Angelique's Science Fair project




For Angelique's final report for 4th grade, she had to have an entry for the science fair report. She did it on the effect that different sugars have on teeth and which one would start to show decay first. She used white sugar, Sierra Mist soda pop, evaporated cane juice, and raw honey. The teeth in the soda pop decayed first and then the teeth in the raw honey. Strangely, the honey turned to alcohol. The bacteria fed on the honey and turned it to alcohol. We thought that was very interesting. Anyway, she didn't win, but it was fun doing the project. Her friend Emily was right next to her, so I thought it would be fun to get a picture of them together!




In working with my camera trying how to take the pictures of the little teeth, I figured out how to do the close-up option. I took these close up pictures of the girls. I love how they turned out!

Day four and day five - Sunday trip to the temple and coming home






After church we went to the temple to take family pictures and individual pictures of the kids. Their pictures are on the side bars and these are the family pictures.
I think I want to go to our temple here and re-do the girls pictures. I didn't get to curl their hair like I wanted to.

Then we went to Jeanette's for our Easter family dinner. I don't know what it is about Sunday afternoons, but after dinner we crashed as we do every Sunday afternoon.
We had a nice visit with family that evening and then we were off to bed.

Monday morning, Matt made breakfast while I got everything ready to pack into the car. We left Jeanette's and picked up the girls at my mom's house. Then we headed home. It was a nice vomit-free trip home. The kids watched Despicable Me, Tangled, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 1.



This is a picture of Marni's 4 younger girls and my 4 girls. They are inseparable when we come here!

If you are reading this and you live there and I didn't contact you, I am truely sorry. It really was a busy and exhausting weekend. Hopefully next time.
