It’s a Nice Day for a Chilly Wedding!

The day that created even more anticipation than Christmas this year finally arrived. Our oldest son got married today…we have a new daughter/sister-in-law!!! WOW!! It was cold, but some hot chocolate, hand warmers and the loving warmth of everyone’s heart made it a very amazing morning!

Here Comes the Bridesmaid

All dressed in a darling little dress sweater/shawl combo fit perfectly for an outdoor, winter wedding. The long-term forecast makes it seem like she’ll need the sweater (at least).

SNOW DAY!!!

Like manna from heaven, we received a gift today as the skies opened up and dumped a decent enough snow to call off the day’s normal school schedule. We figured out a way or two to take advantage of the unexpected treat.

Bombs Away!

Today, Theo took his turn in front of the classroom to make a researched presentation for his classmates. When the assignment was first given in the Fall, Theo fairly quickly decided he wanted to present about catapults. I had time available, so I headed over to Trailblazer to watch him in action. He did a very good job presenting the material, but the thing that won over the audience was his demonstration at the end. I’d helped him build a small catapult and when the talking was over, he started loading the catapult with miniature marshmallows and shooting them around the room. Everyone thought that was pretty cool!
