Rn, I'm putting up the pictures of my Pumpkin Person that Em and I made yesterday. It's a fun craft to do with your kids! We bought craft pumpkins from Michaels, a dowel, craft eyes, and gorilla glue. The dowel goes through the three pumpkins. It's easy to poke holes and thread the dowel through. There are stick arms, but they're hard to see. I got the idea from Martha Stewart's latest magazine. (Grooch, ignore the MS reference) The only problem is I now have glue on my hands which isn't going away!
Another picture..
We can put it up every year, because they're not real pumpkins!

RN, those are so cute. Great pumpkins too. I would have never guessed they weren't real.

twiggy, before you ever do any crafts, you should buy some Goo-Gone. it always gets the glue off.

RN Caleb's homeroom teacher just called me and asked me if he brought his progress report home yesterday. I told her he may have but he hadn't shown it to us. She started laughing and said she could understand why since there were a couple F's, a D, a C-, and an A. Before I could say anything she told me that somehow she'd messed up and those were NOT his grades, they were someone elses. I certainly understand why he didn't show us the progress report yesterday, lol. He was probably trying to figure out how the heck he ended up with those grades!

RN yep he was. When I picked him up from practice a while ago he hopped in the car and said, Mom, I have to tell you something. I got my progress report yesterday and I hid it from you. I said, Caleb, I have to tell you something. Your teacher called..those weren't your grades. He was so relieved, poor little guy! I did ask him how he expected to get away with not showing us his progress report since those have to be signed by us and turned back in or there's a call from the teacher and he said he didn't think about it til this morning then he knew he had to tell us.

RN Twiggy what a great project that you can do with kids. It looks like it is easy enough that they would not get bored with having to do it and stop in the middle. I have a perfect hat that I can put on mine as well. You got me thinking of a neat idea to do with LD. Thank you for sharing the pictures and idea. Rn Wow! War that must of really caused Caleb heart to skip a beat wondering about those grades. The guilt of not knowing how to tell you so that you would not feel bad must have took a toll on him. Glad he opened up and that things worked out that they were not his grades after all.

Right now, awwwww, poor Caleb. He must have been sweating bullets. Poor, poor kid. He deserves some compensation. Like an extra hug or something, maybe some soothing ice cream. Right now, Twiggyish, that is a great craft project, and it turned out very well. Very, very cute.

RN Twiggsy that's awesome! What a fun mom and daughter activity! RN War what an amazing story. I'd be p'od at the teacher for putting Caleb through that emotional upset with her stupid mixup!

RN Twiggy, that is a really cute project! Hehe, thanks, I have a Halloween project for the kids now! RN, mistakes happen so I'm not too upset. Besides if Caleb got someone else's grades...who got his? I'd much rather be the parent who finds out their kids grades are the better ones, lol! I will say if I had seen that progress report yesterday, I would have been upset. Not mad, just upset. This year, Caleb has worked hard, hes done and turned in all of his homework, he's being challenged in classes and has been rising to those challenges. He's been doing a couple hours of homework each night, so yep, I'd have been upset only because I know how hard he's been working and grades like that would be a huge red flag that something wasn't right.
