Open House

So, we've been busy lately....

-We sold our home after only three weeks on the market and we feel so blessed! We are moving on the 5th of next month and currently wondering what it will take to pack up this place...its good work though, just lots of it!

-Homeschooling four kiddos has been a tremendous blessing to me as a mom and to our family as a whole. There are days when I am exhausted (shocker?) but our days are purposeful and are simply just full...my heart is near bursting when I think of the time we have each day to read, explore God's word, study language and art and just be together. Its pretty great.

-The older girls are involved in a children's Bible study one night a week and are ablsolutely loving it! I am so encouraged to see them searching out and applying God's word with their friends. Halle is currently growing her hair out with some other gals in this group so they can donate to Locks of Love. She is so excited to comfort hurting kids this way, its precious to me.

-The older girls are also in full swing at dance class, Halle is studying classical ballet will be in the Nutcracker as an angel in December and Maia is studying ballet and tap in a combo class and working on several skills to prepare for The Little Mermaid next Spring. Can you even imagine how cute they are in leotards with buns in their hair...pictures to follow after class this week, I promise!

-Jones is no longer a regular boy: he is SUPERMAN! Gramma Shelly found some Superman pjs for him at Costco and I can not get them off my little guy. They are complete with a cape and as I write this he is "flying" complete with arms flapping around the living room.

-Lael is talking like wild...giggling and gurgling and screeching with delight at any solid food she encounters and at her toys, her siblings and her parents. She is such a joy to everyone of us...we are enjoying her even more each day as her personality as it develops.

So..what are YOU up to?
