Been a pretty good week around here.  Checkers at the library.

 

Using the online card catalog

 

School Conferences/Book Fair last week

 

Personal feelings about the Golden Arches aside, the new Play Place is great when hanging with a friend on a winter afternoon waiting for conferences.  Lots of wrestling and yelling in a sanctioned environment.

 

My beautiful and musically talented friend participated in an event with Arts Partners at Exploration Place.  The goal was to bridge arts and science.  She had kids make Rattlesnakes.  Super cute.

 

The event also featured art from a local high school.

My personal favorite.

 

Drawing a Goldfish Snake and a Snake Dragon.  They had to figure out which order, class and species to which their make-believe creatures belong.

Downtown Snow Scene

If you can’t tell, the Rattlesnake is biting him.

 

Any of my high school people out there?  Remember Dutch Blitz?  Had a gift card for Amazon with a few extra dollars on it.  Saw this and couldn’t resist.  Oldest and I love it.  Youngest and Dan?  Not so much.

 

Aaaannd….The real reason moms don’t love snow.  All the wet clothes.

 

Anything fun or new or snow-related in your life?   I really want to know.
