nobody does it better: explorer's 2015 fundraiser

it's that time of the year again!
things have been busy busy as we parents, teachers,
and our kids prepare for explorer's biggest fundraiser of the year,
art from the heart.

every classroom is busy with their art project that will be
auctioned off and board members and volunteers are busy
getting businesses around san diego to donate hotels stays,
meals at various restaurants, spas, bookstores, camps of all
types {surf, music, art, language, robotics, etc.}

all this work for a great cause - our kids!

i love this year's james bond theme. so very cool!
one of the moms on our board came up with the idea,
and it's been extremely well received by all.
{finn even declared this will be a future b-day theme}.

the cute invite.






















i attended a meeting last week for 5th grade parents to meet
the directors of the two middle schools on HTH's campus
{the campus consists of 2 elementary, 2 middle and 2 high schools}
more to come on that. 

before and after the meeting, there was buzz about this event.
some ladies were discussing what 'bond girl' they were going
as and what their men were wearing. one might have overheard us
and think we were talking about the oscars from how we went on. 

i hadn't even given a thought to what i was going to wear yet,
but now I'm thinking my gold new year's sequin dress makes sense for
this event. {there are only so many occasions a girl can wear gold sequins}

anyway, both c and i are really looking forward to it!

~ the only bummer is this same weekend is my aunt frankie's 90th
b-day celebration in florida.  I SO wanted to be there!  her children are
hosting it and flying in from all over the country {grandchildren too}.

i was having difficult finding affordable flights and then when i
learned the date of this event was the same night as the fundraiser,
it seems I'm not destined to be there. i will eventually get back to visit
and will be sure to celebrate my auntie's milestone birthday.
she's a truly amazing lady.
