Our Noah Webster Noble Knights Science Geeks. :-)
For the past (many months) few months we have been working with Mikayla and her partner Nathan on practicing and preparing for the State Science Olympiad. It was held this past Saturday at Weber State. Holy Cow what a day. We got up at 4:30 am and left Orem at 5:30. We thought our first event was at 9 am. Well there was a little mis-understanding our first event was not until noon. So Deborah (Nays mom) and I tried to not be too frustrated. Hey we were the first ones there. The kids competed in "Write it Do it". They said it was harder than they thought it would be. And then in the afternoon they did "Mystery Archetect". We waited around, ate, went to a movie, kids played games and ran around. Then we went to the awards ceremony. 90% of the teams competing were in Jr. High and High School. Our teams were 6th graders. So, when Mikayla and Nathan got the silver medal (second place) and a scholarship,we were thrilled for them. Yeah Mikayla and Nathan! You kids did great and we are so proud of you! We are hoping that they will get the chance to compete with each other again next year.

How would it be to be 11 and already have scholarships!
