We have participated in the local "Trahin' Fashion" show the past few years.  The idea is to make an outfit out of recycled trash.  This year I made Amelia's dress out of recycled topo maps of the local area.  Someone had given us LOTS of maps when they moved and this proved to be something good to do with them.  Reid's outfit (he is a hunter by the way! ) is made from recycled calendar pages with wildlife photos.  His hunting rifle is made from papertowel and toilet paper rolls.  They both won a trophe and a $25 gift certificate to local businesses. 

Amelia and Ayla adore their teacher, Mrs. Martin.  We had her and her husband over for dinner after school was out.
