It's a date

A few weeks ago, C's nephew asked if he and his dad (Grandpa) would go shooting with him, and a girl he was asking out. Our family was able to join the group. It ended up being Alex, his date, his dad, Grandpa and Grandma, and all of us. We had so much fun! It was Cass and Cutter's first time. Cass was a little aprehensive, and spent quite a bit of the time in the car. But, she finally warmed up, and actually shot. So did Cutter, after extensive training and talking to from his dad. Kenzie is an old pro. She has been going out with C in the fall with the ward for the annual Turkey shoot. It has been such a long time since I had been shooting as well. It brought back great memories of when C and I were first married! I have experienced so many new and different things being married to him! Things I never thought I would ever try or like! Thanks C! I love you!!!

Swimming Lessons

 
I did it! I finally got one of my children in swimming lessons! With the addition of a new Rec Center in our area, I had run out of excuses. Which is good, because they need to learn, so that I can stop panicking, and let them enjoy life as a swimmer, since their mother is NOT!!!
I signed Cutter up with some friends, it worked out great because of his school schedule we were able to get him in. He LOVED it! And he is a natural! He can't wait until his next round of lessons. And then it is also Cass's turn.

Science Fair

 
And we start again! Cassidy has reached the age of Science Fairs. We did the rounds with Kenz, and now we are moving on to Cassidy. She was excited to do her experient. She chose to do hers on Supertasters. We went around the neighborhood coloring peoples tongues with food coloring, and counting tastebuds. Her hypothesis was that she thought that girls were more abt to be supertasters than boys. Her conclusion...yes, girls are more of the supertasters!

Uniplatyurtliger

Posted by Picasa


Cutter and all the kindergartners recently got to come up with an unusual pet for a school project. They were to come up with the idea and then decide how to create it. Back during Christmas time, one of Cutter's cousins wanted to come up with something crazy to as Santa for Christmas to stump him. In our conversation she and Cory came up with the combination of a Unicorn, platypus, turtle and tiger... thus an Uniplatyurtliger was born. Fast forward to April and that is what Cutter wanted his unusual pet to be. With the help of his dad they came up with the body, and then Cutter decorated it. I got to attend the Pet show, and admire his and all the other students unusual pets. As a bonus for them, their pets were put on display in the library for a couple of weeks. Very cute!!!
