What we've been up to...

Pig ears!
Really?! I didn't know people eat these! We saw them at the commissary a few weeks ago and decided we should try them. I wasn't sure how to prepare them, so of course, I googled it and found a way, just joking! We did not put them in our cart!

A typical school day...
The kids have "responsibilities." I'm amazed at what they can do and how well they can take care of things. They are rewarded with an allowance, which is exciting to them. The older two are learning a lot about money and how to handle it. Right now they are in save mode! It's been challenging to keep up with it, teach them about giving, spending and saving, but I know it's one of my jobs :) So, folding towels is one of the things they are responsible for; the other day while they were working on school work, the little J decided he would do it for them! I love his technique and he was sooo proud of himself for doing this for his siblings!
Jamison has recently taken a liking to drawing. A week or so ago, I walked by his room and saw that he was sitting up in his bed (he was supposed to be going to sleep and it was dark in there, except for the light from the 3 nightlights). I walked over to him and asked what he was doing, he responded with, "drawing a picture, it's an angel, it's you!" I sure do love that little one!
Jordan is having a blast at his archery class. We participate through the home school co-op; there are so many things to participate in and this one is a hit for Jordy!
Me and my boys!
Can you say COOL? O-my-soul! I could eat him up! Love that he loves to wear a tie and look all sporty for church!
