Snow 2/12/2010

SNOW MUCH FUN!

It was February 12th and we woke up to a glorious sight!
SNOW IN TEXAS!

Returning from 2 Nights @ Camp Tyler

The 5th grade Camp Tyler trip is a "right of passage" for all 5th graders in the Tyler School District. It poured down rain all day yesterday, but from what we've heard he had a blast! He got home and headed straight outside to play in "the woods" aka. the empty lot beside us. We're going out to celebrate tonight....Tuck's camp experience and Pablo's great meetings in NC this week.

5th Grade Science Fair!

The 5th grade Science Fair was last week at Jack Elementary. Tucker worked so very hard and was excited about his entry! He kept saying, "I hope that I get an A"! He did more than that! His project was named, "Best Environmental", and one of the judges said that Tucker had the best presentation! He will be going to a Regional Fair with some of the other students from Jack at Kilgore College in March. We're not proud and excited for him, are we?!!!!

I did it!!!!! It's a miracle!!!!

Hello blogging world! Can't believe that I'm doing this. I've gotten the template set up, a title and a picture downloaded! That doesn't mean you will be able to view it, (ha,ha) but it is in there somewhere. I know that I've said the word I about 10 times already, but I am soooo excited that I was able to do this "ALL BY MYSELF"!

Tucker is off at camp for the first time in his life and here I am with all of this uninterrupted time. The school takes all 5th graders to overnight camp for 2 nights. It's sort of a right of passage in Tyler,TX! Tucker is a very cautious little guy and we encouraged him to go and he finally let go and was very excited about going! Praise God!

This is the Brinkman Family Blog and we are excited to share some of our Pura Vida moments with the Blogging world!

Over and out for the first BLOG!!!!
