Day to Day...

January has been unexpectedly fun this year.  
The kids are busy doing good things, the weather has been nice (although I personally would LOVE a good snow storm!) and everyone has been relatively healthy, other than a slight cold or stomach discomfort.  Here are a few of the highlights:

So much fun!!  NOT!  But when you live on a farm...ok, so not really, but we do have chickens, so it counts...
the coop needs cleaning, 
even in the Winter!  So glad it's not me!!!  :)

Connor was on the Honor Roll...smart kid.

Ashlyn plays indoor soccer...so fun to watch her!

Taylor has had a ton of school projects lately!
It started with a Science Fair project.  
I must be lazy because if it's not "required", I have no desire to do a Science Fair project!  However I have a couple science kids that love to participate.  So we helped Taylor put together a magnet project. 

Karl was awesome to work on the project.  My talents went into the display poster.

Each of the kids in Taylor's class chose a Canadian Province to study.  

Taylor chose British Columbia.
Do you know what the BEST part of British Columbia is?
Psych is filmed there!  
Nope, not Santa Barbara...the coast of British Columbia!  
True Story!
When Taylor was listing off the interesting things about BC, he said the kids were "kind of paying attention", but no one had any questions. But when he talked about Psych being filmed there, the kids all raised their hands and got really excited!  
So cute!  
Notice the pineapple in the top right hand corner...did you know every Psych episode has a pineapple in it?  

Finally, Taylor had a book report due.  He read the Magic Tree House Mystery, Perfect Time for Pandas.
He loves pandas and made this awesome salt dough (by himself!!!) and put it in a display.  He also hand wrote a two page summary of the book!  
Hopefully he'll get a little break from projects!
