Pajama Day!







We had a wonderful visit with Tara Sullivan, author of The Bitter Side of Sweet, Golden Boy, and Treasure of the World, books that inspire us to go out and make the world a better place. She did large group presentations, writing workshops, signed books, and answered lots of questions. She also found out her frenzy, and she's a Spinner! Spinners are creative, so that sure sounds right. It was a great day!










Thanks SO much to our Surf City WalMart for donating cases and cases and cases of water for our Color Run Monday!
