Another great weekend

Another weekend races by. This one was all about making good food and cakes, painting, trading cards, the art museum, muscle making, music making, football at Butler, hoops, differential equations and some evening game-playing as we lounged by the fire. If only the weekend lasted all week.



Becca's screen print. She liked it so much she taught the process to her students and they went nuts.


When I figure out what this means, I will let you know. This is Rick writing, not Becca.


Owen is gearing up for his career in film. He spent much of each morning filming a riveting LEGO baseball story. He made it with our video camera, but in a stop-motion way. What took him an hour to film lasted about two minutes in real time. It was great. Circular white pieces attached to string looked just like baseballs flying out of the stadium. There was a serious collision at the plate but the ump missed the call. Really, we got it on tape.

George went deep in his own right. He made this collage for class because they are studying the states, and his pick for the midwest was Iowa, of course. Rememebr, he's named after the quasi-official king of the southeast region, home-based on the Iowa Girls Farm in Mt Union. Not only that, but his father was born in the booming metropolis of Mt Pleasant, his grandmother was once crowned Queen of the Rural Electrical Co-op, and his grandfather, according to a handful of aging residents of the Wayland retirement home, is still considered the sharpest shooter the WACO High basketball team has ever known.


Friday night means pizza night. Homemade Thai Pizza was this Friday's delight.
