Voting, Fine Arts and Read Across America




Yesterday was super Tuesday. William George and I picked the girls up from school, took them to dance and then went to the polls to vote. The girls wanted to go with us, but we had back-to-back activities, leaving no time for them to stand in line with us. George and I voted, and we had several talks about the nominees, strengths/weaknesses of each, and the importance of casting a vote.

This site will remain a politics-free zone... but wow. Trump? I feel like Trump's campaign and this entire nomination process is being orchestrated by Lorne Michaels, because surely it's all a comedic skit.

George and I picked the girls up from dance, and they did a quick change in the car so that we could get to their school for Fine Arts Night, which is a fundraiser where students sell artwork to replenish classroom supplies. We caught up with friends, looked at everyone's art work and purchased the girls' art. While wrapping up, the tornado siren sounded, and we all assumed the tornado position for about ten minutes. Afterward, we were ready to make our exit and make our way home for dinner.

During Fine Arts Night, Skip was attending a league meeting about George's upcoming baseball season. George is getting super excited.

Today the trio are celebrating our beloved Dr. Seuss by wearing mismatched clothes.



We have had The Lorax on constant rotation in the car over the last few weeks. Although the movie is a few years old, it holds up well, send a positive message about the importance of being a good steward.
