State History Assignment 12#

Song Title:
Beautiful Ohio
Written by Ballard MacDonald
special lyrics by Wilbert B. McBride
Composed by Mary Earl

Song Verses:

I sailed away;
Wandered afar;
Crossed the mighty restless sea;
Looked for where I ought to be.
Cities so grand, mountains above,
Led to this land I love.

Chorus

Beautiful Ohio, where the golden grain
Dwarf the lovely flowers in the summer rain.
Cities rising high, silhouette the sky.
Freedom is supreme in this majestic land;
Mighty factories seem to hum in tune, so grand.
Beautiful Ohio, thy wonders are in view,
Land where my dreams all come true!

When was it adopted? 1969
Who was it written by? Ballard Macdonald
What are your thoughts about it? I like it

Pics of My Christmas

I don`t have Pics of my Dad or of Daniel looking at the camera to put on here, but here are some of the pics that were taken Christmas morning:
Me and my sister`s with our new wrist warmers on,

Ben and his new little bag,


Daniel opening his bag that says Daniel over the front,

Mom with her new picture frames,

Joanna and Ben`s new farm house,

Tim and his eye spy container.
Hope you liked the pics.

Easy Christmas Gift Ideas 6#

Here`s today`s idea:
Take a scrabble piece and glue a piece of scrapbook paper on the front, then take sanding paper and sand it, after it dries. Take a piece of wire and glue it to the back (use super glue), then curve the wire so it forms a hook and hang on the tree.

Here is today`s idea:
Take one penny and wire (we use telephone wire from a friend who does work on the telephone wires and the wire he gave us is old and can`t be used) and wrap the wire in a X shape around the penny, then take any left over wire and make a hook. Now hang on tree.

Today`s idea:
Take a shell with holes in the top and paint them any color you want, add glitter on top of the paint, then thread a piece of ribbon into the hole and tie. There now you have a lovely beachy looking ornament for your tree.

Christmas Gift Ideas 3#

Today`s idea is for wrapping paper:
Take a Huge peace of blank paper and then find a stamp you like and then get a bunch of different colored stamp pads. Lay out the paper, and use the stamp to decorate the paper in different colors. Later you can use it wrap a present.
