After going to a 12 year old's birthday party, I am quite the shocked. I have forgotten how CRAZY and HYPER 11 and 12 year olds are even though I tutored six graders last year. The group of girls asked me to help them make rice krispie treats and I complied since it was easy and thought it'd be fun. It took a while for them to get all the supplies they needed from around the kitchen and then one of the girls started eating the marshmallows from the bag before we even started (uh...haha). I quickly ushered them to the stove where I gave each of them something to do, whether it was melting the butter, opening the box of cereal/pouring it in, pouring in the marshmallows, or stirring the whole thing together. This is where they went crazy and started yelling and laughing like crazy. Nevertheless, the rice krispies came out alright (can it even go wrong??) and the girls were happy.

Oh! and here's the kid with the fluffy hair. He's such a cutie!

Here's some kids art as well :)

I've known this kiddo since he was born and he's quite the amusing and cute. Look at his fun hair! hahah he just woke up and it was like that. He loves when my brother goes over to his house because that means he gets to play on the wii (which he normally doesn't get to) so it's pretty cute watching him ask my brother to go over to play.

I apologize if these pictures aren't good. I was sick the day we went on our field trip with the kids. But yea..enjoy :) btw, these pictures aren't edited minus the first one which i cropped and added contrast to and the window one.

One of the exhibits at Cal Science Center when we went--Conduct your own CSI investigation. It was very cool.
