Valentine's Day



On Valentine's Day, Jessie enjoyed running, swinging, and climbing with other toddlers at Bump City. Not worrying about her getting hurt or making a mess made my day fabulous.
For his 7th grade Communication Arts class, Hunter created this PSA video concerning children in Sierra Leon who were kidnapped and forced to be soldiers. Research for the topic was heartbreaking and really allowed these students to understand the need for humanatarian aid through the world. I am amazed what resources are available for these middle schoolers to learn and complete research. A FAR cry from 4x6 index cards and the card catalogue.
The following is a link for further understanding what projects are being funded by the UN

Brandon and his best friend, Chris Davis, dress up for their winter band concert. Chris attends seminary EVERY day with Brandon and goes to all the LDS youth functions, as well as attending his own church youth functions. What a great group of kids to hang out with for Brandon. Chris plays the french horn and in the video, he is pictured on the front row. The trumpet players are featured in the clip.



Valentine's Day at Carson's 3rd grade class. I created 4 games to keep the children busy for the hour-long party.
