This morning I dropped the kids off at school, they are both bummed since they were hoping they wouldn't have school today. We got a note home a week ago stating that we, as parents, need to be sure "that appropriate school staff is on hand to supervise children" today. After all, the teachers might strike. The fact that it was so well planned really strikes me as funny, the note itself was REALLY funny. Unfortunately I didn't keep a copy of it. It was funnier yet this morning as all the parents were having a little parking lot party to see if school would open this morning. I'm not sure if this sort of planning is a common occurence, they don't really seem to be big on planning in general, or if this was a major bluff on the part of the teachers.
Last weekend we took the kids to a fundraiser held by our landlord. She runs a horse (and dog) rescue farm a few minutes down the road. They had a live band, chili, german beer, and a huge bonfire. Liz got plenty of dancing time, and we all enjoyed hearing Italian versions of American songs. Plus, we helped to support a great cause. www.zedanranch.de
