Jeep and I had a terrific surprise in store this morning at Hooper Elementary. Two talented former Hooper students, sisters Hailey and Madison, did an incredible job designing and painting a mural that highlights our big white fluff! They also included the Hooper expectations of Respect, Safety, Honesty and Responsibility. I know that Hooper students will enjoy seeing this beautiful work in the entry foyer. Well done, Hailey and Madison!
Jeep enjoyed her time this morning at Hooper Elementary. We passed out new Official Jeep Trading cards and met new Early Childhood friends. It was the perfect way to start our day! Good girl, Jeep!
Jeep was all smiles as she came back to school this morning! Likewise, her friends were delighted to have her return. Jeep got lots of attention and love. Many of the students received new Official Jeep Trading Cards to start their day out right. It has been a fabulous First Day of School!
The big white fluff is back visiting her friends at school! While it takes her a bit longer to walk through the buildings and greet students because of COVID protocols, both the students and Jeep are enjoying their time together. Students diligently use hand sanitizer before petting Jeep. They patiently wait for Jeep to come to them so they can maintain social distance. Many students think Jeep has gotten bigger since they last saw her, but I remind them she is only 105 lbs of fluff (OK, she used to be 98 lbs) but who hasn’t packed on a few COVID pounds? At least Jeep now can happily walk them off as she travels through the schools. It is great to have her back!
Staying away from school is hard! We can’t see our friends. We can’t see our teachers and principals right now. Your teachers and principals are setting up ways for kids to stay connected to learning using technology. That will start up on April 7th.
In the meantime, if you want to see some smiling school faces, be sure to watch this video created by our teacher friend, Mrs. Jen Carter, a few years ago. I hope it makes you smile as much as it does us!
P.S. Jeep sure does miss all of you!!! She is glad she gets to hang out with Dottie Com.

Spring has arrived, but so did a little snow this morning. Jeep took full advantage of the snow and hasn’t come in all day even though it has since melted. Too bad there wasn’t enough snow to build a snowman or a snow dog. I guess for now, Jeep will have to do.
Jeep is making it easier to practice social distancing at our house. Would anyone like to snuggle that fluff? NO WAY! Not even Dottie Com wants to get close to her.
Guess who got a bath last night.
Jeep wants to know how you are spending your time off from school!
Jeep is getting in extra naps and enjoying her mud outside.
Leave her a comment and let her know what you are up to. She misses all of her kid friends, but she is so happy you are at home and keeping up with your learning.
Jeep will be at the PTO’s Family Fun Night tomorrow at 6 p.m at Palombi Middle School. Jeep is spending time today with her good friend, Lisa Doane, at Dirty Dogs Grooming Salon in Lake Como, Wisconsin so she can be extra fluffy for tomorrow’s event. Jeep loves spending time with Lisa and her dog friends. It is surprising that Jeep actually enjoys going to the groomer’s to get a bath once she has had enough time playing in the snow.
If you need some fluff, please come out to support the PTO tomorrow night. Jeep would love to see you and there will be lots of fun things to do! Admission is FREE!
