This month started off with a school science project. Lawson had to build a machine using items found around our house that would do a "job". The machine had to link 4 simple machines together and had to be triggered by one motion. She took a piece of a paper and sketched out what she thought would work to pop a balloon. We had to make a few modifications to her orignal design to make it actually work....which was to be expected. The first time that the machine worked...we all busted out in applause and cheering! It was funny how we were all so pumped about it actually working! She did a great job!
The first Friday in November Walmart toy vendors put on a big christmas event on the Bentonville Square. They give away lots of new toys, demo new toys that will be on shelves for Christmas and had one of the stars from the Disney Descendant movie put on a concert and sign autographs. We only had a few hours after school to attend before we had to be somewhere but we made them count.
As soon as we walked up we saw Sofia Carson (Evie on Disney Descendants), being interviewed by the local news. The sun was shining down on her and Lawson and I were like "Wow!" She is beautiful!
We tried standing in line but they cut it off before we got to her. The kids really wanted her autograph. We kept trying to get to her but didn't have much luck...
...until RIGHT before they pulled her back stage for her concert. I mean La and Hud got her last auto and selfie. Thank you Sophia! After watching her...while we waited for several hours...I was impressed with her poise and kindness.
We hit a putt putt course one friday afternoon. We had a good time. Some of us played golf and some of us played in the water!
I put out Mr. Turkey!
This was Lawson's first attempt at straightening her own hair! Pretty amazing! She is 11 going on 16!
And one of the best parts of the month was Lawson's first band concert! Pretty impressive the progress they are able to make after about 2 months of practice!
She just makes you smile!
