A Christmas Past

Remembering holidays past; not ready to experience them without Keith in the midst of our days.

Nature Walk

What a gorgeous Wednesday it has been; we went for a nature walk to pick up items to decorate the Thanksgiving table with.  We ended up with this fantastic photo op.

Soda Fountain Fun!

We visited the local soda fountain on Monday after school.   The atmosphere is so relaxing.  Maggie got a frostie, and Sadie got a root-beer float.

A Thanksgiving Celebration in Third Grade

Maggie's class had a great Thanksgiving celebration today; the students were able to choose to come to school dressed as either an Indian or a Pilgrim.   Maggie chose to be an Indian girl, so I made her dress from her dad's old shirts.   It was a very special, magical day. 

Cotillion Night for Sadie

My darling Sadie Kate is off to cotillion tonight. 

Princess for a Day

Maggie was Princess Diana for the day at school.   The students selected a person from history on which to write a biographical report.   Part of the assignment included dressing up as the person selected.    Maggie selected Princess Diana, and we had fun getting her outfit together.  She did a great job on her presentation.  Good job, Maggie!
