Iced Tea Stand and Fundraiser

On Saturday we had an iced tea stand.  I also made bracelets to help raise money for Justice.  Justice is our friend from 100 Mile who is fighting Leukaemia.  We made $67.45.  We just found out today that he is in remission!

Serving Project

Recently we did a serving project at the Seniors Home. We made rice crispy treats for the Staff

and bracelets for the Residents. The staff and residents loved their goodies.

We made 50 Bracelets!

Cooking Challenge

For our cooking challenge, we were attempting to make a meal for 7 kids and 3 adults and only $10.  

We had been studying how to budget so we created the scenario.

We bought macaroni & cheese, garlic bread, cheese and carrots.  It was an orange meal!

We learned that it is hard to buy food for a whole family on a small budget. 

 We ended up spending $10.58.

It was a fun experience!

Picking out our food.

A little mishap along the way.

Gymnastics

Recently I have been doing a gymnastics class.  We have been learning how to hand stand, cartwheel, do the bars, trampoline, faults and beam.  I go with my friends Emily and Lizzie.  The most difficult thing is the bars because we have to learn to do things like "skin the cat", pull-overs and chin holds.  I've been getting better at cartwheels and handstands.  This has been a really fun experience because I've been able to see the hard work it takes to be a gymnast.
