Back to school after a holiday

Jena, Scott, and Chantel all headed back ot school after the holidays.  Scott and Chantel are starting their last semester at Weber State (although Scott may need to go into the summer for his internship).  They are excited to finish this part of their studies.  Jena went back for the last two weeks of her semester and had a geography project her first day back.  She had to do some type of art related to Mexico or Central and South America.  After Internet research, she (and I) decided to do a mosaic.  Here is her final design.  Thank heavens for the Internet to get good clear directions on what to buy and how to do it and for Michaels for having the raw materials we were looking to buy.  She painted, designed, glued, gouted, and finished it with mostly just directions from me.  She was very happy with it.






This is a picture of the hair bow Jena made in Young Women's the first week of the month.
Everyone loved Jena's.  I guess she was the only young women who thought to put two different colors together for one of the flowers.  The leaders were thrilled with how well she did and how creative she was.
Of course, this is the only time you will see it in her hair as she does not like headbands.
It is cute, anyway!

Jena's new semester started this week although she has missed two days with a bad cold.  She has mainly the same classes but is now taking a cooking class instead of dance.  Two more weeks until her class's production of "Guys and Dolls".  She is so excited.
