Eating My Words :}

Some may remember me talking about the kids & Science Olympiad, how Mimi was cramming and Matthew said he had it covered. Well... Matthew received a 1st place and 3rd place in 2 out of 3 events respectively! Out of 11 schools in their division. Mimi learned her lesson, I'm sure she will plan a little more ahead next year :) Proud of them both!

Mimi discovered a hidden talent as a result of her bird studies. She can sketch & watercolor shorebirds quite well! Planning on scanning and sharing later. After our trip to the orthodontist (aka)Uncle Steve, we stopped at Hobby Lobby for some watercolor paper and brushes that don't shed ;) Of course I had to pick up something scrappy related. I'll share the layout created with that something soon!

Thanks for stopping!

Congrats on the Science Olympiad! I miss those days--the rush of putting the finishing touches on the project. The excitement of the competition. The joy of placing first, second, or third. Loved it!
