Blanket Project Mrs. Woodburn and Mahall 4th Grade

For the past 4 years Mrs. Woodburn and Mahall (Alex's teachers) have done a service project with their class. They make blankets and pillows for children at the Berea Children's Home. The kids are so excited about it and are looking forward to helping deliver them on December 4th.


Tieing

















Alexandra and Jenna













We were spread all over the Multipurpose room with lots of parent and community volunteer. The cost of the project was sponsored by Kiwanis. Mrs. Woodburn and Mrs. Mahall had some very sweet friends who volunteered their time to come in and help cut and tie!

The finished blankets! They were so pretty and the kids were so excited and proud!

Friday Afternoon Fun

On Friday each of the kids had friends over to play. It rarely happens that they each have someone so I decided to take some pictures.



Alexandra & Grace
We get to have Grace here twice a week because she and Alex take dance together. She is such a sweet girl! I'm glad they have become such good friends!








Christian and Evan

They were in the same class last year and we finally found a time to play. Boys...they are truly cut from a different cloth! They wrestled and karate chopped and tackled for nearly the entire time he was here! (To the point they came in for ice packs...and then went back out for more of the same!) I will never understand it. I am just choosing to accept it!




Lauren and Adrianne

We met Lauren when she was only 4 months old. Adrianne was only about 6 weeks old. They are becoming sweet friends! They both love dressing up! Lauren just started taking dance with Adrianne. We are carpooling so that her mom, Diana, can go home and put her 2 year old brother and 5 month old brother down for naptime. I figured that having Lauren over after dance would give Diana a little extra quiet time before the boys were up! They just moved into a house right down the street from us!
