Math and Science Night

Friend daughter and I went to the first annual Math and Science Night at school and what a show! The turnout was terrific, stations fun and cheerfully staffed with parent volunteers. This was a warm up event for the Science Olympics next year. I think many kids will be gung ho to build egg drop containers, can rollers and participate in the Science Quiz Bowl. Friend son's team took second overall in the Quiz Bowl last year.

Basketball season is off to a great start with practices this week. Friend husband is getting into the swing of things coaching the girl's fifth grade team. Here is a link to a short animation I built in my Intro to Flash class this week in honor of the season.

Rose

This cashmere sock dog was made during a trip to visit my grandma and aunt with my sister, mother and our daughters. Quite a girl crew! We had a great time catching up, playing games and eating, of course.

SWAP Monkey

This lady is living in England now as I sent her as part of a Softies SWAP on Swap-bot. I loved working with the poppy seersucker and the rainbow rick rack.
