Hoo Are You?

Hooray for Tuesday!! It's time for

1. Do you decorate for the 4th of July?
I love to decorate but for some reason I haven't done much for the 4th here in the new home. 
2. Do you buy fireworks for the 4th of July?
Nope, I leave that up to the relatives.  I've heard Uncle Kelly has made his purchases and is ready for his annual show.  Grandma Dee usually has sparklers for the kids.
3. How do you celebrate the 4th of July?
It seems to change every year but we usually go with my family to the parade and watch fireworks in Iowa Falls.
4. Do you have a family member that is serving our country?
Yes, my cousin Randy and Chad's cousin Matt.  Right now they are here in the states, but they have had their share of overseas trips.  So grateful for those that serve!
5. Do you dress in red, white or blue on the 4th?
Yes, but it's more fun dressing the kids for the 4th!

Come on over to Night Owl Crafting and join the party!

Kaden & Kaydi

Kaden had his Social Studies Project Fair today at school. He researched Costa Rica - his poster is in the background. He chose to make Orange Pound Cake - a popular dessert in Costa Rica - to share with guests. Notice the small cup on the table - he was telling people that was his tip jar!

He had his first baseball game of the season last night in Parkersburg - they won 3-2!

Miss Kaydi recieved an award this week at Tiger Tribute. The award was for doing a GREAT job in school. She is the youngest child in the school! It amazes me how she walks around school and does everything like the big kids.
