Current Lunch Date View

For whatever reason, Matt has been extremely busy at work lately.  This is how we spent our lunch together last week.  This has become our new normal.  It stinks!  He gets to work at 7am, after dropping Ethan off at Seminary.  He "usually" gets a lunch break, and comes home around 6:30-7pm.   Yuck. Since January, Matt has worked 250 hours of overtime.  Unfortunately he is not compensated for overtime.  No money, no time compensation.  Grrrrr.

Cell Project - Ashton

Ashton had a big project due last week.  He had to make a 3-D cell, either animal or plant. He chose animal.  Believe it or not, it was pretty painless to put together.  The photo taking seemed to be more painful for Ashton haha.  He received a perfect score.  Woot Woot!!

Straight A's All Around

Brinley and Ryan were recognized today for receiving all A's for the past 9 weeks of school.  Ryan was also recognized for having perfect attendance during the same time period.  Way to go kiddos!!

McConnell Springs Photo Shoot

Today in between running errands we decided to go to McConnell Springs in Lexington and visit their Irish Festival.  Ryan needed to go to an International Festival for part of his Citizenship in the World Merit Badge requirements.  The festival was horrible, but we enjoyed taking pictures on some of the fun landscapes this place has to offer.

 

Matt was showing the kids how to click their heels in the air.  Unfortunately I wasn't quick enough to grab a good picture of this.
