Catching Up

Happy Birthday to me.....

Emmye and Steve bought me a new pair of Emu's. They're Australian sheepskin boots. Nice!

We went to a Pow Wow a few weekends ago at NMU.

Lauren't science project, a tornado in a bottle. You mix the ingredients then shake the bottle. It is really cool and was a hit at school.

Jon has a science project due on Friday. His hypothesis is what kinds of common citris fruits can light a small lightbulb. We found out none. If i remember correctly you would need about 32 to light a small 12v bulb. I'm not wasting 32 fruit.

Just for kicks, here is our cat Tara. I don't usually allow the cats on the table but she was so darn cute!

Yvonne

Hi Yvonne. Guess what---you're not the only one that reads my blog! I'll tell you all about it when we do lunch. I'll try to post more pics but honestly, i haven't been taking many lately. We've been remodeling our basement and whew, it's been alot of work. Good learning experience though. Next, we are going to gut the upstairs bathroom. Later...

NMU Family Day

NMU's DeVos Art Museum had a "green" family day a few weeks ago. The kids thought it was pretty cool. If you brought recyclables, some art students added to a statue made out of them. Jon was really impressed with the solar laptop bags.
