Sadie Hawkins Dance

This past weekend I was in charge of putting together the Sadie Hawkin's Dance at the high school. My drama guild sponsor's it and then we get all the money from tickets. It's not great timing because I'm putting together my musical at the same time (it opens in 3 weeks). In fact, while we decorated, I had a rehearsal going on at the same time!

Anyway, this year we chose the theme: Candyland! It was really fun. Here's how it looked:
We came up with all sorts of ways to make things look like candy. Here are balloons wrapped in clear wrapping paper.
When all the students showed up for the dance it was fun seeing the shirts that they made. At one point this HUGE group of students showed up in M&M shirts. I got up and took a picture of them because it was so cool!
Their shirts say "Taste the Rainbow".
These ones are really cool. You should click on it to make it bigger. They made these and in the corner of the girls shirt they put a "tear here" mark. So clever!
Here's me and my Drama Guild President at the table taking money!
Here are pictures of the kids setting up!
In the front hallway leading up to the dance we made boxes look like boxes of candy, made the Candyland road and then we laid candy out along the way for kids to pick up and eat (don't worry, they were in wrappers).
Anyway, it was really fun! It was a long Saturday, but at least the kids are fun!

Saturday night I was able to babysit Kye for the evening. I love spending time with him, plus 2 year olds are so interesting. Well, Saturday night was no exception! He was in true Kye form! He pulled out "Monster Trucks" to play on the Wii and...well, you'll see how far we got!
