Welcome to my new blog!

Welcome to my new blog. I'm 8 years old. I have a mommy, daddy and two brothers. My mommy has a blog.  My daddy can't put up a blog. He works too much to have time for that. He does have a company of his own. My 5 year old brother has a blog too. My two-year old brother doesn't have a blog, because he's too young.



Here is a picture of my dad's side of the family.





Here is a picture of my mom's side of the family.





My mom was pregnant with my baby brother in both of those pictures, so here is a recent picture of me and my brothers and my mommy:





This is my first time I have ever had a blog. I want to show you some of my new crafts. Here are some pictures of me and my crafts.



The Croatoan tree from the Lost Colony of Roanoke. We've been learning about that.



The model I made of Jamestown. Mommy printed it from homeschoolinthewoods.com for me at Grandpa's house. Then I colored it and cut it.



My Indian mask. I made this when we were learning about New World Explorers. I made with a heavy paper plate. Then I twisted tinfoil for the shapes on the face. I put the tinfoil with tape. Then we dipped paper into homemade glue and laid the paper on the plate and got mommy's hands all messy. And then I let it dry for a day. The next day, I spray painted it with my spray paint that's gold.
