WW: School Events {Linky}

Mica's school had Grandparent's Day a few weeks ago. Grandparents go and have lunch with their grandson or granddaughter. We just got the picture back:

Great Aunt Becky (the one in pink) went. Mica calls her, "Grandma" more then "Aunt Becky".  The other two are my parents. In total Mica has 2 living grandmas, 2 living grandpas, 1 living great grandpa, 1 living great step grandma that he's never met and Great Aunt Becky that he calls, "Grandma" sometimes.

Then last week his school had a Dog Story Session. People with well trained dogs came to read dog books to the kids. Once they heard three stories, the kids got to go take their stamped book mark over to get popcorn and bottled water.

The kids with Mica and Isaak are two of Mica's friends. Their parents gave me permission to post the next two photos.

The next picture is a great image of Isaak, but Mica has his eyes closed. Isaak LOVES animals. I always feel bad because we can never have any furry pets. I have stupid allergies.

Three Books I'll Never Throw Away

There is always going to be certain things you just don't want to throw out. These three books I want to hold on to!

This one is the best book! It has some really cool, historic stories. A story about how to make paint out of berries, another one about Ben Franklin, another one about Daniel Boone and more. The copyright dates are 1895 and 1923. Yep it's super old!

This book is filled with illustrations by Howard Pyle and N.C. Wyeth. Both I teach about in my college Illustration course. They are classics. N.C.. Wyeth is interesting because he had a son Andrew Wyeth that has work in many museums and a grandson Jamie Wyeth that is a well known photographer. My mom used to read stories and nursery rhymes out of this book to me.

My mom read stories out of this book as well.

Do you have any books you hold on to?
