January 2020

Somehow January feels like a long month, even though we always hit the ground running once school starts.  Both girls birthdays being on either side of Christmas does NOT help.  Speaking of birthdays....my sweet and sassy Abigail is EIGHT years old.  She is looking entirely too grown up.

For Christmas my dad gave Hannah and Abigail a kid's digital camera.  They are having so much fun taking pictures of anything and everything.  We had a Grammy day right before school started again and we took a walk around the block with our cameras.  Love this sweet photo my mom captured.

All 4th graders were required to participate in either the Science or History Fair this year.  Hannah loves history so that's what she chose.  She researched Florence Nightingale and learned tons of information.  The students were given three choices of how to present their research:  poster, power point presentation, or performance.  Hannah chose to write a script and recite it for the judges.  She did a great job and had lots of fun.  She was the only one to participate in that category so she won 1st place in her division.

Our sweet neighbor across the street knows that Abigail LOVES all things frog (she has several frogs in her garden).  We came home from school one day recently and this was sitting on our porch.  Abigail doesn't look too excited in the picture, but she jumped for joy and then carried Sir Ribbit Bibbit (as she named him) around the house for 2 days straight.
