Jordan's Artwork

I am going to try this, not sure if it will work or not. Jordan has been doing some awesome art projects in school and we would like to share them. I have scanned these so I hope they come out alright.

these two pieces are one project, our scanner wasn't big enough to do the entire page in one scan so I folded it in half and did two "parts". This was the first project he brought home, mainly just scribbles.



This was the second project he brought home. Again, it is to be one piece but scanner wasn't big enough.



This is the most recent art project to grace our fridge!

Notice how everything is circles. He has also learned how to write most of his name. For those of you that aren't used to looking at little kids writing, in the upper left corner starts the J..... the n looks more like a couple of boxes on top of each other.

It just amazes me everytime he brings something home how much more thought has gone into it. He is learning SO MUCH!! and seems to love learning. I will try to keep putting his projects on here. Hope you enjoy!

Labor Day Weekend.

Labor Day Weekend usually means the end of summer and going back to school. Since the weather was so nice this long weekend we decided to do a couple of outside activities. Saturday we headed to a small zoo that I heard about at work. Jordan loves to see animals so we decided this would be a good thing to do.

At first Jordan wasn't real sure about the dragon, then I showed him it was just cement. He decided then it was fine to hold his ear while daddy took a picture.

When we were done at the zoo we headed back home with a stop in Independence to see the train that "someone" spotted on our way through the first time.

Monday was a day for fishing! We invited Granma & Papa to come up and fish with us in Frederika, an of course they said yes. We didn't catch much of anything but the boys had a great time fishing together, and daddy even got some time to take pictures.

It took several hours but Jordan finally caught his fish. He was the only one to catch a fish by the way, daddy just caught sticks according to Jordan. Papa said it was worth the day just to see this face when the fish came out of the water.

Hope everyone had as great of a Labor Day Weekend as we did!
