Delivering the spelling bee participation packets to all of the students who signed up, at all of the different district schools. So far, 70 students are registered to participate, but there are still two schools that I haven't collected registrations from, yet. And, of course, I'm sure there will be latecomers, too.

Cole was bored for a little while today...until he got out the Philosophy for Kids book that his brothers got him for his birthday.

Secret Colours at the Beat Kitchen in Chicago.

We didn't have birthday candles, so we used these tapers that we found, when it came time to sing 'Happy Birthday' to Jim.

Scrap yard fun

Did you see that "Secret Colours" was featured on one of MTV's websites today?

Annie & I helped organize the Girl Scout singalong event for her Service Unit. It was lots of fun leading the songs & seeing the girls have a good time singing them all.

Dylan's new winter jacket arrived today. What I don't understand are these sticky notes. Now, if I were a thief and I were going to steal the package that is sitting outside of our door, I would also take the sticky note. Then the owner of the house would not even know that the package had been delivered.

Annie helped me out at the dineout night that we had at McDonald's, to raise money for Shelby's school PTO.

Since the rest of our week consisted of laundry and getting life back in order, I don't really have any pictures to share (unless you wanted to see the stack of mail we had or the laundry machine - I will spare you!) Instead, I thought I would share some other pictures from our vacation

A new bulletin board that I made earlier this week and put up today. It's supposed to say "Don't be afraid to read" but, I didn't have time to put the words up. If you haven't read a Scaredy Squirrel book yet...you should.

All of the Merra-Lee shops downtown Geneva are closing after 82 years in business. I went down today to check out the sales. I kinda like the bracelet on the left and thought that maybe I would send the photo to Eric, incase he is looking for a gift idea for me.
