Tessellation

What is a tessellation?

A tessellation is created when a shape is repeated over and over again covering a plane without any gaps or overlaps.

Hailey started with a rectangle and then converted it to this...

and that one shape repeated over and over became this...

Silly Girls

I don't know these silly girls, but I've been told it's Brooke, her friend Harlea, Kelly and Hailey.

Yep, thanks to Hailey they came up with some creative ways to have fun with medical tape.

Roses are Red

I'm not real sure what to think about this, but a 6th grade boy at Hailey's school made her this rose out of duct tape. The tape it wrapped around a writing pen. He called her out of class to her locker to give it to her.

Is he talented...you bet!

Is he a secret admirer...not sure!

Spring Pictures

I waited too long to take pictures in the flowers this Spring; therefore, they weren't as vibrant as when they first popped out. But...still worth posting!

Bluebonnets

I found these flowers in downtown Montgomery. I'm not sure what kind they are, but they sure were pretty.

Four Generations

This picture represents four generations - a mixture of several families.

Back Row: Gunter, Jan, Charlotte, Great Aunt Cecile, Uncle Darrell, Aunt Delores

Middle Row: Debbie, Me

Front Row: Hailey, Brooke, Kelly

It wasn't planned. We stopped by my uncle's house to visit with Gunter and Jan who are here from Germany visiting. My Great Aunt Cecile (my maternal grandmother's baby sister and last living sibling) asked how many generations were present. Four = picture time!

Beauty and the Beast

Brooke and I had a special night out last Friday. We went with two of her friends and their Mom to see Beauty and the Beast at Conroe High School. It was an excellent youth production! I'm not sure who enjoyed it more...the parents or the girls.

Brooke, Harlea and Grace @ McDonald's before the play. What were we thinking when we decided to let the girls pick our dinner destination??

The Beast!

They loved the production and really enjoyed getting autographs and pictures after the play.
