Eclipse

May 20, 2012 Kanarraville was one of the Sweet spots to see the Eclipse so Cedar had all kinds of things going on. We went to the Aquatic Center to see the Eclipse activities.  It was lots of fun. By the time we got there all of the glasses were gone but I had saved a pair from school so I was good.

 Abe, Jane, Gwen, Holden and I sat out front and watched. It was great thru the glasses and in out pin boxes  but it was really neat wen we saw the it on the wall of the house.  I had read to look through the leaves of trees but guess it meant the shadow of them. I was great.

 Here is the full eclipse on the wall. I also have a movie of the other wall where the rings are bigger from the tree that is across the street.

 This is from inside Sally's house, they had them all over their living room. They were coming through curtains they had just put up.  She has a good one of the full eclipse.

 It will be a day to remember. We had another one I remember when I was teaching at Beryl.

Dresses

It was dress time, Kira wanted one for a dance and Kya wanted one for her Cruise. Kira designed hers with the help of a pattern, we did it.

 

 Kya picked the pattern and we did some different things to  it. The sleeves or shoulder straps come out so covers more that's why they look different.

 

Shells

Tonia and Jon went to Florida for a two week trip. She picked up lots of shells.  The neckless is what she made for Mother's Day.

Easter

Easter was so nice this year no snow. We had the hunt, kids could play  outside.  I had some eggs  for  them to dye and I put them on the table out side.  It worked out great.

I did some remoldeling of the front yard the bushes are gon on the corner. I planted new bushes and more flowers. 

 This is the back yard corner all cleaned up.

Museum for scouts

Sally called one day and said lets go to the Museum because Eli needed to go to a museum. I remembered to take pictures. Was really interesting to see pictures of old Cedar. I learned lots of things.

Sewing

March and April was sewing for the Ballroom Dance group. Kya is in it and they come here for repairs. I said I could make skirts for one dance. I think there were 6 or seven of them. We went to the program last week and they turned out really good.

One of the dancers wanted to do a dance with a cape so Kya said she would make it. With a little help this is what we came up with and it worked out really good. He preformed it in the program.
Another Friend of Kya's needed an outfit for a contest he was in. He wanted the example below and you can see what I turned out . It was a fun challenge.
