Marching On Toward Spring Break!!!!!!!

Dearest Parents, Happy Tuesday!!!!!!! My weekly post is a little late this week.  I was out on Monday and half day today.  I was glad to get back to my lively crew.  Here are a couple of updates for this week.   Read and enjoy.

The Little White House Trip

We had a most amazing time at the Little White House.  The kids enjoyed seeing many of the  things that they had learned about Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt.  The weather was good.  We didn't freeze and were able to have lunch outside.  Here are a few photos from our trip.
