MacArthur Eagles

When we were in Green Bay for Becky’s baby shower, I took Jordan and Natalie to the park by my elementary school.  Natalie would clearly be a GREAT MacArthur Eagle.  We used to get our pics taken in front of the school…. nearly 25 years later, I think I took my best pic yet!

Mom, where's my backpack?

Mom, since I'm only 9 mo old and there's no one else around, its okay that you are hugging me so tightly. Promise that you won't make such a fuss when I'm 5 though. That would be embarrassing!

Natalie and I also sing the MacArthur Elementary song a lot….

MacArthur
Elementary
We’re especially
Extraordinary
We work so very hard to be the best that we can be.
We work all together
We work as a a team
Our good grades we display
We have lots of fun
We’re NUMBER ONE!
And we keep on improving day by day….

**Thanks Leah for the correction on the 2nd and 3rd to last lines of the song.  I don’t feel bad – she is a more recent grad of MacArthur (1997, instead of 1992, I think)

Jordan’s not a fan.  He thinks its prideful or nauseating or something like that.  I think he’s jealous that he’s not a MacArthur Eagle.

    Erin you’re missing the best part to the song!…

    After “our good grades we display” we sing,

    “We have lots of fun,
    we’re NUMBER ONE!”

    Or did you cut that part out because Jordan is jealous he’s not #1?
