Thanks...

Boy, am I grateful today to not be a single mom! Troy has a 8th grade Science project due Wednesday...and I wouldn't have had a clue how to make it! Thank you Steve!


The assignment is to keep an ice cube frozen for 6 hours with no help from electricity, dry ice or any bought cooler.

Luckily, Steve has some prior experience in this area....Tyler is in 10th grade and they have apparently not changed the curriculum's since then! We are seriously considering keeping this project for Trent...do you think the teacher would recognize it in 7 years???



Conducting the first time trial!




I know some of you are wondering why we are so diligently working on it before Tuesday night....which would ordinarily be the protocol. Steve is flying to Vegas on Monday before the the kids get home from school. His assignment for this weekend was to not leave me with a science project looming...wasn't that sooo nice of him!





AND BTW...we are getting blasted with a snow storm again....I'm hoping this is the last time this winter. We have received 4-5 inches just since this morning! Gotta love MI winters....three weeks ago 60°...now back to 20°.....gives us something to complain about...oh I mean discuss!

What is the deal with Steve's facial hair? I like the new look.

YES!!! The icebox project! I loved this project. Mr. Eggleston was my teacher then, so of course that was ages ago - - - an oldie but a goodie!! :) Hope it worked well...

okay.. we think we figured it out. steve must have started growing the chin-chilla about feb 1st or so.. based on the previous blog pictures.

He's growing it to show his manhood! He's never had a gotee..only a mustache.

Can you grow one Tod?

Wrong Tod... Feb 14th.

I thought about not shaving until it quit snowing.... then I thought - maybe it never will stop snowing.
