Art Camp

The boys have gone to a wonderful art camp for the last few years.  Faith has waited to go for the last 3 years.  Finally, she got to go.  She had so much fun.

Keepin it Cool By The Pool

So much fun in the sun.  Faith no longer needed her floaty bathing suit this year, but she wanted to wear it just one more time.

Lizards & Tea

While the boys were working with Daddy, Faith & I went to our favorite little "tea house".  Faith is such a wonderful mix of girly~girly & tomboy.  I love it.  While we were having tea & talking about "princess" things,


We saw one of her favorite things.....

a lizard.  
He was right outside our window.  I could kick myself for not getting a picture of the lizard when he was sitting on the window sill  right beside us.  Every time Faith would move, the lizard would follow her with his head.  Funny, silly times that I love.

Pure Beauty

 The kids went to art camp yesterday.  I just love the lady's house where it is held.  She has some really beautiful plants & flowers. 


I love looking at the beauty, but have no desire to do the work that it takes to keep it up.  I am very thankful to the people that do, so I can enjoy the beauty.

My favorite ~ Daisies.

Homeschool Summer Parties

Our support group got together at a park just to hang out.


The moms had such a great time fellowshiping, getting to know each other, exchanging tips & encouraging words.


The kids were patiently waiting for the water spray to come on.  Finally after waiting on the nice man from the county to fix it, they cheered him on & hopped in.


Faith looks sad, but she was just looking down while walking.

Our homeschool co-op got together at one of the families neighborhood pool.


Audrey, Mabry, Will, Collin, Cayman, Cheyenne with Cayli in the back.
So much fun.


Jacob, Faith & Whit


Cayli & Addie

The moms = Rhonda, Karen, Laura, Carla & Tracy & Hannah in the towel (not a mom).  We had about 1/2 of the families missing because they were at camps or VBS.  We do enjoy getting together with these families.

Piano Recital

This is Will's 4th year of playing the piano.  He has done such a great job.  He enjoys practicing & performing.


Will played 2 songs.  Fur Elise by  Beethoven & Borree' (which is a Spanish Dance) by Alfred

We were so proud of him.  He did such a great job ~ as well as did the other 10 students.
