New Fall Backdrop

My friend LaChelle and I painted a new backdrop today and we tried it out on the kids. This puts me in the mood for fall!

Lil' Dogger

This is Lil' Dogger, Mrs. Stull's class pet. Every week someone is assigned to take Lil' Dogger home and take care of her. She comes with her own carrier, journal, and library books. Katelyn was responsible for Lil' Dogger this week. She took her to dance and AWANA and she brushed her and read to her every night. Her journaling about her days with Lil' Dogger was wonderful! She really enjoyed the repsonsibility of having a "pet". She wants a hamster and we are making her save her own money to buy all the supplies and the hamster herself, so maybe having Lil' Dogger here for the week was a good thing.

Red & White Day

Tonight is Homecoming at Dewey, so today was red and white day at school. Katelyn and Carson were both ready to wear their colors to support their school. Just a side note - it's not crimson and cream; we still bleed orange around here! Carson got a new haircut yesterday, and we really like it. He likes the way the back of his head feels.

Our Little Cubbie

Ainsley started AWANA this year, and it's official she's a Cubbie! She memorized her first 4 verses and she earned her Cubbie vest, book and bag. She was so excited about it! It's hard to believe that our little girl is old enough to memorize Bible verses. I think she is the youngest one in the group, and she was only one of a few to earn her vest already!
