Yes, you say it looks like a fish, yet he is really a dog! Don't let the fins, scales, swimming in the water, etc confuse you. We got our dog last month at a wedding reception. We started out with a fish, fish bowl and rocks. It turned into a dog, plant, "cave home" and tons of food. This so called "fish" is a finicky eater. We bought the Betta flakes...he would only eat the brine shrimp in it. I bought "baby shrimp", we would eat that sometimes and sometimes not, then I heard about pellets and blood worms, so I bought both of these. He eats the pellets (regular food) and he LOVES the blood worms.
Here is what we did for Eilish's hair the first day. I figured since we sell "From Egg to Chicken Life Cycle Log books", that I would put "eggs" in her hair. She was a hit that day. A couple of people asked if they could take her picture. Don't ask me why she is making that face?
The next day, about 1/2 hour before we closed down for the day, Brandon came running in saying he saw Robbie (One of our host sons). He said their bus was outside. Indeed there was a bus. I couldn't figure out why they would be at the convention center. Nephi then came running in saying they were all on the bus. I figured they would be taking off as they were performing a concert tonight here in Anchorage. Just then the BYU singers started filing into the hall. I was so shocked that they were here at the fair. They sang a song called "Little Potato" (funny song), said "Hi" and then left. I later found out from a couple of them that they were sight seeing downtown when their conductor saw the sign for the IDEA Home school Curriculum Fair. He has 9 children and they home school also, so he decided to stop the bus and check it out. He then got back on the bus and told everyone that they were going to sing a song there. Let me tell you that made all of our day. It was so good to see everyone again, let alone hear their wonderful songs. We then later on that night went to the concert. What a great day it was. Kids really enjoyed it.
(Sorry for the bad photos, my hubby took the pictures.)
Eilish made this frame at the Curriculum fair and when she got home, the next day, she cut out the picture of the BYU-Idaho singers from their program and glued it into her frame. Like I said, this is what an impacted the singers have made on my children.
They sang at Palmer High School on Sat. Sunday they went to church with their host families and since we had 8 singers in our ward, they sang in Sacrament. That evening they put on a wonderful Fireside.
They will be singing in Anchorage on the 24th and since we will be in Anchorage at the fair, we will go and hear them sing again (feeling like a groupy,hahaha).
Here is one of the songs they performed.
Eilish said she felt like a princess. We had fun doing this hairdo.
After the Easter Egg grab, we then headed off to a Birthday party. The kids loved this as they had a live owl there. I wish I had pictures to show yet I don't. We then came home and the kids colored eggs.
I don't know what kind of "drug" Nephi was on.
