A-Post-A-Day

I have realized that I have really been slacking with my posting lately and so to make up for it I plan to try to post every day until Christmas.  My cousin Stephanie posts on her blog every day and I really enjoy reading about her day to day life.  I am realizing that the kids say some great things that I want to remember and even though I can’t commit to doing it all the time, I am going to try hard for the next few weeks to catch up and post on our lives as we prepare to celebrate Christ’s birth.  Hopefully, we will make some memories worth remembering!!

I wanted to start by posting that Kaydra and her friend Makenna are on a winning streak with their invention that they created for the Tournament of Innovation (formerly known as Invention Convention).  They invented a non-working model of a “Grow-a-matic”  Their invention magically grows hair simply by brushing.  First you spray growing spray on your brush and then you brush your head/hair and your hair will grow one inch within 5 minutes.  They thought it would be useful for cancer patients, 2-year-olds who get a hold of scissors, women who are impatient with their own hair growth, balding men, ect…

Their creation and display earned them 1st place at their elementary school and 2nd place in the district wide competition.  They are now eligible to enter the regional tournament that will take place at the mall in Coeur d’Alene in February.   Congratulations and good luck, Kaydra!!
