Valentine's Day 2017

The kids always love exchanging valentines with their classmates! This year they made bookmarks. They decorated them with stickers.

In the afternoon we had veggies and dip to offset the chocolate fondue we were going to have for dinner. I thought the raspberries tasted the best in the chocolate! Jane liked the rice krispy squares and apples the best. Malcolm's favorite was the marshmallows!

100th day celebration

I was happy to help with a caterpillar craft in Malcolm's class for the 100th school day, but not happy to drive home in the snow afterwards! The second graders travelled back and forth to different rooms for all the activities.

fourth grade concert

Jane is playing trumpet this year and we were all excited for her first concert! She practiced that afternoon.

She was way in the back so we couldn't see her, but it was fun to listen!

During the chorus portion, she had a dancing part. It was cute! She helped me paint the t-shirts the girls wore.
