Cookies, Projects, Leprechauns, & a Competition

Enjoying cookies and milk. I didn't get any pictures of Cayden because he ate his way too fast!

My most recent project: picture collages for the kid's rooms! It's actually starting to look like we live here! We've also updated all of the door handles around the house as well as the outlets and light switches.

St. Patrick's Day shenanigans! Leprechauns visited the kids bringing necklaces, fuzzy green mustaches, and gold coins! They even used the toilet (forgetting to flush) and left a little bum print on the toilet seat. :) The kids loved it!

Cayden had his DI competition this past weekend. (DI is a creative problem solving competition. The kids work on it all year and then present it for judges.) The kids were so cute and did pretty well. Cayden really enjoyed it and said he wants to do it again next year.

The kids on Cayden's team at the DI awards ceremony. If I'm honest, these kids got second to last place. Not the greatest, BUT... They were the youngest kids competing in their problem (several years younger), the kids and their coaches had never done this before and were still learning the ropes, and they didn't get last place (they beat out one team of much older kids). Yes, they could have done a lot better. But taking everything into consideration I think they did a pretty dang good job.
