The most important thing to do on you day off from school is to dress properly for playing out in the snow. Socks, Boots, Jacket, Gloves, they are all optional. What was that I was saying about Boots.......
Honest, Dad, I'm not cold at all. I don't need no stink'n jacket. I could sit here all day.
Maybe if I do some work, that will warm me up.
All by myself, just want to be..... Sing it Gilbert....
Nothing like some good eats to take the chill away. Heaven..
You did what!! Lets throw a snowball at our sister when she is on blades and blowing bubbles....
Bubbles, Bubbles, Bubbles..... I love my days off..
Today was Miranda's 9'th birthday. Grama, Grandpa, Grammy, Papa and Uncle Ben and Adele stopped over. It was like Christmas all over. This kid gets way to much stuff. I think everyone is trying to make up for the fact that it right after Christmas.
Start that day off with some new games for the DS.
Hurry Grammy, take the picture, my arms are getting tired.
I guess school is starting to pay off. This year Miranda was able to read all the cards.
Don't for get about me dad!
Is that a boom box she is pulling out of that cat's head? STICKERS !!! STICKERS!!! What's this?? a picture. This is a picture of the new mirror for Miranda's bedroom soon to come in. All-right - It's cake time.... Mini cakes. Now for the mug shots. Miranda has to do a report in March on her family. So today we took a couple of mug shots of Grammy and Papa.
Thats right, this is my mean look.....
At the rate I have been going, it looks like my next post may not be till July for Matt's Birthday. Last year was a very busy year and I fell a little behind in the M2Place blog. Lets hope for a few more pictures this year.
Matthew had his choice of a number of five star restaurants to pick from for his birthday dinner. Guess what he picked. The PALACE -- well the Palace Diner...
Hey, at least it was not McDonald's.
Matt and Miranda started the evening off with some drinks.......
Then some fine apps... Lemon Drops these are not!!
A meal fit for a king - Bacon, eggs and home fries. Yea Baby...
Matt cleared his plate by the end of the night.
No Birthday would not be complete without Ice Cream and a candle. The staff sang Happy Birthday for Matthew.
I can do it... I can do it... Really - I can have this cookie, Thanks nice Diner Man.....
oooooooh boy, this is going to be good!!!
Homeward bound to open some presents....
Cool - something else I can bank into the chairs and table...

Miranda entered the Science Fair at her school. She did it on putting out fire with CO2. She wanted to make sure that it was perfect, so she scripted her presentation. Once she had it perfect, we printed out her script on index cards.
The text of this blog is the script that Miranda came up with.
My project is about putting out fire with Carbon Dioxide.
Their are three parts to make a fire, they are: Fuel, Heat, Oxygen. If you take away any one, the fire will go out.
For example if you away the Fuel you will not have a Fire. If you take away the Heat with water, you will not have a fire. For my expreiment I will be talking away the oxygen with Carbon Dioxide (CO2) I will be making Carbon Dioxide by mixing Vinegar with Baking Soda. The reason it puts out the file is because Carbon Dioxide is heaver then oxygen. It is now making Carbon Dioxide in the jar. I can show you with the demonstration
When I start, the jar is filled with oxygen. Since the CO2 is heaver, it pushes the oxygen up and out of the jar making the flame go out. I can now show you a shot video since I am not allowed to use fire at the Science Fair.

Getting my certificate and metal for entering the Science Fair from my teacher.
