Hannah and Mom help Crystal address and stamp her thank you letters and updates about her trip to Africa.
Crystal doing last minute packing the night before she flew out for her Africa trip.
Carrie and Rose made a luscious homemade butter pecan icecream, which cheered our hearts after Crystal left us!
After getting home from taking Crystal to the airport, we jumped back into the car and rushed to auction where the boys bought three little piglets--something they've been wanting for a long time.
We did not know how to get them home, but since it's just a 20-min. drive, we decided to find some newspapers and cardboard and just put them in the trunk of the car, since the day wasn't too hot.
The piglets hid way back under the back window.
We were glad to put them into their new home.
...where of course the steers were curious about them.
The children sat in a row, watching their dear little piggies.
They named them Peter, James and John.
In June we got together with other home schoolers for some end-of-school games and picnic.
The children wanted to play tug-of-war, so three dads played against six boys.
The dads won--hands down, or should we say, boys down!
Yep, the boys were REALLY down.
That made the girls feel fierce. So they got on to help the boys out.
Yep, the girls made the difference for the boys!
So then the girls and the boys decided to wrestle it out.
Sorry, boys, but you're going to have build more muscle.
I believe once the girls won, and then the boys gritted their teeth--and the girls still won!
Three-legged race
Boy, this is what you call an action shoot!
One from each relay team were supposed to run their balloon down to the goal and pop it, then run back before the next one could run. Pow! Pow!
A cake one of the ladies, Pam, brought. "Great Job, 2013-2014."
