The Week...

Fun surprise visit from JJ and the boys... had to snap a photo for CountryMum's digital picture frame....

The Reader's Digest version.... 

Last week Husband had a CT scan to see where the kidney stones he knew he had been moving were... STUCK is where they were... so Monday he had a Dr appt and on Thursday they did surgery. A "bit" more invasive than the procedures he has had in the past but he did great and will have a follow up next week.... this guy sure does keep me on my toes... it's a good thing he's CUTE! 😍

School Dayz

One of my K/1 teachers had a couple of owl pellets left from her class and offered them to Minnie and Miss B.... I thought they would actually LOVE it but apparently it is "gross" to do science now... :) Husband and I got RIGHT into it...

  

but I guess... yeah... kinda gross :) hahaha

Mouse skull....

We thought it was cool :)

Continuing with our Magical March Madness for the staff we had a SALAD BAR on Monday... each team (K/1, 2/3, Office, etc) was responsible for an item... it was SOOO YUMMY!

On Thursday we had a lady come with a whale presentation... she fit this whole thing in her CRV....sooooo cool.....

The kids entered through here...

and inside it was all to scale... rib cage... stomachs...

spine...

SUCH a fun thing for all the kids to experience (and us too! :)

Semi-Wordless Wednesday

Miss B had a special project (think Science Fair) that I was able to take time off for in the middle of the day to attend. So proud of she and her group for the creativity. Working together (with one other girl) is hard sometimes but they persevered and did a great job! They even won 2nd place for most-innovative!

 

The Weekend Report (GIRL TIME GIRL TIME)

Husband headed out of town (AGAIN) 😜 ice fishing so the gals and I had a girlie weekend... Friday they were JUNK...Miss B had some drama at school we needed to work through.... we ran an errand, grabbed some food and set up shop on the couches... much needed REST.... 

On Saturday we headed out to Biddo for errands and to get a new gel polish color for SKY to do their nails... man the girl saved me a boat load of CA$H :)

They came out SO WELL! They LOVED them and the time they spent with Sky... I loved sitting on the deck with SIL L and getting some SUNSHINE. The weather was gorgeous and I came home "sun-kissed" :)

On our way home I had Minnie swing into the empty church parking lot so she could practice parking, driving in, backing in and used Miss B as an obstacle :) She was such a good sport!

and BONUS Minnie didn't hit her! :) Well done! :)

Miss B and I had nursery on Sunday... played with our fav girl and had full belly laughs.. her personality cracks us up!

Unfortunately Miss B was down for the count by the time I got home from the church business meeting... poor thing... low-grade fever and a home day on Monday (thanks Meems for checking on her!) but she's back to herself thank GOODNESS! 

The Weekend Report

On Friday there was a propane leak at the high school first thing in the morning... they sent all the kids that drive to school home, bused the other kids to the middle school and ultimately sent the high schoolers home.... Minnie opted to come up to me and get some volunteer hours in with Mad-Money.... they had a BLAST  working all day but THIS was the scene by about 7:30 Friday night...

But this is tucked right under her chin :) (I mean obviously minus the bink! hahaha)

And speaking of working hard at SCHOOL....Miss B brought home THREE awards from their end of semester assembly. So proud!

On Saturday we eased into the morning and then Husband and Minnie headed fishing. This was the ONLY picture I got. 

Boo.Hiss.

and apparently according to FB (I.loathe.FB.) it was Women's Day or something...I just used it as an opportunity to feel SOOOOOO BLESSED that I have these two gals of mine and SOOOOO grateful they still ask me to do their hair on a Saturday night.... 

Not her FAV thing to do but I know she'll come around.... drove us all home in the TRUCK from church on Sunday.... I love me a chick in a truck! :)

Wordless Wednesday: EVERYONE loves the BREAK

 

The Weekend Report

Low-Key weekend which was just FINE.BY.ME. On Saturday Husband went out early to get the gals pastries from a bakery he loves that is closing sometime this spring... so sad.... and then we decided to have Minnie take us as a family trip to Rochester and go out to lunch.... no pics... but we had a really good time....Minnie was caught up watching as much Gather25 as she could and we ended the day snuggled in at home.... early night for Minnie and Husband... because they left the house before 5AM to head north to fish... 

The goal was a huge pike like Dawson's friend....

(Following pics all courtesy of Minnie or Sky)

Unfortunately no pike...

But a giant bass!!!

It was SO SO COLD....

but the "biggest" catch of the day was a "mudpuppy" when Minnie was picking up her traps...

obviously she was on bottom and most def. the reason she didn't catch any pike...

but something you don't see everyday on your line... something with hands.....YUCK!

LOVE this smile on my pretty girl! Doing what she loves with people she adores!
