Pioneer Day

The kids have been studying about "Long, Long Ago" in school. To close the unit they had a Pioneer Day. The teachers set up a General Store and the kids got to go shopping. Each teacher and class provided goods for sale. Mrs Duartes class made these lovely quilt squares, the cost was 4 cents.

Paper dolls were sold, boy and girl versions.

yarn dolls

Funny story about the yard dolls. Michael didn't want to spend $.07 on a paper doll so he bought a yarn doll for $.06 (all fake money). Then he talked his friend into trading him. He came home and was so proud of his trading skills.

Sweet Conversations

Every time my girls are nice to each other I try to take a picture. Little Annie Poo and sweet Jaileigh can be very mean to each other. I love the days when they get along. They were sitting outside on the wall having a conversation. I was inside so I couldn't hear what was being said but it was really cute. There were a lot of hand motions.

Then they noticed I was taking pictures.

Science Assembly

The school held a science assembly. Michael got picked out of the crowd to participate. I just happened to be at school helping so I was able to watch. It was hilarious. He was Benjamin Franklin.
They each got to do a dance to a song. Michael did the worm all across the stage.

Storm Vs Quakes Girls Game

A friend was selling 3 tickets to a Storm game and they included food. I bought them from her and decided to take the girls. We had so much fun together. I was surprised at how much they paid attention to the game too.
