pirate booty!

madelyn could hardly wait to tell us that "if you try to steal my treasure, i'll make you walk the plank!"- like she was yelling it as she got off the bus.  she yelled, "arrrg" too.

she quickly opened her backpack to show us her pirate hat (with a teddy bear instead of a skull), a picture of herself as a pirate, her treasure bag (filled with chocolate gold coins, a necklace, stamp ring, compass and silly nose glasses), her ocean in a bottle (food coloring, oil, water, glitter, a plastic fish and a plastic gold coin) and a bottle of cheese whale crackers she won for correctly guessing how many were inside - 150.

her class also had a pizza party in the afternoon for winning the box tops for education drive over the past two months.

maddux was the best model for the glasses, but they all tried them on.  love.
