What we did in Kennett, Missouri this week...

DUCK GUIDE'S WIFE...

I am not a shopper.  Let me rephrase that...Usually, I am not a shopper.  Staying in a camper on the outskirts of  Kennett, Missouri in the winter will make anyone with online shopping tendencies get out in the stores.

I had a great day of scores for my classroom...at the local Dollar Tree and Dollar General:) 
In the words of Chloe Jo..."Oh yeah, BULLS EYE!"


WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH A BAG OF "ROCKS" FOR A DOLLAR?

We made shapes...

and turned the circle into a face...

and then I did this as I spelled her name:) 

Chloe Jo's favorite thing in the whole wide world still is her rock collection.  It was so windy, muddy, and cold in Missouri that we just bought some "rocks" on our shopping spree.  Funny how something like this can keep us occupied for hours. 


HELPING DADDY WITH THE DECOYS...

The sweetest thing and the main reason I make the trip to the camper is because my little girl just happens to be a daddy's girl.  I totally get that from when I was little myself.  I love on her...read books...play games...teach her things...discipline her...take care of her...but no one does anything like her daddy...and I'm okay with that:)

I am not so sure she will actually hunt ducks and geese.  The wind was blowing so hard that you could actually hear gunfire around us.  Chloe Jo looked at me so serious one morning and said..."Those guys are gonna shoot this camper right over.  If they shoot this camper over they will be in BIG trouble, Mama!"

As we were driving along the road later on you could see birds everywhere and she was saying..."those ducks are gonna get shot, Mama...I can't take it"  <as she covered her eyes>  haha  So, David better get busy he has a tender hearted little girl who is actually worried about the ducks. 

One thing she does like is helping with the decoys in her "work boots".  Good times:)
