Breakfast and Book Fair

This morning at the girls' school they had breakfast for parents and students who came in to shop at the Book Fair on the last day.  The breakfast was from 8:00- 9:30.  I RSVP'd for the early time so I could just go into work late. 

The girls' dad had already bought them 4 books each on Tuesday after PTSO. So I was a little disappointed that I wasn't gonna be able to buy them the books that they wanted on Friday.  Anyways...

We got to school right on time.  The tardy bell rings at 7:45 and we got to the school at 7:40 which gave them just enough time to walk to their classrooms.  This was quite a change for them as they are usually one of the first ones at school since I have to drop them off at 7:05 in order for me to get to work on time. 
We walked around the Book Fair and even though their dad bought everything off their "wish list" we were able to find some more books that they wanted. 

I had to basically force Audrey to actually buy a book.  All she wanted to get was activity books.  Audrey is very smart and a good reader, but like most kids she's kinda lazy and doesn't want to read unless you make her. 

Madilyn on the other hand found about 5 books that she wanted me to buy.  That child loves to read. 

After we bought out the Book Fair we had some breakfast in the Teacher's Lounge.  The girls thought it was so cool that we got to hang out in the Teacher's Lounge. 

We had donuts and muffin, orange juice and hot apple cider.  I feel sorry for their teacher who have to deal with my sugared up kids for the next few hours.  Once they have sugar, they turn into wild, hyper children. 
I was also a sneaky mom this morning too,  Like I said, Madilyn loves to read, which is one reason we bought her a Kindle for Chirstmas.  But by walking around the Book Fair with her she was able to point out all the books she wanted and now I can go add them to her Kindle.  She was upset at me because I wouldn't buy her all the books she wanted, but soon enough she'll get over it.
