Pre-School Graduate

 Lincoln during the performance

 Receiving his award and diploma

The proud family

Lincoln has gone to this preschool for 2 years.  We love it.  They really do have a wonderful program.  All the workers are volunteers and we just pay for the supplies, which is amazing they are willing to do it.  It is through a local church and we love the little songs they teach Lincoln.  

Girl Fun

 We decided to paint our all of our nails since church starts later for us now and we have time to get ready.

Poor Lincoln was the odd man out and wanted to take a picture of his feet too.  He needs a brother...but not any time soon.

Best FHE Ever

 We got fire ladders and had a FHE where we practiced them...we might be in trouble if there was a real fire, but the kids had fun.

 Lily was a good sport and just hung out.

To top it all off the kids got banana splits.  Hannah isn't in the picture because she never gets desert because she never finishes her dinner.  She's been thinning out a bit.

Visitors

 Hannah talking to the horse...they respond better to eye contact:)

 This was the most playful horse.  He kept tapping his foot and nodding to get the kids' attention.

Joe's parents went on a cross country trip visiting all their kids and grandkids after their recent release from their mission in Guatemala.  We failed to get a picture with them, but while they were here we visited the horses at Keeneland.  We're so glad they came to visit.  It was a lot of fun.

*Side note-We just talked to our friend who went to a horse psychology class and found out that meant the horse was scared.  I misread that one:)

Funny Face

You might not be able to tell, but this is Hannah's funny face.  Whenever you ask her to make her funny face, this is it.  It looks a lot like her ticked off face.  The funniest part of this face is all the kids think it's hilarious.

Princesses on Ice

All the ladies in our family got dressed up for Disney Princesses on Ice.  You might not be able to tell I got dressed up but my hair isn't in a pony tail so that's big. 

 Rachel was happy a lot of her friends were there.

The girls really enjoyed it.  I was worried about Lily but she did really well.  Lincoln and Joe had a man night and went to get ice cream.

No front teeth

Rachel finally lost her other front tooth!  This tooth had been knocked a lot and was dead and recessing so we are glad it's finally out.  After Rachel's first traumatic tooth pulling experience she's decided just to wiggle them until they practically drop out of her mouth.

Conference Weekend

We enjoyed conference weekend.  I printed out some conference packets for the kids.  Their favorite was the conference crowns.

 I thought this picture was funny of Hannah. 

 Lily was obviously disturbed that she didn't get a crown...Maybe next year.
