Day to Day

Here is a quick catch up post on some of our day to day happenings.  Lots of the pictures are crummy ones from my phone, but in a pinch, they will do.

My friend Rose moved to the states a year ago and had NEVER BEEN TO TARGET???!!! So for her birthday we took her and introduced her to the joy that is Target:
 The school had a dress like your favorite book character day.  Clara got very into it and dressed as Fancy Nancy.  She was pretty dang cute.  Tucker opted for a less involoved costume and wore a green blanket and went at Legolas from Lord of the Rings (he is 2/3 of the way through the series now):


 Clara got all dressed up to participate in Just Dance with Lucy:

 For the History fair Anders did some research on David Bushnell and the submarine.  Tucker did some research on Edward R. Murrow and participated in a wax museum where he had to give a speech on Murrow:


 For the invention fair Anders invented the Instatrace, which will assist you in all your tracing needs.  He did an awesome job:

 Clara has started piano lessons.  Her teacher is awesome and she really is doing very well:
 The weather has warmed up and there have been walks and lots and lots of park time:


Lucy had to create a rocket and they launched them at school:




At enrichment there was a class on couponing.  I've never been much of a couponer, but my friend is determined to convert me.  She ambushed me as I was picking up her neighbors for school and she took me to Winco and showed me the ways of a couponer:

And that is a little of what we have been up to on a day to day basis here in lovely Reno.

The kids -- and school -- are amazing! Thanks for the update.

Looks like the kids are doing great things. Clarice is so cute as fancy Nancy. So are you converted (or still trying to convert) to couponing? I've heard of such amazing couponing success that I really want(ed) to get on that bandwagon. But it seems hard, and it takes time.

We need an Instatrace! Nice job Anders! I'm so impressed with all of the school projects.
