So far we've been working on making picture books out of fabric to eventually send to an orphanage. We want to transition them into the middle school club called "Qwest", which is a Christian/Volunteering club. They're really starting to get into it!
Only 6 of the 5th graders could come to the sleepover, but it was a BLAST! I picked them up at 4:00, we ordered food, made some food, played games, played wii, painted nails, told girl secrets, and watched a movie before they went to bed. Some of these kids are here as boarders, so haven't been with their parents for months now, and it was really fun to see their personalities change in a "home" setting. Lots of hugs and cuddling and "thank you SO MUCH Mrs. Farley!" They're sweet, SWEET kids.
Here are some of the highlights. :)
They'd never had s'mores before! SO, we broke out the supplies that Rachel and Yvonne so generously brought up, opened up the microwave, and get them the "best snack they'd ever had!"
The boys didn't want to watch the same movie as the girls, and then they didn't want to watch the same movie as each other! SO, we set them up with their own laptop and headphones, and they had their own movie experiences. :) Isn't Chris cute between them?
