Pioneer day




Last Saturday was Pioneer day for the Lodi stake. We had a really fun time. I made Rebekah her first pioneer outfit. She looked so cute. Her bonnet didn't quite make it though. It got torn as she was getting out of the car. But she looked cute without it anyway! Isaiah loved the horses. Steven and I sang during the program it was a fun day. We watched Legacy at the end of the program. It was good because we've been teaching Rebekah about pioneers and seeing this movie really helped her visualize it. She told Steven that she was grateful that we were'nt pioneers because she didn't want him to die. But she has been singing "pioneer children" a lot lately! She said "They just walked and walked!"

CAMP RICHIE






We had lots of fun at Camp Richie. The kids experienced canoeing, rock climbing (Isaiah chickened out at the last minute but he liked getting the gear on), hiking, and sleeping in a cabin for the first time. The weather was great. It was so pretty up there. They're already begging to go back!

Butterflies



We had a preschool lesson today on butterflies. After the lesson we decided to make watercolor butterflies. The kids really enjoyed that! What a mess! Luckily it's all washable!

Cherries!




A friend of our has a cherry tree and let us come over a pick cherries from her tree. It was fun. Isaiah LOVED them. He was all dyed red! The cherries were soooo yummy! How about a kiss?

Berry picking!





Well this was a super fun day! After running out of gas on the freeway, getting a little turned around, losing a shoe out of a moving car then turning around to hunt for it, driving through chaos through town, arriving at a pumpkin patch ghost town we finally got directed in the right direction and we made it! The pick and patch farm. It really was a fun day. We all picked a ton of very fresh, ripe berries. Our fingers were all red from the juices! It was really neat. And now we have awesome memories!!! :)

Quilt Rush!!!




Okay so I'm WAY behind in posting this since Quilt Rush was in the middle of April! We had sooooo much fun hitting all the stores. It really is one of my most favorite traditions now! My mom and I always go and just have fun visiting and drooling over fabric and beautiful quilts. Okay, so technically Olivia wasn't on quilt rush...she was at beverly's but she was soooo cute and someday I WILL make her...someday.
