happy thanksgiving!

transforming trevor

one of eli's class projects this month was to create a 3-dimensional turkey with life-like features. he then had to write a paper/speech about his turkey, describing it in a way that would keep it from being eaten at thanksgiving. he, of course, chose to make it out of legos and it was amazing!!

his hat comes off :)

1st nine weeks awards

this is the 1st time eli has EVER gotten a "B"!! considering he's in the high ability program this year, i think one B+ is just fine. he's determined though that that will be his only B :) he also maintained perfect attendance.

caleb earned the citizenship award for his 1st grade class. his teacher said he was a very serious student who is a great example to his classmates.

he also received 2 "wow" awards which is when the teacher catches you doing something out of the ordinary/extraordinary. he was able to get perfect attendance also! we are very proud of these boys!

this is what happens...

when you say, "make a crazy face!"

and we have...
