Tonight at Rockenbaugh Elementary us 'Moms' got to have an evening at school playing games and enjoying ourselves with our boys. This isn't to say the Dad's and girls missed out, there was a 'Daddy-Daughter Dance' a few weeks ago too. It was a fantastic evening with loads to do: three legged and turtle scooter races, dodgeball games, Mummy wrap, giant Jenga, freeze dance, 'Are you smarter than your Mom' Quiz, musical chairs, hula hooping, doodle boards and a fun photo booth. David loved the dodgeball, sons versus mums, whereas Evan loved the freeze dance and giant Jenga. Every time you took part in an activity you got a card punched, and these were entered into prize draw at the end. I was very impressed that twenty or so players from the high school football team, kitted out in their shirts, were volunteers. They were running many of the games and activities and were really getting involved with the kids, who are generally in awe of them, and setting a great example. The evening ended with a magic show and popcorn which had the kids enthralled. We left clutching chocolate covered pretzels which David and Evan wolfed down.
