Clarinet CO2 car

One day this week when I ran the seminary carpool, Marisa came out twirling and spinning around (exactly like Julie Andrews in the sound of music) with a humongous smile. Why? Because the sun was up and it was warm!! Actually warm! It got up to 73 degrees that day and it was absolute heaven! Tyler and Alayna were able to go to school without a winter coat, gloves, hats , scarves, and snow boots. It was a great day!

Bob got everyone’s bikes up and running and had the first family bike ride of the year. Alayna was excited to be riding again and her goal this summer is to learn to ride the bike without training wheels.

I subbed three days this week and am now down with a miserable head cold. I predict a long week ahead. Spring Break cant come fast enough!

I am pretty sure we have the worst EVER luck with cell phones. This week Tyler accidentally dropped Marisa’s phone and now the screen doesn’t work. Ugh!

Kayla made a CO2 car in tech the past couple of weeks. They actually cut it out using the machines, sand it down, spray paint it, etc. She made her car in the shape of a clarinet! So creative! Then they get to stick a CO2 canister on it and race them. I will attach a pic of her with her car.

Upcoming this week:
Kayla has her band solo on Tuesday night
Parent conferences
Teacher/parent conferences for me with my students (10 hours total over two nights)

Utah- Part 4
