Week ending 10-23-16

In our scrapbook we have pictures of almost every child grabbing the popcorn bowl around 8 months. So when we were having popcorn the kids yelled, "You have to get the traditional popcorn picture!" Anderson is 13 months, but here is his picture. 

Monday: breakfast with the family. One thing I've always loved about homeschooling is consistently having breakfast together every single morning. I look at all these precious children and think how much I love them, am grateful for them, and what a great day we're going to have. 
Friday morning: Hanging out on the couch in similar faded dinosaur sleepers. I have no idea where they came from. We've never had 2 boys in a row before so I didn't know we had similar jammies in consecutive sizes. I don't even really like the sleepers, but I thought it was cute that they matched. 
Saturday: Gymnastic finals competition for these 5 gymnasts. We videoed the whole thing so we only got a few pictures. Alexis put the whole thing together, picking out their outfits and having them compete on vault (couch cushions--see 8-21-16), monkey bars, and floor (tramp.) 
Makenna on bars. 

Sunday: After the primary presentation the 5 children came home and put on their own program with their babies as the primary children. Alexis has been writing their parts for a month. She takes her play primary very seriously. Sunday isn't complete without playing primary. Here Kaitlyn's baby is saying her part at the podium. 



Alexis leading the songs. 
Samuel plays primary too, but these 4 are the ones who were in the real program today. (Even though Samuel ran up on the stand during Kaitlyn's part and wouldn't come down for awhile.)


Here is a video of Kaitlyn singing the first verse of "Jesus Once Was A Little Child." I tried putting the video of both of them singing on here, but the file was too big. I might have gotten it to post on facebook, though. They sang this today in the real primary presentation.
