Back to School & Silliness

 

Jonathan got some body chalk from our neighbor to make his hair black for a character presentation, for a book report he did at school this term. He is Theo from The Curse of Shadowman by Ted Dekker.


And here we have another dressup day at school, color day!


Hmmm... for some reason the boys decided it would be fun to have mustaches. :)




Even the cat relaxed during break with his new toy mouse.


Hair cut time for me too! Thank you to Jacob!




Drum roll please..... Naomi lost her first tooth ever!!

Excited to make something for someone special

School Break

 



This school break we played more games together!

And we went to the pool 2 times, the kids LOVED that!






I also cut everyone's hair!

And the kids did a little bit of school work each morning too.

Jonathan gained a desk. A friend made this desk for me 20 years ago at Interface. I lost it for awhile but then I suddenly found it in storage! So fun that Jonathan can use it now!

The boys played video games and introduced our neighbor Jackson to video games.

The girls made butterfly picture holders.





And we got a snack package that was supposed to be a "vitamin" package from our brother/uncle Nate! I ordered vitamins but it seemed that the healthy snacks took over the box!


Fun with juice and glasses!

Some missionaries weren't returning so they sold their things... Naomi bought their doll house with the money she had saved up for her birthday.

When she turned 4 years old, her Poppie gave her lots of dolls and furniture and now she has a house too!

The kids discovered a new tree over by the storage area where I was helping to sort that same missionaries belongings.



Lego fun!



By the end of our school break Nate's package of snacks had mostly disappeared so I was back to making banana blueberry bread again!

School Activities...

 

Wearing her cousin's Vietnam baggy pants to school! :)



In Naomi's kindergarten class each week there is show and tell on Fridays. They have to bring something to show that begins with the letter they are learning about for that week. This was V week so Naomi brought her dad the violinist who made his own violin. And he played a jig and they all danced!

Making Valentine heart cakes for Valentine's Day! Yum!

Skate afternoon in the gym! Yeah!!





Jonathan's 4th and 5th grade class all did so well with Reading Festival!


Reading Festival!! Each ice cream scoop stands for 1 hour of reading during the 2 weeks! :)

Performing the book Gingerbread man!
