2011 Science Fair

Bailey wins 3rd place for 2nd grade in the HHE Science Fair. She did Longer Lasting Bubbles: Made dish soap & water bubble solution as the control. Tested if you added lemon, sugar, glycerin, or corn syrup to see if any would help make the bubbles last longer.
Here she is with her friend, Jacob. He won second place.
Great job Bailey!

Little Blue Penguins

Bailey had to do an oral report on a penguin. She selected the Little Blue Penguin. She got an A+. Here she is with her teacher, Mrs. Brendle, and her presentation board.

Holiday Gatherings

This year I have been to a few holiday gatherings and they have been so much fun. First, my MOPS group had dinner at Joan's on my birthday. She had a wonderful Italian meal and her house was decorated beautifully for Christmas.
Tiffany had a group of us over to decorate ornaments and wine glasses. I just love crafty fun! After her party those of us that work at WLC went on to our work Christmas party.
I also went to my friend and co-worker house for a fun night. Lori served gingerbread martinis and had a few fun games. I have not laughed so much in such a long time.
Merry Christmas

Bailey's 8th Birthday

We had a great time at Bailey's Butterfly Birthday party. My friend, Val, painted every one's nails with flowers, butterflies or ladybugs.
We had a great turn out. We had all ten girls we invited and eight of the mom's stayed.


Bailey's Bridging Ceremony

Bailey finally had her bridging ceremony going from Daisy Girl Scout to Brownies. They had the ceremony in a local park that had several bridges.
Bailey is now officially a Brownie Scout!
The ceremony was a very nice!
