JB's Science Fair Project

Here is my Jackie Boy with his Science Fair Project. Jack sorted and counted M&Ms to see if there was a color that appeared more than the rest. He counted 48 packages (2,704 M&Ms) and found that green was the color that appeared the most and brown was the least. He did a great job on his display board and on his “interview” at school.

His teacher, Mrs. Clarke, emailed me the following note: "I wanted to let you know how awesome Jack did yesterday at the science fair :) He didn't need any help answering the judges questions and they were soo impressed with the research he did!! I took a picture of him with his project and when I get a copy I will give you
one. Be very proud he did soo good."

HHE Staff Valentine's Day Gift

I gave the HHE staff a Sharpie for their Valentine's Day gift today. I attached a label that said "The PTA thinks you're 'Sharp'" on one side and the other side said "Happy Valentine's Day". They were a big hit!

Jack's 100th Day Shirt

Jack had to have a shirt for the 100th day of school. I used painters tape to make my 100 outline and then sewed buttons to create the number 100. In hind sight, it may have been easier to hot glue on the buttons. It still turned out super cute and he can wait to wear it to school.

Bailey's Science Fair Project

Here is Bailey with this year's Science Fair Project "What Color and Type of M&M Melt the Fastest?". Bailey did a great job with this year's project and got 4th place.

Bailey's Parent Gift

Look what Bailey made a school this year for her parent gift!

So simple, yet so cute and frestive. It is just a glass ornament with Christmas colored tissue paper glued onto the outside. They tied it off with a red and green string.
I just love it!

Where's Rudolph?

Jack had a family assignment to disguise Rudolph. We decided to do angry birds.

It turned out super cute!

Bailey Wins!

Bailey bought 16 tickets and put them all in Scooby Doo's bucket at HHE's Fall Fest and she WON!!

Guess it does pay to put all your egg in one basket!

WLC Stars

This year, I'm in the STARS! I couldn't resist doing my big head people for my new bulletin board. You just take a picture of the kids body and then one of just their head. Cut out printed photos and attach the head to the body. I have them laminated and use for my bulletin board.

Toady is the last day of the "Cooking Gone Wild" WLC summer session. We made a few treats for the teachers to thank them for such a wonderful summer. Hard to believe today is the last day.

Last Day of School!

Yesterday was the last day of the school year. Both, Bailey and Jack did well on there report cards and were excited to start the summer. We enjoyed a fun afternoon at the Reding's pool. Here is Jack posing for a picture. Love the no teeth grin :0)
