May 25 is Towel Day
One day Nichole brought home a book from school called, "Don't Panic."  Since it had those words written on the cover (this is a reference to "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams, which is what Towel Day is about), Jeremy couldn't resist.  He got a towel and put it around his shoulders.  The kids did the same. 
The next few times Nichole brought a book home from school, the kids ran to get towels to hold while reading.

  1. Oooo, we'll be celebrating some of those. We already have plans for May 4. And it would be a real pity if we don't do anything for Armed Forces Day considering hubby's in the Army.
