Crazy Hair

Hi!Abigail here!!
On Friday, March 27, 2009 it was crazy hair day at school. Me having long hair knew I had to do something. So mom did my hair and this is how it turned out!!!!! Everybody loved my hair including me!!

Thaddeus Dale Knowles!!

Our house has a very unique character, our Thaddeus! Since our grandmother has insisted that every child do a blog entry regularly, little Thaddeus has been eager to do his blog. So this entry is going to be about things that Thaddeus picks himself to be recorded. (Eliza is doing all of the actual recording, with Thaddeus dictating.
This previous week, we rented the movie "High School Musical 3". Thaddeus being much like his older brother Trevor, can never just sit through the movie, he has to be doing what they are doing in the movie. The dance scenes in High School Musical 3 were highly inspiring to Thaddeus and when ever we watch it, he dances along. One night we decided to record some of our favorite dance moves from the song, "The boys are back".



When Thaddeus is not dancing, is modeling his unique fashions!!!















One night Thaddeus couldn't find any pants. Mom told him that there were pants downstairs and thaddeus being a little self-conscious about stripping through the house so he decided that a foam roll would be better!! Don't you just love him?!

Hi -- Abigail here, with the question of the day.

Math Olympiad

Abigail again on this blog.

On Saturday March 14, Mom and I went to the final math Olympiad competition at Shorecrest high school.When we got there, we signed in and went to the "opening ceremonies." the opening ceremonies included the rules and thank yous to sponsors. We then went to our assigned classroom and took the first individual test. After we finished that we had a 10 minute break and took another individual test. Then we had a snack and went back in our classroom and took an easier team test. My team included me, Schuyler and Michael peters (they're twins). we finished that test and took yet another break and team test. Finally we had finished taking our tests and went to eat lunch. As soon as we were done with lunch we went to the gym for entertainment and door prizes. The entertainment was fabulous. It was a group of kids doing circus tricks. They had tightrope walking, juggling, plus lots more. Finally came the time for awards. I tied for 5 in individual and my team tied for 4.
At school the next Friday we had a party/award ceremony. I got in the top 3 for 4 grade girls and I got 4 right on one of the monthly tests, so I got recognized for that. I also got a participation award. I had a lot of fun and I'm going to do it next year.
