I'm sorry it has taken so long for a new post! We have been very busy. I will give you a brief overview of last week, and this week!
Last week, we were busy with school, and helping the younger children with school projects. On Wednesday, Mom and Dani drove my grandma up to a doctor's appointment, Dad, Emily and Leah stayed home, and Greg and I drove up to town with the twins, and they got to record a chorus on one of our songs on our CD! They really enjoyed that, and sang well! That evening, we went to a small church in Rosalia, where we were meeting some homeschooling families that live in the area. Sadly, there were only 4 other families that came! But it was fun, and we enjoyed getting to know new families!
Thursday night was poem recitation night! :) That was... fun! :) We all got more nervous when we heard that Mom was going to record it! :) But, it went well.
Friday, we finished our CD! Ah... it really is relieving to know that that is finished! Then, we went to the Valley Home Scholar's Homeschool Conference in Spokane, and played background music for that for about an hour and a half.
Saturday, I made bread, and Greg took pictures for our CD cover. Sunday, we ALL went to church, for the first time since we've been home! It was wonderful to all be back to church together! We were invited to lunch at the S. family's house, so we met up there around 3:00. Their family recently moved to a house that is just 10 minutes away from us, so it has been a blessing to be able to visit with them more! We had a wonderful afternoon-- we had lunch, then went to the park, and everyone enjoyed sliding, swinging, etc. Even the adults! :) We spent the evening there as well, watching "The Truth Project" by Focus on the Family. It was a fun day!
Yesterday, Mom took Grandma to a doctor's appointment. Please keep her in your prayers! She is really not doing very well, and is losing a lot of weight quickly. It has been a difficult time. Today, Mom took Greg to take a test in Moscow, and Emily and Leah went along as well, so Dani and I are watching Hannah, Samuel and Rebekah!
Well, I hope that didn't bore you all! :) I just feel badly that we have not updated you in so long. We will try to keep up better! And we will try to add more pictures soon!
May the Lord be with each of you!

Hi Bekah!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that you can access our blog again too! I missed you! :)
Our CD hasn't made it down to the people that make copies of it, because we're sending it down with our teacher's CD, and they haven't finished it yet. :) We'll let you know when it's finished! :) Love you too! Oh, and did you get my letter?
Thanks so much, Naomi! :) Thank you also for your prayers for my Grandma. She's not doing much better right now, so please keep praying for her!
Hope to see you this spring! Do you know if you're coming up yet or not?
