Happy Birthday to Me!

  It was my 37th  Birthday today.  Mom made me a wonderful roast for dinner with all the trimmings.

  Then she made me a coconut cream cake and Dakota made a lemonade pie for everyone else.

                                        She bought this candle that sings and sings and sings.

         Mom got me a bread machine and Polly got me a skirt and a cheese cake factory gift card.
                                                                  Can't wait to use it!

Sunday Best

 Libby got her hair cut right after we took our family pictures.  So I did not want her picture on the wall with long hair when it is know short. So I had her wear her Easter outfit for a photo shoot.

She is so beautiful

Jericho and hourse had to get in on the action too!

Jericho I love you!

This was my Birthday outfit from Mom and Polly so I thought I better get a picture of it also!

Dakota Girl

Dakota's 7th Grade class was asked to take on a challenge this year.  They were asked to read around the world.  Each page became so many miles and the challenge was set.  Dakota read around the world by Christmas time.  I thought we could be done logging the hours but the teacher said to keep going.  So she ended up going around the world 2 times.  That was over 15000 pages read. ( The funny thing is she did not log all of her pages.)  She was invited to dinner with the principal and her English teacher along with the 13 other kids that accomplished this goal.  Then they had a special awards night wear they honored student of the year and Principal choice.  It was best dressed and they gave Dakota a corsage.

 

She is such a thoughtful girl that she is helping a friend with her corsage( I am pretty sure this is the first time most of these kids wore one) 

They call her name to the front of the stage.

She is asked to tell how many pages that she has read.

Dakota Dickson you are so smart and talented.  I am so proud of your accomplishments.  Keep up the good work!

Hunter's Field Trip

I was so excited when I got Invited to the 5th Grade field trip.(Notice Hunter's Tongue)

We had the opportunity to go to the court house.

We were able to go inside a real court room and listen to a trial about drugs and guns and people not knowing were they live.

KIDS SEND THINGS TO THE COURT HOUSE AND THEY DISPLAY IT!

We had a really good day and I think Hunter learned a lot.
