Happy Halloween!

Kari was a "Good Witch" this year. We sprayed her hair black and WOW! did that make her look different! She had a ton of fun "riding around on her broom"!

Kory found this "Deviled Egg" costume online and was set on being that for Halloween this year. Making the "egg" which was done with paper mache was interesting but Ron and I had tons of fun doing it!

Happy St. Patty's Day!

My Little Leprechauns!

GO SU!!

Kari and Kory had an "SU DAY" at school on March 11th to celebrate the start of the Big East Tournament so they had to wear Orange and Blue. We bought the orange t-shirts and they went to town decorating them with blue fabric markers, they came out awesome! And it worked, they won 3(4 games including that crazy OT!) out of the 4 games and we are looking forward to watching them again on the 20th....GO SU!!!

Kyle's Symposium

On March 14th Kyle had a Science Symposium at his high school. His topic was on The Effects of Warfare Testing on the Marshall Islands and he did 6 months of research on this. He did a fantastic job with the slide show presentation that was being judged by 3 judges and his poster that was displayed was awesome! We are extremely proud to say that out of approx. 130 students he won "Highest Honors" in one category and 1st Place in the other category being rewarded.

Kyle's 15th Birthday!

Happy Birthday Kyle! He was very happy to receive cash for his birthay this year as he was saving for an I-Pod Touch...he was able to go purchase one the day after his party!

Happy 15th Birthday Kyle!

WOW! Kyle is 15 already! He is very excited to remind us that this is his last birthday before he can start driving!

The kids and I had a great time building this snowman last Sunday. The weather was perfect, it was in the 40's, sun was shining! He turned out much larger than we expected so we did have to recruit Ron to help us out a bit!

Kory is playing the precorder this year for music class. He enjoys playing it and practices often! On this day he and his friend Thomas that I babysit are practicing at 7:00 AM!! Kory can not wait to play trumpet next year in 4th grade!

Kari was Super Scientist at school last week. She insisted on having something that had a "potion and that would blow up"! We had fun experimenting with this mini volcano at home, then she got to show her class the experiment all on her own! She did a Super Job!
