Our school finished their annual Boosterthon fundraising event this week and with so many people making pledges, we are happy to report that our school hit its goal! The kids all participated in the Fun Run today, and completed all their laps…and then some; Braelyn alone completed 53 laps! Thank you to those who participated with us this year and pledged their support. We appreciate it so much!
Here was our week:
The grandparents came up to spend the weekend with us!
Lala and Tangie attended the Women At The Well meeting at the church on Sunday.
Meanwhile, we tackled our chore list, including
putting the clean dishes away, and
working on our piano lessons.
I may or may not have even snuck in a little nap!
Went shopping Sunday afternoon and stocked up on some coffee!
Girls doing what girls do best!
Sunday supper out.
Stealing a kiss, great reaction from the kids.
We put together a nice gift basket for their teacher's birthday over the weekend!
Maddy working on her hula.
Reading a book every night for their homework.
And then afterwards play ninja!
Wednesday was Crazy Sock Day for Braelyn's class.
Not too conspicuous!

Great job Buddy!

She had done the kids course numerous times and really wanted to do the big course, but we didn't have the time or desire to spend $55 per person!
Meanwhile, Mommy took the twins out to brunch!
Met up with our friends from North Carolina one last time on Sunday afternoon, to see Pete's Dragon.
They enjoyed the 3-D movie (which I didn't realize until I paid) which made it more fun and twice as expensive!!
Saying their goodbyes.
The girls didn't want to let Maddy go!
Returning our library books.
