The Dinosaur Diorama (or Diarrhea)

Aiden got a homework assignment over Spring Break. To create a dinosaur diorama. He chose the Ankylosaurus because it had an outer shell like an armadillo that protected it from predators like the T-Rex (he's all boy!) He had to write a 3 sentence report about it and everything. He did great...we were VERY proud of him! Of course if Aiden made one Elaina had to make one, too. However, she got the name wrong. One morning we woke up and I asked Aiden if he was ready to color the walls for his diorama and Elaina said (in a very whiney voice) "But, Momma I wanna color my diarrhea, too!" Out of the mouths of babes, right?!

Thailand Pics

Here is a link (which I hope works) to our Kodak Gallery album of our Thailand trip. It was amazing. There truly are no words for the trip. All we can tell you is that if you ever get a chance to go to Thailand...GO! The elephants were definitely our favorite part, hands down. We have such a great respect for them now. We joke that we're elephant activists and our group is called Sete...Smiley's for the Ethical Treatment of Elephants. The beaches are beautiful, like nothing we've ever seen before and Bangkok was great.
