DaNell's Braces

Well today was the day, DaNell got her braces...she picked black and yellow for the Superbowl this weekend. She's gonna look weird when the Steelers Lose!

Valentine Tile

Here's a quick pic of the Valentine Tile I made last weekend!

This one's for my Brother

This post is dedicated to my big brother. He is going trough a rough time this last week or so, but I just want him to know that we are here for him and will try to help as much as we can. I also want him to know how much we love him and that things will get better in time and to be patient. No matter how bad things seem now, they always have a way of working themselves out. :-)

No Football =(

Since there is no football this weekend, I am focusing on the Basketball games slated for Sunday. I am a big K.G. fan (even got a pillow case to prove it ;-). So of course it's go Boston, and Taylor is a huge Mavericks fan so once again we are on opposite sides of the court, gearing up for a cheering match, can't wait. Celtics are going to win. Looks like another fun filled family weekend here at the Rasmussen Ranch.

Spelling Bee Update 2

Something interesting happened this week regarding the Spelling Bee, come to find out, the list of words they are using for the district spelling bee is not the same as the list I gave out......2 days ago I received an email containing the pronouncer's guide so I started looking through it...none of the words were the same. So now I get to go hand out new lists on Monday and that means the kids will only have until Friday to study the new list, makes me crabby that they were not more organized....they could have given me this list a month ago, not 2 days ago. But on a higher note, the trophies are done and look really nice =)

I'll let you know the outcome on Friday!

100th Post

What could be better than writing about the Superbowl for my 100th post? Well only half of my prediction came true, GO CARDINALS! Looks like they will have the pleasure of beating the Steelers in the biggest game of the season :-) I can't wait!
Also I can't believe that I have actually had 100 things to blog about, when I started this I didn't think I would really do it. But to my surprise here I am. Here's to another 100 posts!

Science Fair

Here is DaNell's Science Fair Project. She explored the world of salt water using eggs. She didn't win any major awards, (just one for participation and 400 extra credit points) but it has inspired her for next year already. She plans on thinking of something spectacular.......any suggestions would be appreciated. She wants to win next year!

She did have fun, but says her project wasn't the best it could be. This being her first year she definitely learned a lot!

This week's games

I think the football games this week at our house are going to be a little one-sided starting with the Arizona....Philadelphia game all of us will be on the same side for this one.....GO CARDINALS!! Then the Baltimore.....Pittsburgh game will have a some of us divided....I say GO RAVENS!, but there is a couple of them voting for STEELERS :-(

We'll see who ends up triumphant this week!

CARDINALS vs RAVENS in the Superbowl!

Sock Hunting

Help! If anyone knows where I can find long pink or blue camo socks, Please tell me! I've been looking all over Price and have come up empty. I did find some other colors to try out, but have an order for a pink and a blue camo monkey. Guess I know how all those "hunter's" feel, seeing everything but what they are hunting :-)
