First semester projects

Some of our fall school projects

Dorothy - the pumpkin





The 3rd grade highlight - the pumpkin globe. We just tossed it the other day since we were worried it was starting to rot. Olivia was so proud of her project.






Will was one of the loudest singers at his Christmas sing at school. He rocked it.




Olivia auditioned for and got a speaking part in the 3/4th grade musical, The Camel Lot. She was the "Rich Woman." She had to act prissy and snotty as a rich lady visiting Bethlehem with her husband. She didn't like the costume. She said it was "ridiculous." But she loved being famous.

Christmas in the desert

Notice the "snow man" on the ground between Will and Meg. Cute as a button.



Ty was a good sport hanging with Will. Ride 'em dinosaurs!



The moms didn't like the shade too much.


There is no doubt about it the highlight was the visit to the cousins' new yogurt shop. They wanted to work and work and work! REALLY!! They cleaned windows and doors over and over. They fought over the broom and dustpan. It was so fun. I am thinking that maybe they could go to college at NAU (Go Lumberjacks!) and work at the shop. Still think they have one of the best topping bars I have EVER seen.


Meg was so excited to get a horse for her American Girl doll. She named it Jewel.


I love the look on Olivia's face here. She was scoping out her stocking and I think she was opening a Claire's gift card.



Love my fam and miss them sooooo much. I had so much fun on Christmas day. I can't wait until next time. San Diego, maybe? I wish we could all get together at least twice a year.
