Picture Book Winner!

Last Fall, Abby entered a Picture Book contest sponsored by our local library. A few months ago, we found out that she had taken 2nd place in the Grades 2-3 category for the entire county. She was so excited!!

On Thursday, May15th we attended a special award reception at the Library for all of the winners. Abby did a great job presenting her book and enjoyed reading and listening about the other winners and their stories.


Winners from all the categories (Grades 2-3, 4-5, 6-8, 9-12 and Adult)
(This picture of all the winners was also included in the newspaper...another exciting event for Abby!)

The next day we headed back to the Library for their monthly LEGO build (can you tell we LOVE our local library?!?!) This time the object was to build an animal or habitat. Landon built a farm, Abby built a zoo, and Nolan...well he just had a good time using all the different LEGO pieces!

Maybe I should look into seeing what is offered at our library. I usually have us go more during the summer because they don't have the school library to borrow books from anymore.
Congratulations to Abby!!! She is such a great girl with SOOO much talent. Her siblings have big shoes to fill:)
