Novali and the Bee
So 2009 is off to a good start! Last week Novali had a school spelling bee. She qualified as a handful of 2nd graders who spelled all their words right in their classroom activities. The school had 6 students per class that would compete for one spot in the district spelling bee. I took the afternoon off of work to go and see the spelling bee.
I posted more details on her website: Spelling Bee

The big winner! |
I also had Novali for the following weekend. She had Friday off, and I arranged to bring her to South Bend after the spelling bee. I luckily got Friday off as a snow day at IU South Bend.... Four Day Weekend! Unfortunately it was nearly 30 below zero, WOW. We enjoyed some indoor activities, we saw High School Musical 3 on campus sponsored by my programming board, we entertained some of my fraternity visitors, and then finally got to go outside and play in the snow. On the link above I have some photos of Novali playing outside. |

Well now it is back to the grind... over the weekend we practiced her new spelling list and this Thursday she has the bigger spelling bee. Weather permitting I will be ducking out a little early from work again to get to Chicago for that as well. Wish Novali luck!|
