Yesterday, after Kyra's basketball team destroyed their opposition, we went shopping for teacher gifts. While at Hallmark, Kyra saw these small blown-glass figures of various animals. She really wanted them and they were only $2. I let her pick out a few (puppy, fish, frog) as a reward for making 100 on her Social Studies project which counts as a large portion of her grade this quarter. She set up a habitat for them in her bathroom. She used an old hermit crab tank, and cut paper and taped it together to make a dog house and water bowl. We woke this morning to find Elf Kendall and Elf Edward peering into the habitat...
Although we had planned this weeks ago, I didn't get around to sending out e-vites until a few days ago for a gift-exchage party. Thankfully, three friends came and we had fun playing, decorating cookies, and exchanging gifts via a gift-exchange game. Maybe next year I'll get the evites out sooner.
Colleen was the last to leave and she and Kyra were scheming their next major production. She spent the night with us last New Years Eve and they had fun making crazy videos. They were working on their next top video just minutes before her mom arrived.
