Egg Hunts & Eggheads:)

We started out April celebrating our Risen Savior!  The kids also did a couple of egg hunts at both grandparents. Are these giants starting to look too old for egg hunts yet?! 

Scout hopes not!  She's still enjoying the egg hunt fun!

 

This makes me laugh every time...whenever the guys do a wood project, Scout feels the need to also pick up wood as if she's contributing.  

What a smart and helpful dog!

 

And then she goes and lays in the burn pit, and I have second thoughts about her intelligence.  

 

  

April was also the month of the science fair.  AHHH!!  Two "mandatory" entries in the science fair this year...three would have totally pushed me over the edge.  :)  Both Scott & Natalie advanced from their classes to the all school Science Fair. 

Scott did a project about how different materials affect WiFi strength. Being the techy guy that he is, this project was right up his alley.  If you want to know more about it, you'll have to ask him as it was a bit over my head!  He got "The Einstein Award" at the science fair. 

Natalie did a project about color and taste perception.  She colored apple juice 3 different colors and then asked Kate's second grade class and her fifth grade class which flavors they tasted.  She got the "NO WAY!" award at the science fair because despite all of the samples being apple juice, almost all of the students guessed they were tasting grape or cherry/punch when they tasted the purple/red colors.   Natalie also got 2nd place for her grade level.  

 

 Kate had Colonial Day at school and made a sweet colonial girl!:)
