Pinewood Derby


Okay, this will be my last post for the day! I didn't realize how long it has been since I emptied my camera onto the computer... I had a lot of catching up to do!

This was Brandon's first official Cub Scout Pinewood Derby! He designed the car and did a great job with the silver flames on the sides, though you can't see them in the pictures.

Leonardo Da Perkins



Brandon did an oral report on Leonardo Da Vinci. He worked hard and, though he used notes, had it almost completely memorized. Way to go Brandon!!!

Final Davis County Spelling Bee!!!


Nathan did so great! He is an amazing speller and did so well for being one of the youngest ones there. As usual, his unique personality kept us quite entertained. There were only 60 contestants, but half of them were from Junior High schools. The boy next to Nathan towered over him! We had so much family support, Thanks Everyone!!!

Taylor Elementary Birthday Celebration

The kids school (mine too... many years ago) had a big bash to celebrate 50 years. The kids classes each did a musical number that coincided with one of the last five decades.

The kindergartners did "Alligators All Around" from the 60's! Sadie is the one in the middle with one pant leg tucked into her boot. :o)
Third Grade did a great dance to that 80's classic "Ghostbusters!"

Fifth Grade did a newer song called "Fireflies." It's hard to see in the picture, because the kids were all wearing black and holding little lights. It was well done and cleverly choreographed. They all finished off with the whole school on stage for a jazzy "Happy Birthday!"

Children's Museum

Nathan brought home a free family pass to Discovery Gateway! So we brought a friend and had a great afternoon...
