Red Ribbon Week

At the end of October, the boys school celebrated Red Ribbon Week.  Red Ribbon Week is a time when the schools teach anti-drug lessons and do lots of fun activities to promote saying NO to drugs!  On Monday, it was wear red day...  It also so happened to be the first day of early voting, so after school, we took the boys and waited about 45 minutes to cast our votes.  The boys LOVED pressing the "cast ballot" button and felt such American pride!
 Day 2 was hat day!  This was a hard pick for the boys!  They have a lot of hats to pick from... Mavs, Cowboys, Packers, HU, Rangers, Creek, Under Armour, and loads of non-baseball cap hats like Davy Crockett, hard hat, etc.  After MUCH debate and agony, they picked their favorite football team hats!  And they HAD to wear the team shirt too!
 The next day was bandana and/or headband day.  Jacob wanted to be have a cowboy bandana and Rylan wanted a sports bandana.  They thought it was cool!
 The last day was crazy hair day!  We got some spike gel for Jacob which he thought was hilarious and "very James Durbin."  Rylan was set on wearing the Thing 1 wig from a few Halloweens ago.  I still love that wig!
So they had fun, looked cute and got to learn a little bit more about saying NO to drugs!
