Hello out there and Happy Halloween!
First off, here are a few things that our fab Student Researchers like about this spooky day:
Kelsey - I like seeing all the little kids dressed in costumes. It's so cute!
Rebekah - I like getting all dressed up and handing out candy to all of the excited trick or treaters!
Kennen - I like making my own creative costume...as long as it is not too hot to wear!
We got some business out of the way so we could get to the fun stuff. Item one - Prep for The UN day coming up on December 3rd - We are excited that Kin students Jenny and Chelsea will be joining us for coffee today to give us our schedule for class presentations leading up to the date!
Item two - Discussion about our final Douglas Park day coming up on November 26.
Now the fun - inspired by Rebekah's mime work yesterday, we played an old fashioned game of (Halloween) charades. We must (modestly) say that our acting skills are pretty great.
If sweet treats are your thing, there was plenty of great food to go around today. Hopefully there are no tooth aches are coming our way.
Rebekah - Hey Mom and Dad! Hope you are having fun! Can't wait to hear about how much fun you had.
Kennen - Sara! Thank you so much for knitting me the great pumpkin hat! I love it.

Flipping the bird!
Hello out there!
Inside joke title...let's just say it was a fabulous and funny day at the ol' A!TLC! We started slow and Avery feared that she might be the only Student Researcher in the room. But then in burst Kaitlyn, Kennen, and Rebekah (we miss you on Wednesdays, Kelsey!) and there were stories and GOOD NEWS (a secret, for now!) and the fun really began. We worked hard on the One Page Project and tried to come up with creative ways to explain "who" we are. Things are looking good and each page will be really, really great (if we do say so ourselves).
Rebekah was so happy to have her very dear friend, Barbara join us for coffee today. Rebekah met Barbara in the Ad Hum Building and showed her the way to coffee - which is a great thing because Barbara said that she might have gotten lost otherwise! :)
Join us, join us, join us for Inclusion Café at the Owl tomorrow! As usual, it will be a very good time indeed.

Turkey Tired!
Hello out there!
It was a great Thanksgiving long weekend and we are a bit tired from all of the delicious turkey!
For her check in, Rebekah shared an awesome and interesting video of her cousin's wedding. Amazing! Congratulations Jill and Farhan - you are such a lovely couple. And in other Rebekah news - she is an auntie for the FIFTH time. Welcome to the world, beautiful baby boy Jonah Joshua Lindenbach!
Kelsey had the chance to confirm her strengths, dreams, and needs with the A!TLC crew. It was a great time to learn just a little bit more about Ms. Culbert!
We are delighted to be taking part in the U of R's One Page Project! Each Student Researcher will have their very own page in a book that will be published in February 2014. Thank you so much to the Fine Art Department's Art Store, for inviting us to be a part of this exciting project!
Kelsey would like to say hello to her Auntie Jody - Are you reading this, Jody??? Thank you for reading the blog each day. :)

Kelsey may have a very confused Stepdad after he received #brownsugarbacon. LOL
Rebekah is excited that big PATH things are happening and wants us to stay tuned!
Avery is excited to rest up for tomorrow....hopefully this darn cold will be gone by then!
