Ozzyhell Welcomes You !!!

TODAY WAS A VERY FUN-FILLED DAY AT MY DAUGHTER'S HIGH SCHOOL!!!! I PICKED UP KRIS FROM HER PLACE AND WE DROVE TO MY DAUGHTERS' HIGH SCHOOL (WHICH IS WHERE I HAD ATTENDED), AND SAT IN THE SCHOOL GYM TO WATCH THE GIRLS PERFORM A FEW DIFFERENT SONGS AND DANCES FROM VARIOUS REGIONS OF THE WORLD. THE TITLE OF THIS BLOG IS CALLED THAT WAY AS IT STANDS FOR "MOOREFIELD AGAINST DISCRIMINATION". WHERE WE CELEBRATE ALL THE DIFFERENT CULTURES IN THE WORLD...AND MGHS STANDS FOR MOOREFIELD GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL.

IN THE MORNING BEFORE THE PARENTS ARRIVED  AN ABORIGINAL ELDER NAMED 'UNCLE MAX' PERFORMED A TRADITIONAL CEREMONY TO WARD OFF EVIL SPIRITS FOR A PEACEFUL AND HARMONIOUS DAY. UNFORTUNATELY IT WAS DONE BEFORE THE PARENTS ARRIVED SO I HAVE NO VIDEO FOOTAGE OF THIS SPECIAL OCCASION. 

AFTER THE VARIOUS PERFORMANCES IN THE GYM, WE MADE OUR WAY TO THE MAIN BLOCK WHERE WE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TRY OUT DIFFERENT FOODS OF MANY COUNTRIES. THERE WAS A 'MODERN AUSTRALIA STALL', WHERE YOU COULD BUY BBQ SAUSAGES AND SOME DELICIOUS LAMINGTONS AND VARIOUS OTHER THINGS AND AN 'ABORIGINAL AUSTRALIA STALL'. THERE ALSO WAS  A 'MEDITERRANEAN EUROPE STALL' WHERE YOU COULD BUY SOME VERY NICE GREEK PASTRIES LIKE 'BAKLAVA', CHEESE PIES AND A WHOLE LOT MORE. THERE WAS A 'SLAVIC EUROPE STALL', AN  'ORIENTAL STALL',  'INDIAN STALL' AND SO ON...

MY SON HARRY, AND KRIS'S 2 BOYS WALKED WITH THEIR CLASSES TO THE HIGH SCHOOL AS THEIR PRIMARY SCHOOL WAS ALSO INVITED TO ATTEND. SO IT MADE KRIS'S AND MY DAY EXTRA SPECIAL AS WE GOT TO SPEND IT WITH OUR KIDS!!

WE HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME, WE SHARED A FEW LAUGHS AND IN GENERAL IT WAS A REALLY SUCCESSFUL DAY!! I FELT LIKE I WAS IN A TIME WARP AT TIMES AS I WALKED AROUND THE GROUNDS AS THIS WAS REMINISCENT OF THE DAYS WHEN I USED TO ATTEND THIS HIGH SCHOOL AND HAD THE SAME CELEBRATION WHICH IN THOSE DAYS  USED TO BE REFERRED TO AS "MULTICULTURAL DAY".

THE CELEBRATIONS ENDED AT 1PM, A COUPLE OF HOURS BEFORE THE ACTUAL 'HOME TIME BELL' WAS SOUNDED AND SINCE I HAD ALL MY KIDS WITH ME I DECIDED I'D JUST TAKE THEM HOME RATHER THAN COMING BACK AGAIN TO PICK THEM UP AT 3PM. KRIS'S BOYS DECIDED THEY'D WALK BACK WITH THEIR SCHOOL AND SHE HAD TO PICK THEM UP AT 3PM. SO WE DROVE HER HOME AND WE WENT HOME, TIRED BUT HAPPY.  SOON AFTER THAT, WE DROVE BACK TO KRIS'S PLACE FOR COFFEE AND HAD A GOOD TIME CHATTING ABOUT THE DAYS EVENTS AND DURING THAT TIME I DROVE HARRY TO HIS TAEKWONDO LESSON AND THEN WENT TO PICK HIM UP AND SPENT MORE TIME AT HER HOUSE. WE FINALLY LEFT AT 7:20PM AND GOT BACK HOME IN TIME TO WATCH THE FRIDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL..... SO ALL UP IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST DAYS I'VE HAD SINCE THE OZZY OSBOURNE CONCERT!!!!!! (LOL, TYPICAL OF ME TO MENTION OZZY IN MY BLOG, SORRY GUYS BUT HOW COULD I NOT MENTION MY MUCH LOVED OZZY? I ASK YOU? LOL)

THANKS KRIS, FOR ACCOMPANYING ME TODAY!! IT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN AS FUN WITHOUT YOU!!! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!
