My story...

Travis and I have been married since 1996. We have 4 beautiful children: Madelyn (1998), Jacob (2001), Bryson (2004), and Allyson (2007). I love being a mom and wouldn't change a thing (most of the time!).

Literacy Night

Thursday was pretty busy. Not only did we go to the zoo, but the kids had a special literacy night at school. The school had a book fair and the kids got to show off some of the things they have been working on.
Here are the kids with the characters walking around. This is Geronimo Stilton. Travis was surprised I actually knew who it was, but my kids really like that series.
Everyone knows Clifford, including Ally, but she didn't want to get too close. ;)
Sweet Franklin was there too.
Jacob did a report on Anacondas. Here is showing off the model he made and his report.
Jacob's picture was chosen to be hung up in the "gallery".
Maddy's class did a reader's theater. She was one of 2 narrators in a Ben Franklin play and was Mary Lincoln, Abe's wife, in the 2nd play.
Both of Maddy's projects were chosen to be hung up in the gallery too. This is her Eskimo bird mask.
Here is Maddy's Matisse art. It's called Egypt's pyramids. She just finished a huge project - making an A - Z book on Ancient Egypt, so she was pretty into the whole Egypt thing.
The kids did so good and had a great time. They were sooooo excited to show us what they have been up to. They are both doing so well!
