Palm Sunday...weekend

Well! Let's see, yesterday Molly and Paul had a super busy day. They started out at Lowe's which held a free workshop for kids. They made a cute little kaliedascope(yes, i am sure i spelled that wrong!), then they hit up Michaels and she made a little bunny and chicky out of Crayola foam dots or something like that, then they went to Kids book club at Borders where she listened to a story and they made a little Easter basket out of a plastic cup. Then, Paul heard that Morley candy factory was doing a free self guided tour complete with face painting and ballons. Well, the ballons turned out to be balloon creations lol!! The lady made adorable little turtles,and ladybugs that could be worn on wrists,she also made fairy wings,tigers,swords,dragonflys,little adorable gumball machines! I've never seen balloon "animals" like that before they were awesome!! Molly chose a ladybug. That was enough for the day!!!

Today, Palm Sunday, they had the kids parade down the aisle waving thier palms and then sing a little song they learned. I was so proud of Molly that she stood up there and even same some of the song and did the movements!! That was a big step for her!!!

nearing the end of March!!

Let's see!! What is new?? Well, Paul and I updated our personal cell phones and service plan. We got the Samsung Reclaim, it is pretty darn cool, made of 80% recycled materials, has all the intenet,texting,video and camera good stuff, has "hot key" type things for Google, facebook, and email. The new service plan takes effect on Sunday, so we will try downloading ringers and stuff like that! Paul is even willing to try the texting thing, oh, the phone has the slide out keyboard at the bottom, he likes that.
This is MCREST week at church, we donated two cakes and I took both boys, on a different to spend an hour or so making the bag lunches for the next day. We worked along side my mom and a few of her friends. it wasn't much but everyone is thankful for the lunches.
Molly has Science day today at school, they were learning about Physical science, figuring out solids,gases,liquids, magnatism, force of motion type things. They all enjoyed that!
This week has been chilly, I am really hoping for nice, warmer temps to come and stay!!

Friday is here!

I thought it was going to be a long week when I woke up thinking "boy it's great that today is Thursday!" I have no idea why I thought that..we still had activities that need to be done Tuesday and Wednesday...oh well!! We made it through the week!! We had some gorgous weather but tomorrow and sunday do not look so promising...and that is a bummer because Spring Fever has hit and the boys are going camping this weekend. brrrrrr...at least they will be in cabins!

Happy St. patricks Day!

Molly decided to pick out her outfit today...she thought a green striped shirt and polka dot tights would be a good option...ummm you also need underwear....and a skirt my darling!!! lol

so, i was all excited!!

I mentioned to paul how much I liked the cute little Palm Pixie phone. I called Sprint to see what our bill would be if I got that. She basically said that the plan we currently have is no longer available and we would be paying only $10 dollars more!! Wooohooo!! We went to the Sprint store and basically found out they lied on the phone!! It would actually be closer to $60 bucks more a month...so needless to say I said forget it!!! Oh well!!

The start of March

Went wonderfully!! The boys are both going through scheduling choices for the next school year. Nick has proclaimed his career choice is Aerospace Engineer he was thinking of some class choices and teachers guided him in a slightly different direction. He wound up choosing honors Chemistry instead of Physics..they said Physics in senior year and honors chemistry over regular because he got the teacher recommendation and anyone in Honors is really interested in learning!. He is also choosing Accelerated Algebra II. He also wants to take some Mechatronics class that takes up 2 hours a day. He says he's up for it!!! I wish him well!!

As for Joe..he got some great news yesterday. He applied and tested and got teacher recommendations for our school districts Academy for Internation studies. its a 4 year program at a junior high and the classes are more college prep. Joe was so excited to get his acceptance letter!!! I was thrilled for him as well!

it's Friday!

Yay! It seems like it's been a long week! Let's see. There really is not a whole lot new around here. Molly had her 100th day at school they did lots of fun activities that day. We had a large snow storm roll in that day but they still had school. Afternoon Kindergarten got cancelled and the boys were each released one hour earlier then normal. Oh and Mollys swim class was cancelled due to the weather and we will make it up on Saturday morning. Wednesday we were at the church for dinner and Kids Club. Molly was very happy because she was able to bring home the CD for the spring musical. We will see how that goes!!! Other then that not much going on in our house! I will take the quiet!
