play and did such a great job!

Daddy Daughter date

Just before leaving for the "Sock Hop"

The Elementary School does a daddy/daughter night and a mother/son night.  The mother/son night was always on Sunday at the bowling alley...why they did that I don't know.  So Braxton and I never went.  The daddy/daughter night is always a friday night and it's a dance.  Last year Hailey did not want to go, but wanted Mike to take her out to dinner and shopping instead (just like her mom).  However, when her friend, Gabby came back from the dance telling her how wonderful it was she was really upset that she chose not to go.  So this year as soon as it was announced at school, she was sure to let Mike know they were going and for him to put it on his calendar.  Every day she asked "how much longer to the sock hop"?  The night finally came and they had a lot of fun.  Dancing, games and food.  She let me know she definately wanted to go again next year!
