Tuesday Ben & Jerry's(Tom & Jerry's to Alex) had their day of free ice cream so we headed to Wayzata to wait in line. Mostly High School kids were in line and thought it was ok to get in line again. We had to eat in the car because it was cold and windy by the still icy lake. Thursday I got to read a book to Evan's class, because he was Star of the Week. I read Duck & Goose which is a cute story about a duck and goose who find an "egg" which is really a ball and they become friends while waiting for it to hatch. Evan and his class are piloting a program called Vinci which is a tablet they use to build math skills. After the story they spent 20 minutes working on them. It was interesting to watch them ask questions when they got stuck and see how some sit at tables and some on the floor. The garage floor was really dirty and dusty from this long winter so we mopped it. Saturday night we grilled out and ate on the deck! Sunday was not so nice. Alex used some birthday money to buy this new Lego set. He did these two pieces with a little help mostly on his own reading the instructions. Saturday the Lionel catalogs came in the mail and Alex was dreaming about all the trains he wants to buy!
