The Elkinton Four

Grandparent's Day was a totally hit!  Charlie had so much fun sharing his five paragraph essay on what he is thankful for, cinquain poems he wrote for each grandparent, and making all the fun art projects!  The best was his singing!!! 

The Olympic View Eagle Eye Engineers went to compete at High Tech High last weekend against 38 other Robotic Teams.  We came in 2nd for Core Values and we are in the top 8 to advance on to the next level of competition at LEGOLAND this December!!! I am so proud of both my boys.  Jackson is a full member and Charlie is a junior member of the team!  Yeah!!! 

This Halloween... my boys were as you can guess, not cute little trick or treaters... I wanted some cute costumes, but when you have boys...it's werewolf time and assassins from a video game!  Oh well... they still love to carve pumpkins and go trick or treating with Mommy and Daddy!               Halloween at school...started with a school wide parade...then a Halloween party ensued in my class and in Buggy's class...sorry Bud...not too much fun in the rest of your school day!  Buggy the werewolf and Mrs. C, the goose from Charlotte's Web! Jackson as Connor from Assassins Creed and Mrs. Umali... a superhero! Mommy, as Fern and her werewolf! Grandma came to help out for the party and got to see the parade too!  Popcorn and candy corn hands!!! Witch and broom races! Jackson and his buddies! Charlotte's Web cast of characters!  T...
