School and Snow!!

The letter "L" was this past week...they were very creative in coloring their llamas!

We got enough snow to build the snowman Madilynn had been talking about constantly! 

Daddy took Madilynn & Elizabeth out and they got to work...

They actually had enough snow to build two!!

It's a boy and a girl!

Eva wearing this precious little sweater jacket I just love...all of the girls have worn it now!  And, it's funny how much they look alike with it on!

A November Weekend...

 

 This past Friday morning the girls had reading time by the fire after breakfast!  I loved this...they did it on their own while I was cleaning up the kitchen.  I just caught them and got some on video!!

Then we did some fun science stuff...color mixing!

They created lots of beautiful colors!

Madilynn with her science notebook...her drawings (observations) of what we were doing and what was happening!

Then we headed outside in the backyard to get the leaves up.  The girls got the rakes and got right to work!  Great helpers they were!!

Eva enjoyed playing around the whole yard while we raked and got the leaves bagged up...

Madilynn enjoyed making lots of piles and then counting them up...

She was hard at work and kept up with it the hour we were out!  Then Daddy brought us some lunch!

Then Saturday...Razorback Day!

Madilynn says...bye for now!

October wrap-up...

So...about three weeks ago...It was Monday afternoon (Oct.22nd). Madilynn was at her piano class.  Eva, Elizabeth and I were hanging out getting supper started and watching it RAIN! (It doesn't rain that often here!)

Then, our fun to dance to song came on the radio (Toby Mac "Me without you") and Eva got to dancin'...

She loves to dance in the car too, by the way!  She'll be dancing to whatever song is on k-love before we even get out of the driveway it's sooo sweet!

Early Tuesday morning...our first snow of the season...

It came a dusting of snow every morning that week, and then would melt by mid-day.

Daddy was away the last two weekends in October.  The first a guys hunting trip in the mountains, while us girls did some shopping!  Then the second weekend was for work.  Anyways, us girls had lots of fun around the house, oh and we got sick...all of us!  It started with Madilynn and pneumonia, then I got it, then colds, now Elizabeth with a double ear infection and so far I think Eva has just had a cold and is getting lots of teeth in including those 1 yr. molars! ouch!  We've still managed to have lots of fun...

Eva loving on her monkey that stays in her bed.  When she's tired or doesn't feel good I've caught her getting it out of her crib and carrying it around - so sweet!

lots of pretty teeth...

On Sunday after church Elizabeth with her paper she colored!

So much fun playtime came after having these boxes out for a couple of days...
