And the winner was?? My vote is for the one on the far right.

 

[mickeymo]

yep, far right - straight and true...

far left - traveled in circles - made by the three 6th grade brothers

the middle one wobbled, and stopped and started a bit - but, got bonus points for creativity

I want my goodie bag and prize now.

But I'd settle for a look at the cake!!

And since I finally understand how to post pictures. Here's a few from this winter's play - Arsenic and Old Lace: I think you'll recognize the policeman on the right

 

[mickeymo]

Just for you Stacey,

The "goodie bags" were their team t-shirts...

The cake:

Okay now, that just looks scary! Not the man in uniform...the very small metal thing that they're going to fly up into the air in!

we're home (good news, the house didn't burn down while we were gone)
we're beat. and emotionally exhausted from having to leave FL and come back to OHIO (which, in true form, was grey and rainy when we got here)

will update you with highlights (and lowlights) soon.

Get rested up and I'll wait here for your housekeeping story......

Good morning everyone!

Welcome Home Karen!

Monica - the pictures look great. Thanks for sharing all of them.

Good morning all!

Monica, great pics. I bet the kids had a blast at Maggie's party. Bruce can only hope that our girls would want to have an engineering party!

Welcome home OhioMouse family!

Last week of school for us. Girls had dance recital pics yesterday afternoon. Then Bruce & I spent the rest of the afternoon/evening painting our home office. We had to finish up on trim work tonight.

Have a great Monday everyone.

So that explains why you are the way you are!

Hey it has two engines!

Hey Kevin,

Guess what I just ordered!

Hey it has two engines!

I flew in a 5-seater once from Florida to the Bahamas, but I was only 17 and didn't realize the dangers.

The next smallest was from the mainland of Belize to an out island...and again, I wasn't very old then either.

Now that I'm old and would like to live a whole lot longer, if it doesn't seat at least 100 people, I'm not going on it!

 

[justmestace]

Hey Kevin,

Guess what I just ordered!

Something that will make me very jealous, I'm sure.....

 

[WVMD]

Hey Kevin,

Guess what I just ordered!

I'll bite????
