A Visit to the Wax Museum

Last week, the 3rd graders at BMP hosted a wax
museum. Honestly, I thought this was a clever
class project. Each child had 2 weeks to gather
information on a famous person past or present.
Larry chose George Washington. He learned
all about Washington's family, where he lived,
what he was famous for and how he died.

Each child had a colored dot, "button",
on their hand. When you push the button, they give you
a 2 to 3 minute summary of this person's bio.
It was really neat.

Here is Ethan listening to Abraham Lincoln.
The day we visited, Ethan's class visited too.
So it was interesting to see him outside of the home
before he realized I was there.

Here is my George Washington before he realized
Larry & I were there.

It is always such a treat for the kids to have
daddy come out and see them.

Where else can you see George Washington

best bud Albert Einstein?

Apple Festival

OK,  I was too excited to wait on this new post.  We went to the Hendersonville Apple Festival this afternoon.  We have lived here 2 years and this was our first time going.  It was fun.  People had their crafts for sale and of course, lots of apples.  Anyways, center stage, a band was performing old rock n roll music.  We stopped to take a break and enjoy ice cream.  While sitting there, a square dancer asked Larry Denzil to be her partner in the square dancing routine.  Talk about a laugh, I hope you guys enjoy the pictures.  Did I forget to mention that the Hurts were in for a visit? Ok, here is Larry Denzil having a great time square dancing. I think he has found his true calling. Here is little Larry relaxing during the bands gig. Here is Larry Denzil and the little old lady who asked him to be her partner.  Poor thing, I do not think she read the back of his shirt.  He had the number  7 and at the top it said Baby Maker.  This was his work soft ball shirt. He is actually enjoying...

Scary Moment

Last night we had a bit of a scare in our house.  I was making dinner for the missionaries.  No my dinner was not scary!  I was making a pre-holiday meal, ham and the whole nine yards.  I had purchased fresh cranberries to make cranberry sauce.  Larry and I do not like cranberries but all of my kids do.  Ruby was anxiously waiting to eat and was dancing around in our small busy kitchen trying to help me.  To scoot her along, I gave her a fresh cranberry to nibble on. Less than 5 minutes later she began crying.  Larry had just gotten home so I thought she just wanted him to pick her up.  He did and she kept crying and holding her mouth.  He thought maybe she was teething, but those pesky 2 year molars came early.  I was stressed making the meal, I did not have time for tears.  But Larry would not stop crying about Ruby.  Just kidding. He was freaking out and her crying was uncontrollable so I checked on her.  Her lower lip had completely swollen up.  This was our first experience with a...
