Pirate Rachel

We do princesses pretty good in our home. So, when I noticed Rachel was supposed to dress up as a pirate this past Tuesday for school, I was stumped. But then I thought of a few friends and emailed them to see if they could help me out. Aren't friends wonderful??? Because of course they did! We borrowed various items from different friends. And Rachel was given the actual dress to keep. The girl who used to own it is 8 years old now and it doesn't fit her anymore. She was so sweet to give it to Rachel. So, now Rachel can be a pirate any day she wants... She's standing really awkward because she wanted everyone to notice her wristbands... :)

You may ask, why did she have to dress up as a pirate? Well, I think the teachers were trying to figure out how to focus on the letter X for 2 whole school days. And this is how they did. The children went on a treasure hunt, made a bottle with sand and treasures to find in it, drew maps with X's on them, etc... So, it was definitely a fun day for Rachel!
