Megan's Slide show-now you can see it!

At school, Megan's class has been learning about the rainforest. this is her slide show she created on google documents at school and I thought I'd share it with you! You do have to cut and paste into your bar to be able to see it! Thanks! Sorry for the confusion, because I was signed in on our computer, I didn't realize you couldn't see it! Enjoy my talented third grader(almost 4th grader) girl!

Happy Memorial Day!

Just wanted to say I hope you all have a good day today and enjoy your families! Above is a picture from the Veteran's home/cemetery in downtown Grand Rapids. We as a Girl Scout Troop were able to help place flags on the headstones of fallen veterans. I think it is such an honor that we can do this as a small way to thank those who have fought for our freedom! Thank you veteran's for all you have done!

10 Years!

Wow, I can hardly believe it's been 10 years since I married my best friend. Some days it seems like yesterday, other days it seems like we've been married forever! If you had told me 10 years ago all that we would have gone through, I wouldn't have believed it. We have had many ups and downs but I know that they have made us better people and gave us the 2 wonderful kids we have today! I love you Scott and I'm glad that everything we've been through, it's been with you!

Growing Plants

I never keep plants because I don't ever water them. It's just something I can't ever remember for some reason! Megan apparently has the opposite problem. Yesterday, she came home with a plant she'd been growing at school. She told us you hold it under the water for 10 seconds and you do it 3 times a day! I thought it sounded like a lot for a little plant but she knew what she'd been doing in school. Wrong, don't trust third grader! Her dirt was floating in the cup this morning and she asked if I could water it at lunch! I dumped the water out while trying not to laugh and told her I thought it was good for a few days.

I asked her teacher about it today and I was told they spray the plant 10 times with a water bottle. Not sure how she got it so confused but it made me smile! Another day with my kids, another funny story! Love them!!!

Happy 15th Birthday Katie!

Just quick wanted to say happy birthday to my niece Katie. I hope you have a great day and we'll see you on Sunday! Katie is so great with my kids and always keeps them occupied when we have get togethers so I'm able to visit and not worry about the kids. I really appreciate that Katie, Thanks!!
