weekend in Williamsburg

road to the ferry across the James! (video below)
President's Park! Really great, information about each president of the US. Takes a long time so toward the end, we had to kind of skip through... but still great time!

George Washington info

Dolphin of the Week




Miriam was Dolphin of the week a few weeks ago and this is the poster she made to share with her class about herself!
1 I am the oldest in my family
2 I look just like my mom did when she was this age
3 I love to read. Especially Junie B books
4 I love school
5 I love to sing
6 I have been to Singapore and Costa Rica
7 I love fairies
and not numbered because I thought it was self explanatory, is 'I am trying to be like Jesus and I am an child of God!'

"Reading" a book

This is Elaine entertaining Laurie. Before I started taking this, Laurie was laughing and yelling too!

Valentine fatalities :)

What is it with toddlers and pencil top erasers??
The culprit!
The victims!
The girls and I put the Valentine treat bags together this week and today we closed the bags up and put them in a big bag to take to school tomorrow... We were all relaxing and Laurie wasn't with us and when I finally decided to go see what she was doing...I found about 7 pencils like this! Eraser pieces were on the floor and in her mouth! STINKER!! hehehe
Luckily the last year we have collected several pencils from holidays etc so I was able to replace them all without buying any more! :)

Dancing Queen

Laurie has always liked music and conducts it whenever she hears it, but lately she has been also dancing, so here she is on tape! :)

Spa Day







Erin has been wanting to do a spa day with the girls, and we finally did part of it! We had fun, even if we didn't have enough time to do everything! :) We painted nails too and the girls had fun! :)

oooh pretty






Her hair is finally long enough to put pony tail's in it! hehehe
