One Fish, Two Fish . . .


Today is Dr. Seuss' birthday and my wonderful mother-in-law's birthday too. Two of my favorite people! To celebrate we did some fun Seussy sort of activities for dinner and FHE. Green eggs and ham was the menu for dinner. (Sarah was disappointed I didn't figure out how to color the ham green.) We also had a "One Fish Two Fish" guessing game (estimating how many fish were in the bowls), we played Fox in Socks - a relay game wearing socks on our hands. We did some Dr. Seuss activity pages, played Put the Hat on the Cat with Twilight (which she didn't really think was fun (o: ) and we made some fun Cat in the Hat treats. And we couldn't let Dr. Seuss have all the fun, we also called to sing to grandma. (o:


Darn - the green eggs covered my cool Dr. Seuss T-shirt. I'm a bit of a fanatic. (o:


We thought this funny egg was very appropriate for our Dr. Seuss dinner. It is the roundest egg I've ever seen. Just in case you were interested. Kind of quirky.

What a fun night! I'll have to remember that next year when I'm not feeling so green myself :) My sis Taralynn went around to schools yesterday and acted out Green Eggs and Ham. It sounded pretty fun. Dr. Seuss is definetly one of my childhood memories. I think I need to read more of them to my kids!
