Ants!

Finding ants in my pantry on a Sunday morning was not ideal. Not at all. Especially not red ants that bit me as I tried to clean them up! I guess this forced me to clean out the pantry and use my birthday/Christmas present from my mom (thanks, Mom!) which were all the lovely containers.

Wax Museum

The 4th grade at the elementary school put on a "Wax Museum" this week. As part of a biography book report, the kids all collected facts about an American Hero - someone in American history that changed the world in some way. Brooke chose Helen Keller. She worked really hard to memorize all kinds of facts... Below is a picture of Brooke at the "museum" and her exhibit board.
