Willy Walton's Chocolate Factory

Mackenzie and Emily went to the University on Saturday for a great program presented by SIFE - Willy Walton's Chocolate Factory. They learned all about different aspects of business including economics, finance, accounting, marketing, management, and business ethics.

Mackenzie's group (below) created a business selling Big Red Chocolates - Razorback shaped chocloate available with strawberry, cherry or caramel filling. Their factory is located in Little Rock, Arkansas. They get their cocoa beans from Mexico, milk from Arkansas, sugar from Brazil, strawberries from Arkansas and their cherries from Canads. They plan to sell Big Red Chocolate at all Razorback athletic games They will utilize trucks for transportation and the will never tell a lie (ethics).

Mackenzie had a great time and learned a lot. I'd buy Big Red Chocolate - wouldn't you?!

House For Sale!

We have our house up for sale and we are all very excited! Except maybe for Peyton who left this sign up in the playroom when they showed our house today...who can blame her? It's the only home she's ever known.

Happy Valentine's Day - A Day Late

Why a day late? Peyton's out of school this week and spent the night with a friend so she wasn't here yesterday morning. Mackenzie had school pictures and NO Valentine celebrating at school(this makes me so sad)...so we took a picture this morning.

Bella

We had dinner with our friends - Chris, Ronna & Bella Friday night and I had to post this picture because Bella is so cute!

Peyton's Valentine Party

Peyton had her Valentine's Day party at school today because her school is on a break next week. She had a great time!

"Peyton, please go pick your room up."

I haven't been posting too much on this one - not because I'm so super busy posting on my new blog with my completely random thoughts on things (because it only takes a moment to post new things, hint hint to my non-blogging readers), it's because not too much has been going on.

So,I thought I should find something to post here, even if it happened almost a year ago...Short story long, we all have been taking turns being sick and when I had my turn a couple of weeks ago, I got a lot of pictures organized into different files. One of Peyton's files is titled "Getting Out of Cleaning" and it contains the photos below. Peyton went through a phase (and when I say phase, I mean it happened three times over the course of about a month) in late Spring last year where she would fall asleep cleaning her room...where ever she happened to be cleaning...

...under her bed after I said "Peyton clean out under your bed."


...on the closet floor after I said "Peyton, pick up your closet."


...on her bed (halfway) after I said "Peyton, please go put away your clothes."



Each of these naps lasted 30+ minutes...I guess she really didn't want to pick-up!
