The Reading Conference

E and I attended the annual Reading Conference at a nearby college this past month. Every year they have authors come visit, the scholastic book fair, and dozens of organizations with booths full of activities for the kids. In the past, they have also offered workshops to local teachers, childcare workers and parents to teach various topics such as tips on how to help kids read and retell stories. It's a fun event.

Frog and Toad station- making frog puppets. 
Fancy Nancy station- making fancy hats.
Making books
 
She got to sit in on a fun author story time.
This is Kimberly P. Johnson. She's a native author of several books including The Adventures of the Itty Bitty Frog, Bunny, and Spider stories.
E made a jeweled ring out of a juice tab.
She had a great day...can you tell?
 I loved spending time with just my little girl.
Even when she's a crazy giggler.

She is crazy for sure. That looks like it was a lot of fun. I am glad that you girls get to have "girl time." Also, I think you are one of the most photogenic people ever. You always look good in a picture. (And by the way, this is not Erik. I am just too lazy to sign him out and retype this. :) Love you!
