Green Eggs and Ham dinner

Grandma Dixie has been staying with us for the past few days helping with the babies. Last night, Sunday night, Grandpa Dave, Booie and Will, and Kyle drove up to stay for a couple nights. Luke and Halle were so excited for them to come. 

A few days earlier we had gotten a box set if Dr Seuss books and the kids LOVE the book Green Eggs and Ham. It was Dr Seuss week at school so both kids had been talking about Dr Seuss all week. Luke loves the book so much that right after the books got delivered to us he took the book out and read it all on his own all the way through without me even asking him to or encouraging him along. He's grown into such a good reader! Then Luke and Halle took the books and started making up all sorts of fun games with them. 

Because of the book, all weekend the kids wanted to have green eggs and ham to eat. Grandma Dixie had already brought up a big ham to have for Sunday dinner for when all the others got here, so we told the kids we could make green eggs to have with it and have a green eggs and ham. 

The kids were so exited for our green eggs and ham dinner. Halle got the table all set up with flowers at each persons spot. Luke decided he would read the book Green Eggs and Ham out loud while everyone ate. So everyone got here and we had our green eggs and ham dinner. Everyone was very impressed with Halle's lovely table decorating and Luke's brilliant story reading, and of course, everyone loved the green eggs and ham.
