Science Fair

Our last Science Fair is over. I have to say I'm really not sad about it. Science Fair is one of my least favorite things to do during the school year. There is a ton of time spent researching, printing stuff out, experimenting, putting together the board, taking pictures...etc...

Sydney picked a really good project this year. She chose something she was very interested in. She decided to go with "What Bubble Solution Works the Best?" She and Chad did a bunch of research and then made three different bubble solutions and then tested their solution with bubble wands they made from pipe cleaners.

The end result was that Sydney received a bronze medal. We are very proud of her and her Science Fair accomplishment.

While we are THRILLED that this is it for us and Science Fair, we are even happier that Sydney did so well and learned something from it.

Cute Kitty

I don't want to inundate you with pictures of our new addition but I had to include this one. I have never been a cat person (neither has Chad) but we both have to admit that we love this little feline. She is so sweet and has the best personality!

Tippy loves to be with people. If we are on the computer she has to get all up in it and be right there with you.

Case in point? Check it out!

Snow, Snow, Snow

Well, it's official! I'm sick of snow! I'm so ready for Spring! I think it happened with this last big snow and ultra cold temps! Sydney and Noah's love of playing in the cold, white stuff hasn't been dampened at all. They have played and played outside and have loved every minute of it.

Chad took them to the park to sled and they had a blast. I wanted to include a picture of Noah pulling Sydney on the sled and of the GIGANTIC icicle that hung from the front corner of our house. It was amazing and when Noah pulled it off the house, I was even more astounded that it was nearly as tall as Sydney! HOLY COW!

So, while the snow is indeed beautiful, I so ready for green grass and leafy trees and warmer weather. C'mon Spring!!!
