Spirit Week is held at Bay City Baptist school each year in January. Throughout the week, the students are encouraged to "dress up" according to the assigned theme day. (ie: pajama day, twin day, crazy hair day, etc.) This particular day was 'Most Spirited Fan' day and the students were asked to support their favorite team by dressing as the most spirited fan. As you can see by this picture, Morgan is supporting the Green Bay Packers.
Lauren decided to dress in red/white/black and support her school team. - Bay City Bobcats!
It's really neat to see all the kids participate and get in on the fun. Throughout the week, the elementary kids are judged by a panel of high school students for the 'best/unique' costume for their class. The winners are then given a huge candy bar! At the end of the week, they decide on who was the most spirited all week, and these students are then given the grand prize; this year the grand prize winners were allowed to be principal for the day. Below is a picture of Lauren and her two buddies getting ready to stand before the judges.
Here is a picture of Morgan getting ready to take part for her class. This was a pretty exciting day for her as she won the prize for "Most Spirited Fan" for her class!-- The coveted candy bar!! She was stoked!! (And so was I!!! Because as any mother who has ever had to get their child ready for spirit week knows, from helping them pick our their chosen outfit, to applying face paint, to shopping at various thrift stores to find that just right 'most unique ' item to complete their outfit- Whew! I get exhausted just thinking about next year's spirit week!) But really, it was a great deal of fun to see the kids creative juices flowing in full force as they mentally pictured how they wanted each day's outfit to come across. However, I'm starting to plan now for next year's outfits. -- Yeah right!!

OK so here is my comment that you have been waiting for. The kids look great, but that goes without saying. Morgan is a "mini Debbie" now whether thats a good thing or not. She will have to be a Homecoming queen for life I guess. Lauren I just want to bring her home, now can I? Tyler is our future heart breaker.
My only comment is "who is that ugly dude with the cowboy hat in the family pic?". He looks like something that crawled out of the swamps of Sobieski. Does he have rabies?
