Here's what happening at the O'Duggan's:
It's MAPLE SYRUP season!

Here are a few pics from last week's fun on Friday:
We had a play presented by WSU students...
THE CAT IN THE HAT!
We also had some winners for fitness fever!
And the slime and ooblek was a messy hit!
Both were science lessons.
Ooblek showed us the different forms of matter, liquid and solid or BOTH!
The slime was a chemical reaction.
Two compounds combining to make a new polymer! (a chain of molecules)
COOL BEANS!
