Crafty girl

Morgan has really enjoyed 4-H this year.  Her school starts 4-H in 4th grade and she has really enjoyed participating in the competitions.  The first one was the speech contest and she came in second place.  She then got to compete in the county contest.  Next came the baking contest and she got second place in that event with her famous "cow plops" (no bake chocolate oatmeal cookies).  Then the demonstration contest was a month ago and she got FIRST place!!   She demonstrated how to finger knit and had a poster displaying some examples.  She plans to go to the 4-H Super Saturday event and compete again in the baking and demonstration contests.  Way to go Morgan, we are so proud of you!

Globetrotters

I surprised the kids last week and took them to see The Harlem Globetrotters.  Josh had gone out of town and I was a little nervous about taking them to Thompson Boling by myself but I did it!  I surprised them about an hour before the game and told them I was taking them.  They were sooooo excited!!  I remember going when I was a kid and I absolutely loved it.  I think Morgan and I enjoyed it more than Jackson did....he was all about the basketball and Morgan and I were all about the comedy.  We laughed so hard!  It is so fun to make memories with your children just like you had when you were a child.
