Kiddo #4 made a really cute, lined trick or treat bag in sewing class. This week, she tells me she is working on my Christmas present; it is top secret. :-) At home, she continues to sew everynight, making presents (which I can't show, obviously until after Christmas) and some things for herself including these pajama pants. It amazes me that this 10 year old kid can whip these out in a short period of time with pinked and pressed seams and all! Wow! (can you tell I'm a proud Mama?) :-)
There was also a 4-H meeting where the kids participated in a rocketry project, not only making, but launching their rockets.
We picked giant eggplant from our garden (look at the before and after! My parents made some great eggplant parmigiana with them!)
There was a local driving education class that Kiddo #1 attended last Sunday afternoon. It was definitely sobering watching some video footage and hearing from those who lost loved ones, but it really taught the kids a lot. They got to drive golf carts (hubby was supposed to distract him from within the cart. I was texting him from outside the cart AND he was wearing beer googles that distorted his vision). I think the teens really got an idea of what distractions there are while driving and how to avoid them.
In between all of these fun activities, the kiddos have managed to get done their schoolwork, take online classes, play some educational games and welcome the beginning of hockey season!
And there is always the spontaneous fun of seeing a nighttime visitor or doing schoolwork with your My Twinn doll. :-) Gotta love it!
And, for those who are following the videos of Kiddo #2 and 3, here is their latest installment just released today (Friday). :-)

She has done a wonderful job on her projects. You have every right to be one proud mama!!
What wonderful sewing projects. I think you are all doing great stuff.
Blessings, Dawn
What a sweet little sewer you have. It's a lost art, I tell you.
Beautiful wrap up
Wow what a great seemstress you have there. Great wrap up this week
That sounds like a pretty neat driving education class - driving the golf cart with all those distractions would probably make the point more effectively than just being told about it.
