A+ For America

Clarissa's school (and other Catholic schools) are doing Catholic Schools Week. Each day they have an activity planned either during or after school hours along with out-of-uniform days all week. Clare loves her uniform but like all kids she loves to dress up. I thought it would be fun to include Kimberly in on the dress up days.

Catholic School Week started yesterday January 30th right after church. So today is the first school day during the fun week but officially the 2nd day. Today's theme is Red, White, and Blue Jeans- Showing American pride with your red, white, and blue colors. "Catholic Schools Week 2011 clebrates the fact that Catholic schools are an added value for the nation." The activity for the day is a morning prayer service will be held at 9:30 in the gym for grades k-8 to kickoff Catholic School's Week.

On the way to school us girls enjoyed singing different songs about love and America. Clarissa sang a beautiful song about God being in her life. Kimberly made up as song about Jesus her best friend and how beautiful America is. Here is a picture of both Clarissa and Kimberly showing their red, white, and blue pride.

-Fun Note-

Clarissa and I where looking for a perfect shirt to wear for Red, White, and Blue day. Clarissa was happy that I went threw the summer clothes last night and found the shirt she decorated for the 4th of July last year. I think its great that we had it a little big last year and so she could get a little bit more wear out of it. Kimberly made one too but picked this shirt to wear today.
