Thursday was the closing ceremonies for the {I❤to read}month. It was...LOUD!!!
Look at all that yellow!
They announced the classes with the top minutes.
The class met the reading goal of 13,000 minutes. They were treated with a Pizza party. The pizza came from 2nd Street Pizza. They were kind enough to give me a good deal too!


As much as I hate picking up boots, and hats and gloves. I sure love how cute kids are in them.
