Handprint art

My little helper made sure that all our Christmas decorations were "just right".  We decided to do a project together by painting Grace's hands.  Then we all added thumbprint lights on the tree.

Second grader

Our second grader has a mind of her own! Grace didn't like the grey background I picked for her school picture so on picture day she told the photographer to change it to pink!

When Grace was the "Star Student" this fall she made this poster about herself.  This one is a keeper!

Queen Elsa

After trick-or-treating tonight, Grace sorted and counted he candy and made a list of what she got - all 89 pieces.  That was a great exercise in math and writing, but it is going to make it more difficult for Kyle and me to steal some without her knowing!  I hope Queen Elsa doesn't get angry and turn us into ice!

Our neighbors decorated an old truck like Mater from the "Cars" movies.  Fun!
