March 6 - March 12

** I DID 2 UPDATES TODAY!**


March 6th. Today was my last time to teach the 7 and 8 year old kids at church, so my POTD is of my class.

March 7th. I have been asked to help teach the 14 and 15 year old girls at church. I learned a bit about that responsibility today. I feel like a fish out of water after teaching the 7 and 8 year olds for almost 5 years. This will be very different.


March 8th. I got my free Snapfish Disney calendar in the mail. (Just had to pay shipping.) I did a different theme for each month. Here is my "Hidden Mickeys" page -- pictures of Hidden Mickeys around Disneyland. (The 3 pics on top/2 pics on bottom aren't my pics -- they are part of the Snapfish layout.)


March 9th. Spring is on the way! (Ornamental pear tree in the backyard.)


March 10th. Today's pic...Chief playing his trumpet in his first 5th grade band performance.

March 11th. Chief's 5th grade class celebrated "Pi Day" today. (As in the math number...as in 3.14.) They don't have school on 3-14, so they celebrated on 3-11. They were invited to bring in a pie to share with the class as they did different pi-related activities. Chief took in a yummy chocolate peanut butter pie.


March 12th. Instead of a picture today, I will be sliding in an article related to the devastating earthquake off the coast of Japan.

February 27 - March 5

February 27th. Move over Wii and computer... the kids want to play Pick-Up-Sticks lately. I love it!


February 28th. Hopefully there won't be too many more days of scraping ice off the windshield...


March 1st. Maxwell is decorating a cake for his Cub Scout Blue and Gold Banquet. He chose a castle cake after looking at old pictures and seeing that his Dad did a castle cake back when he was a Cub Scout. The Cub Scouts each got to pick a cake for their family's dessert after dinner. They had to pick a cake other than the one they brought. Maxwell's castle cake was the first one to go. When it was M's turn to choose, he picked a very cool volcano cake -- complete with dry ice action and everything! :)


March 2nd. Buddy and I played this game in honor of Dr. Seuss' birthday today. Buddy asked, "Is Dr. Seuss in real life? Is he on this earth? So he can't eat his cake today?"


March 3rd. Buddy's been into watching Blues Clues on Netflix lately. He likes to have his own little notebook handy so he can draw the clues. I thought he did pretty well with this clue.


March 4th. Just one of several forts that Buddy built this week. He likes to hide in them and have me find him. I'm not allowed to touch anything or look inside while I'm trying to find him, though. :)


March 5th. Finally put together the Disney puzzle that Santa brought!
