Hammer And A Nail


LDC in her Grandpa's woodworking apron
It was a busy morning....How paint colors are professionally mixed...seeing lots of electrical appliances with buttons and lights....and pictured below--the most mesmerized audience of little ones checking out a fork lift in action.
After our tour we started our toolbox workshop.

5 o'clock somewhere

The one seated on the left is enjoying his very fun gift to The Original Craft Beer Club....in the glass pictured is-Wild Ride IPA, Sand Creek Brewing Company.
Seated on the right is an honorary member of the Little Glass Club with 7,183 days until she turns 21 and gains full membership...in her glass is water.
Cheers.

Pizza Making Play

Uncle Drew and Aunt Shelby spoiled LDC with her own kitchen for Christmas.  We put it to good use when we hosted a Pizza Making Playgroup this week. 
 Our little chef friends were able to pick their own toppings for their english muffin pizza and to pick their own mustache.

Career Day

Our visit to EdVenture included 10 year old Eddie-- you can climb his vertebrae to his brain, crawl through his heart, bounce around inside his stomach and slide out his intestines.
(you don't write a sentence like that everyday)
Columbia,SC
 
It's like Career Day but the sky is the limit...
An artist and musician
Surgeon

Geneticist
   Dentist

Farmer
LDC's personal favorite- a veterinarian
(As you listen to the video clip be thinking...."Based on last year’s data, it is estimated that 10 percent of the South Carolina population (about 400,000 people) will have flu by the end of this year’s flu season."  SCDHEC)
Firefighter
My favorite picture....a housewife with three Mac n Cheese in her cart (Andy's child no doubt)

One word

Before the rain started up (again) we explored the Red Cliffs in Hitchcock Woods.

On our hike to the cliffs, we each chose one word to describe what we hoped 2013 would hold for us.  Our words....
Fun
(The "U" was a horseshoe print on the sandy trail.)
Exciting

Happy

LDC picked the word Fun, Andy chose Happy and mine was Exciting...
Happy 2013.
