January 2011

 Lacey was the VIP in her pre-school class.  It was so fun to put together this poster of pictures of her to hang in the classroom for a week.  It brought back a lot of memories.  I can't believe that she is four and a half.  I went that Friday into her classroom, she told about the pictures, we read one of her favorite books, and then brought some of her favorite cupcakes (little debbies) She had so much fun and couldn't wait until it was her turn to be the VIP. 

 This is a new game the girls have been playing seeing how they can get the chairs to stack and stay.  It is fun to watch them and see them work it out over and over again.

 Here Lacey and Magen are listening to books on tape.  Grandpa Charlie has a whole bunch of tapes and got the kids these players so that they could listen to them.  The are having so much fun with them.  They still have to read a real book too though.  The boys are also enjoying it too.

 James and Caden working on the last of James Eagle Project.  He is now done just needs to get the last three merit badges and the board of review.  We are so proud of him he has worked so hard to accomplish this.  He is growing-up much to my dismay.  He was just put in as the Deacons quorum president on Sunday.  We are so excited for him.

 The bags for the whisper phones.  We put gromets in and the rope.  They looked great when we got them all done.

 Here is James at Suncrest Elementary giving his Eagle Project to the school.  The teachers were very excited to receive them.  It was fun for him to give them to teachers that he had had.  He wanted to make 120 and ended up making 360.  Thanks to everyone for their support in this project.  We couldn't have had a better experience for James.  Even if he had to make several adjustments along the way, he handled them well and just kept going. Way to go James!
