Back to School layout

This is my kids on their first day back to school in 2009. I may add some journaling to it, but havent figured out how I want to do that yet. I used Bazzill cardstock, Cosmo Cricket Boyfriend papers, and American Crafts thickers.

Thanks for stopping by!

I finally got some scrapping done! Heres a layout of my kids sledding. I used Basic Grey Blitzen paper, Bazzill cardstock, Martha Stewart snowflake punch, American Crafts thickers, and buttons.

Math Assignment

My twins had a math assignment to take an item and enlarge it by 10 times. They have to show all their math for everything. We ended up making dice for both of them. Originally Cole wanted to make a domino...the teacher told the class that it would be cool if they all made a domino and they could line them up in the hall and try them out, but we dont have any dominos (and they have to take the original to school to show what they started with). Then Cole wanted to make a giant Q-tip...we thought this would be easy to get PVC pipe and batting...but because the measurements have to be exact, the circumference was an odd size and it was more difficult to do...so we ended up doing dice for both.

Here they are with their dice.

Heres a view of the dice with the small ones we enlarged

I am glad to be done with this project...I really should write notes on this and the science project they had to make so I can remember what to do when Tyler gets in 7th grade. I think these turned out pretty good though.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to you from our Family.

Merry Christmas!

We hope you had a very Merry Christmas!!

We enjoyed spending time with both sides of our family on Christmas Eve

When we came home from the parties, there was a gift on the porch from our neighbor. The boys were so excited.

We had a good time Christmas morning and are very blessed for all that we have.

I hope you had a wonderful day!

Brady got his drivers permit

Its hard to believe, but I have a son who now has a drivers permit. Brady passed his test today and he is so excited. The guy at the DMV told him to race me to the drivers seat so he could drive home. Since the drive home would be on a freeway going 75 miles an hour, I opted out of that option, but let him drive around town when we got home. Congrats Brady. I am excited for you, but cant really believe Im old enough to have a kid who can drive!!
