Spencer and his friend made an edible cell model for science class this week. They got to pig out on it after I graded it.

  

Here is another close up picture of it.

Jason had his 1st pinewood derby race this week too.  His didn't look all that great mostly because his Dad isn't very handy with the tools.  I'll have to work on that. But he got the award for the sportiest looking car.  He got 2nd place a couple of times, but his car didn't make the finals. He had fun anyway.

Kristina also got a certificate for Outstanding performance on the school IOWA tests. She got the top 10% in the nation in the Reading test.

Busy, Busy, Busy!!!

                  

Jason loves to go sledding. We really enjoyed the cousins from Texas that came up to visit at Chris's house.  The kids had a lot of fun together.
  Kaylee and Alex really enjoyed the alone time together.

  The three amigos!!!

Paige and Hayli and porter in the shade?

Kaylee was a great babysitter for Brianna. They got along great together.

I update this thing  when I get time, which doesn't happen very often.  We have been busy as usual, and don't spend very much time at home most days.  Here are some pics from Christmas break at Grandma's house.  We sure enjoyed the warm weather and being able to play outside.  It was very cold when we got home and all of us wanted to move to Mesquite and stay warm.  It was nice to see everybody. Especially the cousins from Texas.
