Things to mention

There is a Facebook group here called Oki rocks.  People paint rocks and hide them around the island (mostly on base) and people find them and then post that the rock was found and usually they will re-hide them.  The girls love this and have been keeping their eyes pealed, and have found some fun rocks.  They also want to paint them.  I feel that their enthusiasm is greater than their talent, but that isn't the point, and they have a very good time.  These are some of their creations. 

When you need more flannel for your blankets and Joanne Fabrics has a fabulous sale going on so you spent $100 or so on glorious fabric and it finally arrives in the mail and you are giddy with joy and want to throw it all on the ground and roll in it.  So many really cute patterns in 3 yard increments! I think there was 35 yards or so in there. 

Things that amuse me:  This is a taxi in the lane for the Taco Bell drive through. 

Oh my!  I claim to dislike travel, and yet I keep doing it!  I currently have 3 trips booked in the next 3 1/2 months.  Awaken this weekend, Beijing and Hong Kong in March, then Korea in May.  Apparently I just couldn't live with a brand new passport with no stamps in it. 

Hee hee hee.  Just in case you did not know how to use a toilet, there are instructions.   

For Spanish class, Callie needed to make a genealogy chart with names and photos.  She had to label them in Spanish.  I felt that this was a little unfair with the number of family members she has.  I had to get 61 photos printed at the photo shop for her!  61! And they were a little too big so we had to reeeeealy trim them down, and even then there were a few that just were not going to work, and we printed those out on the computer.  I was pretty impressed with her work though. She is amazing!
