The Booster Auction

March also means the annual Shorecrest Booster auction. An incredibly dedicated and creative team of parents and community members work on this massive project for months and it is a rare event at Shorecrest in which all I have to do is show up. This year's theme was Vegas Rat Pack and the feather centerpiece was a showstopper. All of the money raised goes right back into the accounts of all the student groups I support via grant requests. I have no idea how we'd be able to run our extracurriculars without their financial support. Humbled and thankful to the Boosters, especially outgoing president Kip and his wife, the auction chair, Andrea.

 After the auction we went out in Shoreline with many of our parent friends. Their elementary school had their auction the same night. With babysitters at home, the parents got to let loose a bit with some karaoke. It was super fun and so awesome to be out on the town with so many of our parent friends and neighbors.

 

 Today the neighborhood kids played all afternoon. The boys started digging - their plan was to dig holes and then try to "bowl" a soccer ball into them.

  

Meanwhile, Charlotte and Margaret made a stop-motion animated video with My Little Ponies and the iPad.
