Happy Easter!

Here are some pictures from Easter Day. . .

I found my basket!

Where’s mine?

Woohoo

Thanks!

Happy Easter!

Cheese!

Hooray, it’s Easter!

Here we are

The Cousins (missed you Garriss’s)

TJ’s parents and brother

All the kids

On the hunt

Finding those eggs

There are goodies in my egg!

I messed up my flash, but this is the result of Easter fun all day.  Adley woke her up before I could snap another.

Update Variety

I just had a few random pics to post. . .

I think it is fun that Jaylyn is getting in to reading chapter books

Here is a picture of the guys TJ travelled with to China

Daddy and his girl! (well, one of ‘em)

Grrrrrrrrrr!

First time wearing french braids     (she calls them friendship braids)

Olympics

Here are a few pictures I took of the girls having their own “olympics” after doing some Ancient Greece studies.  (Don’t let these pictures fool you.  We are not always fun and games.  :-)  I’m certainly not going to post the pictures of the grumpy math lesson and the erasing and re-doing of the handwriting assignments.  Hee hee!)

 Our opening ceremony included a parade of their olympic flags.

Straw relay

Leighton wanted to get in on the action.  She was disqualified for improper technique.

What is an olympic event without a “balloon between the legs” relay?  :-)  

Medal Ceremony.  They received their paper medals and they even got up on the “platform”.  We played the national anthem on Youtube.  Once again, Leighton could not be left out.

It was a good time. . . . if only all of homeschool was this enjoyable.  :-) 

Did you Know?

We have a trench in our front yard again. . .

Leighton has a fever again. . .

But, we had some peanut butter cookies. . .

And the girls and I have giggled a lot . . .

And the sun is shining. . .

And God is good no matter what.

Have a great weekend.

Baby Elmo and Elmo lover watching. . . ELMO!

(To those grandparent types curious about the fever: her ears are fine this time.  It is another one of those virus things that have her throat all sore and nasty.  Poor girl.  This is at least the third throat virus since December plus the ear infections.  We may need to attempt to wean her from her thumb???)
