Graduation

Before we went to California we had our last day of puppy training.

Moriah and Kayley, trying to get Patches and Glorian to "stay".

Jacob enjoying another dog (that was very well behaved and trained).

Tammy's Family Group Photo

This is Tammy's side of the family. It was quite the task (as all of you with several adult siblings know) to get all these busy families in the same place at the same time - let alone to get all the kids to smile on a TIMER! We did it though...well almost.

It was so fun to be down in Cali with all of them last week! We already miss them. I'm sure next year we will NOT all fit around that couch!

REFLECTIONS

THE REFLECTIONS ASSEMBLY WAS THIS AFTERNOON. BOTH MORIAH AND KAYLEY WORKED ON TWO PROJECTS. MORIAH RECEIVED A RIBBON FOR HER MONKEY SCULPTURE AND KAYLEY RECEIVED RIBBONS FOR BOTH OF HER PROJECTS. ALL THOSE THAT PARTICIPATED GOT A DOUGHNUT AFTER THE ASSEMBLY!

Cute Little Jacob

Here are a couple of things Jacob likes to say.

Our Thanksgiving Turkey

For FHE we decorated our TURKEY with the things we are thankful for! EVERYONE was thankful for our FAMILY. The kids came up with some other FUN stuff they are thankful for. I love this exciting season!!!

Learning to read...

Kayley has been doing really well with her sight words and 3 letter sound-out words. She is starting to read more books now and her reading vocab is expanding. I am fairly sure that she is still on the 'guess what the words are by looking at the pictures' stage when she said this:
"I showed my brown balloons to the... Daddy, what starts with 'A' and looks like a monkey?"
I just started laughing!
P.S. The answer was APE!
