The school had crazy
hair day. Xadia got into the
spirit. This is what she looked like
after school. We braided her hair around
a glow stick and then used clips to keep the glow stick standing tall. It was fun to see her hair looking
wacky. She reminded me of a character
from Dr. Seuss.
The slip and slide is going in the trash. Teagan thought it would be fun to jump on the
end part and as a result it popped. He
was really sad so he got the tape and tried to fix it. Needless to say, it was a lost cause. I do give him credit for his efforts.
Friday was the country fair for the 6th
graders. Jacinda has been researching
the Philippines all year. Friday she got
to display items from the Philippines.
She had some money, a backpack, balut, flavored candies, small bananas, a
wallet, and a key chain. She did a great
job. She has worked so hard all year on
her report. I was so glad I got to see
her display her items.
Yesterday we went to Ephraim for Scandinavian days. Roxanne invited our family. It was so fun. We watched a parade where Richard and Kate
were participants. Richard is the Mayor
of Ephraim and Kate was playing the flute in the Jr. High band.
After the parade, we went to the festival. There was storytelling, a car show, and lots of vendors. We stopped at one booth to buy some drinks and there was a prize wheel. Xadia won a bumper sticker that said, “save a car, drive a tractor.” Teagan won a hat. After the festival, we went fishing. The kids had a great time fishing in Manti and everyone caught a fish. Teagan also caught Brinton. Fortunately, Tim was able to remove the hook with minimal damage. On the way home, the kids fell asleep in the car. When we arrived home, the kids had woken and were hungry. We had egg salad sandwiches. Teagan did not want an egg salad sandwich so I offered him my pasta from the afternoon. I gave it to him and he did not want the tomato sauce on it. I rinsed off the tomato sauce and gave him the pasta. Once in front of him, he said it was too wet. He wanted the pasta dried with a towel. I was frustrated and realized he was tired. So I dried the pasta with a towel and he ate it along with two hard boiled eggs. Then it was off to bed. We have so much fun as a family.
