Easter and Principal Jackson

We know it has been forever since we've posted pictures! It seems like Easter was ages ago... We had some neighbors over for the 2nd annual Schwartz/Escoffery Easter Egg Hunt. Unfortunately, it was wet and rainy outside, so the egg hunt moved indoors, down in the basement. Here are the kids, anxiously waiting for Mr. Steve and Mr. Rich to finish hiding the eggs.

Off they go!!

Even the Abster got into the hunt and found an egg.

Jackson was very disappointed that we did not have carrots for the Easter Bunny. So, he left an apology note for the Bunny and some Oreos. Here, he is reading the Easter Bunny's reply.

Imagine that... Jackson getting Legos for Easter.

Catie was thrilled with her Lion King stuffed animals, Simba and Nala.

Here's Abby with her new baby...

We mentioned a few posts ago, that Jackson won "Principal for the Day" in the silent auction. He took his role very seriously and dressed the part.

Here he is in his office, getting ready for the busy day. He had a blast! First, he went to several classrooms and helped Ms. Wilson with teacher evaluations. He made sure that "all of the teachers were doing what they were supposed to do" and took notes on the "good things that they did." He then called a fire drill and helped make sure that everyone knew what to do in the case of a real fire. Next, he walked on the school nature trail to make sure it was safe for the kids. Finally, he also enjoyed a special lunch with Principal Wilson in the teacher's lounge.
