Busy at school with the kids

This year Valentine's Day and the Chinese New Year were on the same day. I helped to organize a party in Jacob's class. They painted Chinese couplets, decorated cookies, learned about the legends of the Chinese New Year, ate Panda Express and made chocolate dipped fortune cookies. It was a lot of fun hanging out with the kids.

As a fundraiser this year, the school hosted a silent auction of art. Each class made a piece of art with the help of a professional artist. The turn out was of course low but the event was well done. I bid on both boys art work but was out bid at the last minute on Jacob's.
This is Jacob's class painting. Jacob was in the "yellow" group.


This is the winning art work from Jackson's class. I believe Jackson's piece is on the white matting in the lower left corner.
