March Summary - Part 1

March was a much better month for taking pictures. In no particular order (actually, alphabetically by file name) - here is March.
 
Centennial Days
After learning about the "old" times, the 5th grade classes had the opportunity to reenact those times.  They earned money all week that they could spend on food and games.  If they dressed up, they didn't have to pay admission to the event.  Each kid had to make something at home that they could use to barter and trade.  MaKenna make lip gloss.

 

More Track for Jake.  Can you spot him in the 1st picture?



 

Kids
Not these kids... 

 These kids...

 Gloria had twins at the end of March - 1st day of Spring Break!

Feb Summary

WOW - I didn't realize it has been 2 1/2 months since I posted.  I just haven't had time.  Guess I can't say "nothing is happening".  I'll start by saying "What isn't happening!"
 
I'll do a few posts to catch everyone up.  February was a quick month - maybe because it's shorter!  Looking back at my pictures, it doesn't seem like too much happened. 
 
It was Valentine's Day of course.  The kids had a long President's Day weekend with no school Friday or Monday.  That made their Valentine's parties move to Thursday.  I can't remember what Kyler and MaKenna took - must have been something clever, because I don't recall any tantrums.  O Yes, I got a good deal (like $0.23) for full candy bars so they took them.

• Milky Ways - You're outta this world
• Twix - Be Twix you and I...
• Snickers - you make me laugh

We had a special Valentine's dinner.  Out of all the pictures I took - yes, this is the best one.

 
Jake was still wrestling in February and MaKenna still thought she was cool when she got to hang our with him and his buddies at the tournaments.

MaKenna did a school project  on Literacy and the importance of reading.  At the end she gave everyone a bag of popcorn with a note that said "Pop open a good book".

 

Almost forgot... Steve and I celebrated our 16th anniversary.
