To get Emma excited to start kindergarten, and me too, about the upcoming school year I decided to throw a "Back to School" themed dinner. It didn't really help with my excitement level of having both my girls in school full time and the every morning routine of "Eat breakfast, stop arguing, no T.V. until you are ready for school, brush your teeth, LET ME FIX YOUR HAIR, NO you may not wear purple leggings with a red top go pick something else, WHERE'S MY COFFEE CUP???, stop fighting, go brush your teeth, don't mess up your hair I just fixed it, WHY ARE YOU STILL WEARING PURPLE LEGGINGS?" Every morning its organized chaos and every morning after I get home from dropping the girls to school I think "Wow, that was a crazy hour." So, to get us all motivated for that craziness I served a back to school dinner. The centerpiece was clearly stuff school related. Globe, markers, glue, crumpled paper etc...
The girls went through the lunch line and got their school inspired meal of pizza, jello, raw veggies, Capri sun and a piece of cake for dessert.
I even found Styrofoam plates that resembled lunch trays. The girls had a lot of fun eating their meal and wanted to eat school food the rest of the week. Can't believe both my babies are in school this year, gosh I am getting old. Back to school pictures coming soon....
Enjoy your family~
