Art Show

SRS has a new art teacher this year, Mrs. Delventhal. Kiera terribly misses the former art teacher, Mrs. Beirne (who is our neighbor's sister) but has enjoyed the new art projects and the new take on the art show.  Each student had a professionally framed original piece of art in the show that was for sale for $25. This cute chameleon came home with us. We're proud of our little artist! 

Happy Valentine's Day

Our Valentine's Day tradition continues...

Each February 14th, the three of us sit down after dinner 

and draw Valentines for each other.

We go these cute mailboxes from Target
years ago and they've delivered lots of love!

 Hard at work! Kiera's really gotten into quotes and
handlettering lately.

 Already have my pjs and my glasses on!

 A whole lot of love!

Birdhouse Project

Kiera's birdhouse is complete...now all we need is for a little birdie family to move in! 

On Cloud Nine

Kiera was "on cloud nine" with this cloud lesson and cloud dessert.

Thanks, Pinterest!

Happy Memorial Day!

...and a thank you to all who have served our country!

Little Leprechaun

My little leprechaun started making St. Patrick's Day art from an idea I saw on Pinterest. I can't post the final product, because if you read this blog, you'll be sure to receive one and I don't want to ruin the surprise :) But here's a hint...

 One of my duties as room mom for Kiera's class was to assemble the class basket for the silent auction....here it is! 

My Flour Child...

...should be practicing her ABC's in the flour, but had more fun pushing it together and "trying to make a building." Either way, we had fun.

Though at first she kept wanting to wash her hands because she was "dirty." She's Dave's girl, no doubt.

Winter Suncatcher

We made a winter sun catcher...
