Diversity and Football

This weekend was pretty fun. On Friday night the kids's school had a diversity night. They showcased lots of art work done by the kids, provided desserts from around the world, and had culturally inspired craft stations. My kiddos are all about the crafts. We showed up pretty late to the event, but still managed to hit all of the stations. We even ended up bringing some supplies home to work on some more.

My favorite of the crafts...the dragon mask.

On Saturday it was the 8th annual dad's football game. All the dads from our elementary school were invited to play against the dads of the other elementary school from our neighborhood. It was held at the high school football field and it was a really fun event. There were balloons, noise makers, cheerleaders, music, and lots of school spirit. It was so fun to see neighbors, friends, and teachers. They sold delicious caramel/oreo apples as a fundraiser. They even sliced them for us so that we could enjoy them at the game. It was quite the event. Even though our team lost, I'm so glad that we went. Chris didn't play this year, but after seeing how fun it was he will probably give it a try next year.
