| Nathaniel and Grandpa Bruce (finally Grandpa was able to come to a Veteran's Day program at the school! Joshua had been wanting that since we moved up here in 2008...and was sick and unable to go to school the day of the program - but Nathaniel was excited to have a Veteran there!) |

| Grace got her first reall haircut on Tuesday (as in by a professional, not Mommy)...bang trim and ends trimmed...and then she got her hair curled...she was so excited about it. She then got to go spend a couple of hours at Grandma and Grandpa's and play with Geddy one last time before he had to go back to Utah - which she was thrilled about. She gave Geddy the flower (leftover from the flowers from her great-grandpa's funeral services over the weekend) and told me that she was going to give it to Ged, then he'd give it back to her and this was because she loved him and he loved her. She then proceeded to have the whole conversation herself as we got ready to head to Etna that day. |

| She got a treat after her "short cut" (that is what she keeps telling us - that she went and got a short cut...and she didn't get much cut off - don't know where the short part is coming from :)) |

| Yesterday was the school spelling bee for 4th and 5th graders. Last year Joshua, as a fourth grader, took 3rd. This year he achieved 1st place (he told me that it is his greatest achievement yet) and will go on to the county competition at C.O.S. at the end of January. He's got a lot of words to study :) He did a wonderful job...all the kids did. I never want the honor when I was in school and managed to make sure (though I spelled well) to not get into any of the competitions. Takes a lot of guts to get up in front of a lot of people and do this. |
