Smile!

Great Homeschool idea from Pinterest

-thanks Sis!

We have been learning how to take care of our teeth in Science and Health-this was the perfect edible craft to go with it-we just had to brush our teeth afterwards : )

 

 

 

 

 

All you need-

Kids

Apple slices

Peanut butter

Mini marshmallows

Smiles!

GraceyAnna

During Family Devotions- she added her 2 cents worth : )

 At 4 1/2 months she is wanting to crawl.

She has made a friend!  Jachin LOVES his baby sister and is ever so thoughtful and caring.

 She already knows what food she likes : )

 She's never at a loss for words......

Ready to walk.

She knows the best places to sleep.

Happy Birthday Vaughn!

                                                                                    

Complete art set from Uncle Frank and Aunt Shell.

He LOVED the chalk best, he made a road the entire length of the back sidewalk with it.

How the years fly by!  Our first son is 7!

(This is a belated Birthday posting, this mommy is playing catch up)

 Vaughn William Roberts

Great lover of trucks and anything with wheels.

The chocolate cake was made by his beloved Aunt Shell. (above)

(She dug the cars out of the toy box and washed them too)

 Daddy and Vaughn- who wouldn't love a face like that?

 The best eater in the family, many times out eating mommy.

Dinner consitsted of hamburgers, brocolli, french fries and banana bread.

 He had to wait to open this gift all day, it just sat their taunting him "Open me little boy"

This gift was good enough for ALL the boys.

Vaughn is always told he get's a great birthday because he usually shares his birthday with family because of it being so near Thanksgiving.  I was in labor with him on Thanksgiving day and had him by 1:40am on the Friday after Thanksgiving. This year he had the following people at his party:

Ussins (Mommy, Daddy and all siblings)

Aunt Shell and Uncle Frank

Grandpa Lund and Uncle Christpoher (who is only 4)

Uncle Mike

Funny Friday

When you have 6 children-or a family- money doesn't stay around.  Like one old fashioned preacher once said "If we had some extra money....it didn't last long, we had too many holes to sink it into".

Have a great Friday!

Fresh Faith

I have been reading the book Fresh Faith by Jim Cymballa, if you want/need something to stir you and increase your faith- this is the book!

Hence my thought for this week-

Exercise Faith

Don't

Excuse Unbelief 

To DO

This years to do List-LLLLLLL

Love on the kids more

Love on the man more

Love on the house more-clean, clean and more clean

Listen more- but not to myself unless it's positive

Look on the bright side-not the wrong side

Leave the past behind-again and again

Let go of what DOES'NT matter

Look up-to the Father

Live each minute, each second to the fullest.  Squeeze out every drop of happiness and gratefulness.


I want to Lean on the Lord, Labor, Learn, be a Light, Lead,  put myself Last, Laugh, Launch out, be Level Headed, have Liberty, be a Life Saver, Load Lifter, Likeable,  Liveable, Lyrical.  I want my life to have Luster!

I don't want to:
 be Lazy, to be Lanate ( having a wooly or hairy appearence) be a Leach, Lecture, Lie, be a bump on a  Log, have a Long face, be Longish (somewhat long)  ( I also encourage Jonathan to not preach longish), Loony, Loopy, a Loser, a Lout (a clumsy stupid fellow) Leave anyone in a Lurch, or be like a Lytta ( a worm under a dogs tongue thought to cause rabies leading to madness) haha
HAVE A GREAT YEAR!

Hi, I'm Barbie

 Hi! My name's Barbie- at least that's what the box said last year. Don't you just love my smile?

Karagen may have renamed me.

I am being re-gifted this year with a home made out fit.

Karagen is getting a matching skirt to go with my outfit.

Shhhhh, she has no idea.

Did you know tiny Barbie clothes are irritating a challenge to make? By the way, the outfit is the gift, I just left it on her so Karagen will know how to dress her.

It's called a Frugal Christmas, time and effort and a lot of LOVE!

What are you doing to save $$$ this year?
