Katie giving the book report
Tuesday, February 3, 2009
Katie is giving her book report about who she is (a Polish Jew in a concentration camp). OK it went over most of the kids heads. Most of them did books like magic tree house and such. Kate was a real trooper and was excited to do this book. (They had to do a historical fiction book and dress up as a character in it.) (We could have done a Magic Tree House and dressed her up as Governor Bradford, that would have been cool, but we went with "The Devil Arithmetic".)

Katie gave a book report on "The Devils Arithmetic". She dressed up as one of the characters. She wouldn't let me shave her head though, so we settled for a tight braid and a scarf.
Ethan's Certificate
I went to the school assembly to hand out the spirit day award, While I was awaiting my turn they were calling student's up to give out some awards that were over due. To my surprise the first student called was Ethan Excell. They had neglected to give him his certificate for being on the student council. (I didn't know he was on the student council) I asked him if he knew that he was on the council. He said he did but they kept forgetting to get him for the meetings.
Katie's Piano Recital
Katie had her piano recital a few weeks ago. She did so well. She is turning into a real lady.
My first Christmas
I'm having a great time. Char thinks were all crazy (she's one to talk!). I like all the excitement even if I don't get whats going on.
Decortating Cookies at Christmas
We go to Grandma Hall's and decorate sugar cookies. She has lots of frosting that we paint on our cookies.
