Thursday was a beautiful sunshine day and after dinner the kids, minus Kenedy, biked over to Hero's Park while Heather and I drove to drop off cookies to a couple of friends in the Ward and then we met them at the park. The park was really busy because of all the families taking advantage of the sunshine but Ryker, Avy and Rylee had fun running around and playing amongst the chaos.
Avynlea had to make a cell model of a plant using any materials she wanted for her science class. It was due the week after spring break but her teacher told them they would get extra credit for turning it in early. Avynlea wanted to make an edible plant cell and decided to make a cake.
The sun coming in was making it hard for Avynlea to see what she was doing so she put on her sunglasses while she worked.
She picked the perfect time to do it because Heather is a Biology Teacher and was able to give her ideas and tips. 
The cake turned out looking really good and while Heather and I helped, Avynlea did most of the work making all the different components.
I was worried about her taking the cake to school on the bus and didn't want anything to happen to it so I told Avynlea to leave it at home and that we would bring it to her school in time for second period. Which we did. A couple of the other kids in her class also brought in cell models made from cakes and so this class had a lot of yummy things to eat.
Rylee started a quilt on her last track break for Kylie's baby but then it got put on hold and was not finished. With her baby due so soon I knew Rylee needed to finish her project this track break and had her get to work Thursday and Friday to finish it. She was able to get it done and it turned out so cute, again so impressed with my kids talents and skill and we love how the quilt turned out.
Avynlea made a couple of really cute stuffed animals for Kylie's baby, an elephant and a seahorse rattle. They were really cute also and we are excited for the baby to use them and love on them.
