First Lego League Regionals

SmugMug Daily Link

My FLL team competed today at regionals. We came in 6th out of 12 on the robot game and got some good scores on the core values, presentation, and robot design interviews. Unfortunately, we were not one of the top 4 teams and are not going on to state competition. Still, we had a great day and I was very proud of the kids.

SmugMug Daily Link

Donnie and I went to Yates Mill this week. We walked the mill pond trail, enjoyed the beautiful morning and fall color, and took a lot of pics.

November Owl-Themed Tablescape


SmugMug Daily Link

Introducing my November tablescape! My dad painted the large ceramic owl circa 1978.  The placemats are from Wal-Mart.  The turkey candle holders, napkin rings, plates, and cloth napkins came from Guardian Angel.  The tiny pilgrims were painted by my Aunt Teresa in the 70's too.  The candles are PartyLite.  Can't wait to cook something good with those pie pumpkins!
