January 2019 - Reception and EE Night

This is the only photo that I have from either of Jessalyn's and Skyler's receptions.  The reception photos are recorded in the Bartholomew archives.  :)  Here are Barbara and Sandy Mondragon and Aysha serving drinks at the Pocatello reception on January 12, 2019:



Here are the newlywed's cups at a dinner at Gran and Grand dad's house:
"The Cool Guy" Skyler and Jessalyn Bartholomew


On January 23, we attended the Expedition Exhibition, or EE Night, at Pocatello Community Charter School.  Alexander, Dallin, and Emerald displayed all of their hard Expedition work over the school year.

Alexander's expedition was studying potatoes, life cycles, and living and non-living things:









Some of his other projects included studying the ways in which people are different:



And a painting exploring over and under:

Alexander says, "It was very hard work, and I got annoyed over it."


One of Dallin's expeditions was the Revolutionary War. Here is his political cartoon of the Stamp Act:


Here is a Venn Diagram of the original 13 colonies that Dallin worked for two weeks on and was very annoyed with.  He wanted to make it a humorous piece, but his teacher insisted that he take it very seriously:


This was Dallin's favorite project of the year: His class and their reading buddies read the book, Animals Should Definitely Not Wear Clothing by Judi Barrett and Ron Barrett.  

Then each of the students came up with articles of clothing that some animals should definitely not wear.  In this drawing, Dallin illustrated that a dolphin should not wear a tuxedo, because it would wear it in the wrong places: 



Emerald's class studied dictators of the world and created masks representing each one.  Emerald's dictator was Idi Amin:




Emerald's favorite expedition that she has been looking forward to for years is building a tiny house.  Ever since she saw the older kids building tiny houses, she has been planning her own tiny house.  And finally the moment came!

Emerald's tiny house is in the foreground, with the grey roof on.

Here it is with the roof off.

Here is a closer look inside.  Notice the swimming pool on the lower right.


Here are some random selfies of Aysha and her Captain America shield pillow:



After Jessalyn's wedding and reception, I decided to cut my hair short and grow out my bangs for the first time ever!
