Another warm, spring like day! Even though the weather forecast called for rain, we had ample sun. The kids gathered at the neighbors to play kickball. Even Erica joined in.
She can't wait for soccer to start up, which should be a couple of weeks.
I couldn't hardly believe it when I pulled up the local weather on my iPhone this morning - 51degF! I ran in shorts this morning - first time this year.
The afternoon warmed up to 70 degrees! I arrived home to find all the windows open - Erica opened them up to let in the nice spring air.
The kids were outside playing kick ball, riding bikes and scooters.
And Hannah, our huntress was stalking....
.... a leaf or blade of grass.....
She just likes to look fierce.
Several great pictures from today, so I'm not limiting myself to just one.
Math and Science Night at Brian's school. So many great hands on exhibits, ranging from chemistry experiments, food science, wild animals, math games, police forensics, minerals and bugs!
Brian's previous 2nd grade teacher loves bugs and offers real insect treats to eat. I have a low res picture of Brian in 2nd grade eating a grasshopper. Tonight, he ate several larvae, then sprinkled some on these nachos:
Brian also "dissected" an owl pellet, which revealed a rodent skull and several vertebrae bones.
Back home, we managed to teach Scott how to send a text message from his cell phone. In the past, he had been unable to send or receive texts, but something changed with his service (the service is provided through work). Erica, resident expert, walked her Dad through the steps.
And a new texter is born! And since Scott doesn't know how to access his voice mail, this is the best vehicle to communicate with him.
Here's Week 9's summary.
Warmer temperatures are knocking at our door - Spring is just around the corner!
Check out all the other Project Life Participants at Jessica Turner's Blog. Have a great week!
The tulips are on sale this week. A great excuse to buy some.
Truthfully, I would have purchased them even if they weren't on sale.
My friend, Jean, flew into town this evening to spend the week visiting our site. Jean and I worked together six years ago installing a statistical process control system across our division. Back in 2004, we traveled together to Germany for a memorable week. Whenever Jean comes into town, we get together for dinner - usually out at an Indian Restaurant. But since she arrived for the weekend, I decided to have Jean over to our house for dinner. Of course, plenty of good food and discussions ensued.
George had the coolest birthday party today - at a local climbing wall. All the boys took turns at the 3 story wall. George made it to the top on his first try. Brian tired about half way up on rope number 2, but then was successful on rope 10.
