Lost a front tooth



Two days later--the other tooth!

The boys had fun with squirt guns outside in the backyard.  I think I was the most wet...

CER 2019

 

We are so thankful that we were able to go to the Central European Retreat this year in the Czech Repbulic!  We had a wonderful time seeing old friends, getting to know new friends and enjoying nature. The boys loved paddling the boats with Papi, playing in the sandboxes and running around. It was great to see Elliot being independent with some other boys his age. I didn't teach any of the children's classes--there was a group of students from Harding that did a fantastic job! The boys are still singing the songs they learned for the talent show.  I would love to post the videos, but there are other children in the videos....

It was a great weekend!

 

 

 

Elliot singing his favorite song. :)

 

Planting, Strawberries and Cookies

We've been doing a few different things lately. I decided to try seeds this year for the balcony! The boys had a ton of fun planting the seeds.

 

Couldn't resist little sleeping feet

Nolan has learned to cross his arms when he pouts.

We went and picked strawberries at the fields not far from here! The boys loved it!

 

 

 

 

We baked some cookies for the Central European Retreat. It was so hot, but the boys enjoyed it!

 

USA Trip Part 3

After two weeks in Texas, we headed to Florida to see more family!!

They picked lemons off the tree!

Magnolia--one of my favorite blossoms

The boys loved playing with Stef!

 

And so was the end of our wonderful trip!!!
