Science Fair

Today was the Yucaipa-Calimesa District Science Fair. Sarah had lots of fun doing her project!Sarah decided to test yarn strength. She came up with the idea one day when she was knitting. She asked me which yarn is the strongest - I didn't know and told her that would be a great science project.

Goofin' around after the 2nd grade interviews!

Sarah's New Haircut

On the last day that my mom was here, she took Sarah to the mall. My mom got her hair cut and told another stylist to wash and dry Sarah's hair so she wouldn't have to do it in the morning. After a few minutes, the stylist comes over and says that Sarah wants her hair cut! My mom says okay - just a little off the bottom. Next thing she knew Sarah was telling the stylist to cut bangs!!!!!!! Sarah knew exactly what she wanted!!! :) I think she looks great! Everyone in her class was shocked to see her the next morning!


My mom was at our house for Valentine's day. My dad called and asked us to buy her roses to surprise her - she was surprised!!!

Like, Totally Awesome!

Last weekend, we attended Shannon & Levi's totally awesome 80s themed wedding in Phoenix, AZ. Most of the people who came dressed up (including us!). It was so fun to see how everyone dressed and hear all that great 80s music!


Our outfits:Like Ben's Mohawk?

Ben had a great time running up and down the aisle (after the wedding ceremony!)


Sarah and Mariah - Don't they look awesome?

Grandma and Ben

We forgot his sippy cup - he didn't mind - we poured little bits of water in this wine glass....he loved drinking out of it!

Sarah and Mariah tore up the dance floor Saturday night! They were the last to leave!

Ben literally passed out on my shoulder on the dance floor! He was so tired. I headed back to the room (and what was on TV...The Wedding Singer!!! ha, ha!). My mom and Sarah stayed until the very end! Sarah never leaves a party early!

Still dancing!
