1st grade History Fair Project

K was studying Lewis and Clark and for the History Fair at school they had to make something "used" during that time.  Well the teacher sent home a folder full of ideas and how to do's. So this is what K AND Daddy came up with.  Since Momma did the mask project a couple of weeks ago Daddy got this one. And IMPRESSIVE they were.... an Indian drum.  Excuse the "greasy" looking hair..she JUST got out of the shower :-)

Baseball = rain

Well you know it's "Spring" when baseball season starts and so does the crummy, drippy, stormy weather.  So yesterday was cousin Ganten's 9th  birthday and after track practice (we JUST made it to our car before it started POURING rain!) I told K to go and call him and sing Happy Birthday. Well she did only to find out he was at baseball practice. 

Here's what she said:
K: Momma, Uncle Mark says Gant is at baseball practice.
Momma: Yes, I figured so much so.....
K: But Momma look out at the weather (POURING DOWN rain!!)...giggle giggle giggle!!!
Momma: That's why YOU don't play baseball K.
K: That's ok. I don't like baseball anyway.
Duuuuuuh!

New style?

Kylie's idea of an Easter "bonnet"

Holiday Monday

Look what we went and saw today.... *Rio*.  So so cute!  We met up with Anna C. and her mom Janae for lunch at Apple~bees. And then Mathew K. (from K's class) and his mom Karen met us all at the movie.  Highly recommend passing on the 3D...2D was JUST fine.

Then K and I went to B*skin Robbins for an after movie treat. K had Chocolate Fudge and Momma had Jamoca Almond Fudge  D-Lish!

And now for the hour or so we have before K has to be to her 1st track practice.  This will be her 2nd yr. and we're so excited. This is a free program sponsored every year by Three Rivers B@nk and last only the month of May.  The King family and bank have been putting this program on almost forever...Momma was in it a "few" years ago. :-) Practices lasts for 1 month which is just about the right amount of  time.  But so far today has been cloudy, cool and spitting rain :-(  So might be a long month???!!!!

Well I'm trying to get K to write some on the  blog...want her to write a review for the movie.  Stay tuned!

Happy Monday everyone!

Easter gift and...

Mama: K here is an Easter gift for you.
K: (all excited and opens box) DISAPPOINTMENT ah they're ONLY shoes.
Mama: What you don't like them?
K: Yah but where is my REAL Easter present from YOU?
Mama: Ha! It's not my job to get you REAL Easter presents. You better hope the Easter Bunny brings you something tomorrow.

From the mouth of a 1st grader HaHaHa......
We were cleaning up K's room and putting games away tonight...
Mama: If you organize the drawer better they will all fit instead of stuffing them in.
K: But they ARE organised, SEE.
Mama: Look here, see (cards all fall out) this?
Kylie: I know look at the cards all falling out?
Mama:Well if you had a rubber band around them they wouldn't fall out.  Where's the rubber band I gave you?
K: Well apparently it fell off....
Duuuh Mama moment AGAIN!
