State Capital

Jedrek's 4th Grade Class is learning all about
Arizona this year so they took a field trip to
the State Capital!
Did you know that the statue on top is actually
a weather vain? It move to the wind!
Oh and they bought it from the Sears catalog!
This is a piece of the USS Arizona.

These are a few things recovered from the Arizona after it sunk in Pearl Harbor
Jedrek is learning about the State Seal

The State Seal


The First House of Representatives

We were lucky to meet one of our Representatives for our district.

We were seated in the "Peanut Gallery" taking questions and the first question was " Are we going to get to go down there?" He said only if your invited then he asked our guide if we had time and we did so he took us to the floor which is uncommon if you haven't set up a time with your tour! It was a great surprise! All because of one question!

Snow Day!

When my niece had her baby I had to go see them. It took us a week to get up to visit but we did! She lives in Prescott and they got snow with the big storm in January. So Jed had a Wednesday off so we call the kids in and headed up the hill! It was a great day trip! I held the baby most of the day due to mommy being tired to a late night the night before! I was happy to help!!! Jed's Mom lives in Chino Valley and she came down to see us. It was a great visit!
Alex decided to make a snow fort


So did Jedrek
They had snow ball fights too!

Baby Gabe!

Meeting Gabriel Thomas Olague
For the first time!

Corben holding Baby Gabe!
I think he maybe ready to be a big brother!

Alex holding Gabe!



Jedrek didn't ever ask to hold him but he thought he was very cute!

We love you baby Gabe!

Better Late then Never! Christmas Concert's

I know this was a LONG time ago but life has been crazy!
Jedrek and Alex had a concert the same night at two different schools!
Jedreks started a half hour before Alex's so we dropped Alex off and
prayed we make it to his before he hit the stage.Here is Jedrek Playing the snare drum. He did a good job. Since then
he got bored with it cuz he wasn't learning much from it and he didn't want
to drop PE so he decided to drop band.
Since we got there late we were off to the side but got
to see Alex fairly well.

This is what I call TROUBLE! These 3 boys are great friends!
I love having them over.

Great Job Jedrek!!
