Meet the President and Senator

This last week was busy as you can see from our most recent posts. My third Princess was elected as Student Body President. The school is a large school so that is a big accomplishment. She received lots of great congratulations from students and teachers alike.




The "Blue's Clues" skit was a hit and everyone that was in her "blue" group was actually voted in. That said much for the skit.








I was proud of Princess number three as she went up to her opponent and shook his hand and I was proud of him for pulling her into a hug. She suggested that he run for class officer and his mother said, "That is what I keep telling him." His mother also commented on the blue teams cute skit. So, there were no hard feelings between opponents which is good.




Princess number four ran for class office which actually, as a senator she will be working with the student body officers so she will work directly with her sister which will be fun for both.




We came up with fun posters for her campaign as well. She used a dance picture that had both Princess 3 and 4 on it and they were holding up "v" victory fingers. We found a "V" Vote using the fingers as the "V" and used that for the sign. Then we said, "Vote" for "our family" again! Princess number 3 then wrote, "I President ___ approve of this message!" and then we posted their picture together. It was funny and they got lots of comments on the posters.




They both handed out different types of suckers. We had a fun idea to use gems but the school has a rule of no stickers of any kind so we had to forgo that idea. The girls told me that candy is the "choice" of all the students so we went with the cheapest, easiest method. Since I get the suckers after holiday's on sale and we used posters from other things and the shirts were on sale, the whole cost for both campaigns was about $10. You really can't beat that.




It will be a busy but fun year next year. Not much different from this year!:-)
