The Big Read!!

So on Thursday was Olivia's 
Big Read @ school
this was so awesome the kids had 10 books to read
and made up teams and they had to answer questions from the books
and they also had to know the authors of the books    

I took some photos of them on stage
Olivia's team was called "The Cheerleaders"

there was "The Diamond Butterflies"

there was "The Dynamites"

and the 1st place was "The Snowflakes" and 2nd place was "The Superstar Ballerina Princess"!!

I was just amazed how these kids new all the answers.  I  read the books to Olivia and I did
not remember alot of the  questions.  Not only was I proud of  Olivia but all the kids;)

Up-Date on Alaska High Winds!!!

Never a duel moment in Alaska
So after the two trees down in the back
Rick started to do clean-up
then it rained and snowed all in three days

so this is what my back yard looks like right now....

there was damage on the dog fence

and the other side not bad it could have been worst

I thank God for keeping HIS hand on my home;)


Rick is great the next day he went out and started the clean-up.  Even when the winds were going and the kids(and me) were a little scared he was so clam and said everything will be fine;)
