Fast forward to today...actually February 1. Rory was at home still recovering from getting her teeth pulled the day before, and I had mentioned to her that the next day was Groundhog day, and her face lit up. "You mean I don't have to go to school?", "Oh no, you are going to school!" I quickly replied. Then she asked if we were going to do anything fun like we normally do, and I told her that I hadn't planned on it...well I might as well have told her the truth about Santa Claus.
To beat the depression about no Groundhog celebration, she collected her things, packed up and made a map.
She was off to find the groundhog holes herself!
Well, after that how could I not do something...so this is what I came up with..
Groundhog doughnuts!
Look at those happy faces as they found their Groundhog day surprises!
Of course we had to watch the live streaming coverage of Phil!
The funniest part of the day was when I picked Rory up from school and we talked about her day and she was shocked, shocked I say, that no one else in her class had Groundhog doughnuts! Nope, sorry Rory, only your nutty mother would do something like that!
