TRI THIS!

YUMMY! We had so much fun trying this experiment. The triangle is one of the strongest shapes on earth. Because each of its angles is fixed, it won't change shape or size when pressure is applied to the points. You can prove it by going 3-D.
We built a tetrahedra, a 3-D triangle out of gum drops and tooth picks. To test the
structure's strength, we built four tetrahedra and arranged them in a square
formation. Then Dalton and Trenton took turns stacking books to see how many the
structure could hold. Well, when yo have a 2 and 4 year old stacking books, the books
fell first. We counted 10. As soon as they fell, Dalton started eating. It was fun!

Kid's K'Nex

Dalton and Trenton love creating things with the KNex sets. I purchased a new set, Sea Creatures the other day and we had a lot of fun making sea animals. It didn't take long though for their creative juices to start flowing. Before I knew it, we had spy scopes with eyes and airplanes.

Paratroopers

The boys' received these para-troopers the other day from a great friend. They have had so much fun watching them parachute from the top landing.

Let's Go Fishing!

Well, this is the best we can do right now. The boys love playing with the magnetic fish and poles. It is a great way to spend time inside. Trenton had more fun putting the fish and pole down his jammies that actually catching fish.

Happy 35th Birthday, Mommy!

I had a great birthday. Dalton, Dave, and Trenton picked out an ice cream cake from Baskin Robins and we blew out the candles together. Dalton made me a card that said mom. So SWEET! He really takes care of me. It was a wonderful day, even though I am still having trouble swallowing the number 35!!
