Grandparent Bench

Mila and Kiki and I made a quick stop at Pilgrim Heights on our way back home in October to see the bench that was made and dedicated to Grandma and Grandpa. It sits in a beautiful spot on the hill, at just about the point you get tired walking up. Thought others might enjoy being able to see the photos. Thanks to Dennis, he did a beautiful job and Grandma would love it.

Mi's Celebration

Every trimester they have a celebration. This expedition was all about going to the market and the farm. They sang about apples and did a finger play about pumpkins, which we have on video too long to post. The principal even came in and did a read aloud with the kids and parents to show how to ask questions about the books that we read at home. Mi loves to read and is always in a book. She is also in an advanced reading group that is reading a book and making Sancocho -which is chicken stew. They are reading to their classes on Tuesday and sharing the stew. Last week they got to go to Hy-Vee to do the shopping. She loves it! Here are a couple pics of Mi and her friends.
