It Takes A Village

The week before Christmas, Eden's grade had an open house for us to view her gingerbread village they had been creating all month long. It was a large project that encompassed all four first grade classes and all of the subjects. They mixed and baked little dough people and got to design and build their homes and workplaces. They learned about the different jobs they picked to do. Eden was a nurse at the hospital. She was very excited to share everything they had learned and gave us a nice tour when we arrived. Dan was able to take his lunch late so he could come too!





We were finally able to connect with some of the other parents too, which was great. Eden's teacher this year is Mrs. Schroeder--we adore her! She's a fantastic teacher. We're very blessed with this school district as a whole. And in August, Eden will go to the new school being built right acroos the road from our house! No more driving kids to school! Woot woot!
