Thankful Thursday

I am Thankful for my Grandma Petlow. She died on Monday of this week. I have such fond memories of my childhood and teen years being around her. She was a wonderful piano player and dancer. She loved music and to sing. She was charitable. She wasn’t as boisterous as Grandpa, but she was stubborn and determined. She had beautiful handwriting and she made sure I did too. She taught me that when someone gives you a compliment, even if you feel ugly that day, you say THANK YOU! Grandpa died in 2014 and while we will miss her, I am glad she doesn’t have to go through the days missing him anymore.

Baby Shower for Tricia

A few friends and I threw a baby shower for our sweet friend Tricia who was having her 4th child, but first girl! We thought it would be fun to have a pink shower to show our excitement. My friend Katie hosted it and the rest of us made the food. It was a really nice time and I was happy that so many people could join in the celebration.

Dani helped make the treats.

Then at the end of the month she got to meet Hattie Kate and hold her. So sweet!

Discover the Senses

We started this study and it just seemed to take us forever to get through it because we did all sorts of things in between. It was a really interesting study and I especially liked the part on eyes.

Smell experiments caused lots of screaming. HA!!

Touch experiments and fingerprinting. 

Sight

Taste
