Keilani's Schoolwork

Here are just a few of Keilani's schoolwork to share. Next post...report cards again.

Keil's Math Mid-Term

We got Keil's Math Benchmark exam back and he did alright. I told him I'm happy for him doing okay but he wanted a 100%. Well, he knows exactly what he needs to do to do better and it's always good to aim higher. Keilani set a goal to be commended two years ago after her first benchmark and by years end, she was commended.

Masina's Coloring

Masina wanted to ensure these were posted so Gramma and Grampa (both sets) would see them. She drew a picture of her family and a picture of her in bed. There are more to come but she wanted to start with these.

Slumber Party

A quick snapshot of the kids in their slumber party downstairs. Keil is waving to us as Masina's legs cross over him. Keilani is sleeping calmly. Enjoy!

Halloween People

From last Friday...Keilani went as Cleopatra, Keil was a vampire and Masina was a horse. We went with a few families in our ward and it was a fun evening. We walked around and did the TorT thang and then came home and took it easy.

We had some of my YM spend the night and we had a fun night playing Balderdash eating chocolate, candy and chips. Well, it was a good night.
Here is the Vampire minus the fangs and although you can't really tell, Masina is a horse but it was quite hot here so she wanted the horse-head off as it was a warm costume.

Wanna See My BooBees?

Yeah, it caught my attention too.

Okay here's the story, I was in the middle of a presentation and up pops my email notification with a "WANNA SEE MY BOOBEES?" It caught me off guard and I thought, "What the heck?" I was so caught off guard I half stared at the subject line amazed!

This was from a good friend from BYUH, not SPAM that somehow made its way into my mailbox. I was stunned. I swear if I could blush I would have. I was mortified! I thought, what is she (my friend) doing?

I hoped the people in my presentation didn't notice; yeah, wishful thinking. Well, luckily a few made jokes about it and then moved passed it.

Well when we got to my desk, my coworkers and I carefully checked the email (the whole time I'm thinking, hoping really, "surely this cannot be something bad from Lisha--it's Lisha!!!") PHEW!!! it was safe! When it was safe, I finally said to my coworker, "this is an LDS friend of mine from BYUH so it couldn't have been bad." Well I was really hoping and glad it was safe.

And yes, that's the picture above; they were just Bees as ghosts saying "Booo!"
