BIG GIRL BEDS

Once all the excitement of Christmas and visitors was over, it was time to move Brooklyn into her big girl bed.

Audrey was excited to get the top bunk.

FAMILY FUN

We had fun visiting the American Girl store together. I guess sitting is Brooklyn's preferred surfing position.

Brooklyn likes playing Frozen music with her recorder and other musical instruments.

NATURE PRESERVE

We had a fun homeschool field trip to the Audubon center.

KON MARI STEP 2:BOOKS!

Now that Christmas is over, we are working on step 2 of the Kon Mari method: books. I have a lot, but we were able to down size a few and put them all back in a more organized fashion.

THE TREE OF LIFE

For FHE the kids made a model of Lehi's vision.

Strange paths

The great and spacious building

The kids also had fun using my visuals from singing time to hold to the rod. When they plucked the fruit from the tree, they each got a marshmallow.

FRIENDS

The girls love playing with the piano teacher's daughter, Lily, during piano lessons.

Brooklyn doesn't warm up to many people, but she really likes Audrey's friend Rachel who is always so sweet and kind to her.  It also helps that she likes to wear Frozen shirts like Brooklyn.

Preschool at our house is always fun. The kids had fun making S shapes out of bendy tubes.

 Brooklyn and Audrey are best friends.

DATE NIGHT HIKE

 We always enjoy seeing hot air balloons on the horizon.

 We also love the nice views of the temple.

YOUNG WOMANHOOD RECOGNITION AWARD
Abby and Maddy both worked really hard and got both their Young Womanhood recognition award and their Honor Bee. We are proud of their hard work and dedication in completing their goals.
