Yellow and Grey

 Sydney and her friend both got yellow ribbons on Saturday for 4th place at science fair.  Not quite the best of show and runner up they earned last year, but they moved up from middle school to high school and have to pay some dues.  Sydney is excited to improve her project for next year and got some great advice from judges to make her dye-sensitized solar cell work better. 
 Ryan's room no longer has super heroes and Pokemon on the walls.  I mixed up my own grey paint from the extras that Sydney used for her antibacterial paint project in 7th grade. 
Ironically, the shade worked out to be almost identical to one of the paint chips we were considering for the new house.  I think it is too blue for that, but for Ryan's room I think it is perfect.  It all looks kind of sparse now that the walls are so empty.  I might get a throw rug to add some interest.  We are getting close to the end of the list of things we wanted to finish before we put our house on the market.  Any day now!

It is fine to be at the 4th place and obviously better than the last position so don't give up and keep up the hard work. You will definitely earn the first place for the next year science fair, best of luck. Moreover, visit 7dollaressay review if you need any kind of academic help.

Congrats on the 4th place. She definitely has a thing for science! Glad she has ideas for next year improvements already. It's a great experience.

The grey walls are great. It is funny how they almost match the other room. Way to use those paint "scraps".

just to place is good going from middle school to high school! The gray paint looks really good.

I love the gray walls, very calming. 4th place is fabulous! There were probably many others that got no ribbons and probably further up the food chain of high school too! Great job, girls!

Congratulations to both girls!

Congrats on the 4th place ribbons. Senior level science fair can be tough competition. I judged biology this year, there were some interesting projects.
