The Big & Bad

Kyleann was in a play this spring after school. The group rehearsed for 2 -1/2 months and then performed. She had tried out for Little Red and got the part. I laughed when I found out that Little Red in this play was sassy & loud. It fit Kyleann's personality perfectly. I guess the Drama teacher thought the same thing. :0) LOL

Kyleann's Reading Award

Kyleann was the proud receiver of a Academic Award this year in Reading. We are very proud, but not surprised. She has accelerated in reading immensely over the past 2 years and absolutely loves it. :0) Over the past year Kyleann has really immersed herself into writing short stories. She signed up on a young author site where she can submit some of her work and have other teens read over, comment and give support on her stories. She also participated in a group called Smack Down where they competed with the other Middle School in Snohomish over a list of books both groups were given over the year to read. The group she was in got together once a week during lunch time and discussed the books on the list, ending in May with the competition. Kyleann's school won this year's competition by one point, close, but they did it! The group was so excited!
We are hoping that Kyleann will be willing to let us post some more of her work soon. Be on the look out for updates. :0)

Interesting Test

I thought this was kind of interesting. I would say I don't think I fall on the Superior side, but it was fun either way. ~ Caroline

We are back from Silverwood!


Hello!

We are back from Silverwood in Idaho. We had a great time! The weather was perfect and the park was not overly busy! Can't ask for a better vacation. I just got done downloading all our pictures to our computer. Now I just need to load them up into our family online album. Be on the look out for the picture update in the next couple of days.
