Harlem Wizards 2013

The Harlem Wizards came back to Perry for a rematch game against the PL Hoop Troop. The Wizards put on a fun show of wizardry basketfull full of skits & amazing skills. Over 500 were in attendance this year. Despite all the snow and cold weather, it was a very successful event for our PTO.

Some new faces join the PL Hoop Troop this year...don't we look mean?

After school, the kids got to enjoy more surprises & treats!

They even got "heart-attacked". So fun to hear them read all the messages on their door.

Lastly, we had a "romantic" dinner ready for Eric when he got home from work.

Hope your day was as sweet as ours. :)

Digital Learning Day

Minecraft anyone?

Our kids LOVE technology, specifically Minecraft lately. The app blows my mind. Having them explain what they are "building" blows my mind even more!
