Callan's Science Fair

Last Wednesday and Thursday Callan's school did their first science fair since 2002. He was completely fascinated when we stopped by Mt. St. Helens in Washington at Christmas time. So, he and Aaron made a volcano out of a set that Granny Linda and Grandpa Tom gave him and explained how it works. He had a BLAST making it go off!! He did receive a ribbon, but between last week and now, he has lost it somewhere in his room. So, when we do find it, I will take a picture of him with it and post it. He's already looking forward to doing another project next year!! Good Job Calman!!

Aaron's Costa Rica Trip cont.

Here are the rest of the photos from his trip.

Aaron's Costa Rica Trip

Aaron and Josh had a Costa Rican party last night and they made the food that they ate there and also did a slide show. Well, since Aaron got home, he's been working on the slide show and finally got it done on Sunday night. So, he was nice enough to choose 10 photos that share the BASICS of the trip. There are a couple of pictures of the entire group that was there. There is a picture of one of the first dinners they had. In one picture, he's in his full "Fern Finding Attire"!! There is a picture of him walking with some people in one of the groups he was in. There is a picture of a red sign that is warning about CROCODILES, which he never saw!! There is a picture of a Sloth. Anyway, these kind of give you an idea of where he was and what they were studying. Enjoy!

Aaron's Costa Rica Trip

Well, since Aaron won't sit down and decide which pictures he wants on here, I"m just going to write and let everyone know that he survived! He had a really good time meeting new people and learning TONS about his favorite plant, THE FERN!! He came back craving a beans and rice dish that we have yet to experience! It's kind of funny, he came back with THOUSANDS of photos, and no, I"m not joking about it being a THOUSAND! Anyway, I think I have seen more fern pictures than anybody who DOESN'T study ferns! But, he took some beautiful pictures of a lot of flowers and I think I might have an interest in flowers. Anyway, we are all back under one roof again and for those of you who will get this, my heart rate is back to normal!! I do know one thing, I missed him a lot and don't EVER want to be a single mom.
