Horrid Hair Day

To raise $$ for a Canadian Winter Olympic hopeful, the school where I do Grandparent Reading had Crazy Hair Day. ALL the kids, teachers,and the Grandparent Readers participated and there was some kind of wacky hair! Here's my little kindys, "Please-Don't-Take-My-Picture, P" and
Eager E. Her crazy hair was so cute with ribbons in her stick-out braids.

Isn't Ian Mac so cute with his spiked up? I was thrilled that it was Crazy Hair cause mine was actually just bed head spiked with gobs of gel and a few bug pins stuck in it - NOT pretty...


The 6th graders came around to take my buddy B's photo. He was so hoping to win The Best Crazy Hair contest...
B' loves to ask "Can I tell you something?" and then he'll tell you a whole string of astoundingly accurate facts. So, B, "Can we tell YOU something?" Your creation is fabulous!

Not to be outdone the Grandparent Coordinators got into the act too. That's Alluring Anne, Sassy Senior Sharon, and Maeve's Mom, Marie, (pronounced Marrie.) Marie has an Irish brogue and my favorite thing she says is "I'll just put the kettle on for you, love." Would make anyone want to drink that tea.


This teacher was getting a headache wearing this crazy green... um.. artichoke.. lettuce.. Conehead wig, but she did it for the cause. I wish I'd gotten a pic of the pink plastic pig-tail wearing one who looked like Cindy Lou Who and the red one who was just indescribable.

This is Grandparent Good Sport who let us attach the blue ponytail to his hair... unlike Wimped-out Walter who would not hear of adding anything to his coif. Whutz up with that, Walter?
Not to be outdone, "Just Say the Word Jackolynn got into the spirit too! That's her grandson's keychain in her hair along with her smarty-pants side-tail.
We all had a blast. Make your reservations and get tickets today for the 2010 WINTER Olympics in Vancouver!

Love your blog, Jane. Wish I had the time and talent to do likewise. Maybe someday. . .

Great seeing you at 51% -- what a great group of friends we have, eh?
