2/11-New Skittles!

2/12-5K with the family!

Can 23 kids fit INSIDE a piece of paper?

Yes, you read the question right...I asked my class:

"Do you think our entire class can fit INSIDE a piece of paper?"

This was their response:

No-19

Yes-4

In science we are learning about physical and chemical changes! One of our labs was to see if we could physically change a piece of paper so that all of our students could fit inside.

We did it! Here is what it looked like:

It made for a fun lab! Lots of laughs and some fake falling at the end!

Friday Fun! (Ethel's Birthday Pictures!)

Finally made it to Friday! WHOOP WHOOP!

This week actually has gone by pretty fast! Started off great with Ethel's 1st birthday! Here are pictures from her special day!:

Please excuse how horrible I look. But isn't she just the CUTEST!

She LOVED her cone! (We did NOT let her eat the entire thing!)

At one point I had to pull her back so she would breath! :)

And we sang Happy Birthday to her while she at her cone!

She even shared with her big sister Lucy!

The Mr. with sweet Ethel too!

The job search is going for the Mr. He's applied to over 30 places. We are just praying for an interview now.

We have a really fun/full weekend ahead! I'm sure I'll have lot of pictures to share with you all! We are celebrating my sweet MIL's 50th birthday! She is one good lookin' 50 year old!

Her breeder was so great, because we could go visit her as much as we wanted! It made the wait go by faster!

 

2 weeks old! SO precious! Getting to meet her sweet Aunt M!

Here is our sweet girl at 4 weeks old! Getting even cuter! We couldn't wait to get her home with us and Lucy!

Here she is at 6 weeks...I should have known then that she was going to be obsessed with her Daddy!!

Her first day at home! Lucy and Ethel meeting for the first time! O what a great day!

Since April 1st, 2010 our house has been filled with the spunk, love and fun of Ethel! Who knew that such a little thing would bring so much joy in our lives!
