Summing it all up in one post

Back by popular demand. Well, by my sister Theresa anyways. haha. Here is an up-to-date recap of what has been going on lately.



We celebrated Teddy's birthday. Something we have done since Samantha was a small child and she still enjoys it.
Lydia relaxes...
...while Nathan works hard.
We dug a pond.
Maddie practiced riding with no hands. She gets this from her foolish father who rides his motorcycle the exact same way.
Samantha made cookies...
...more fun cookies.
William had a birthday.
Lydia performed with the Kids Choir.
Mother's Day.
Rachael's second mother's day.
Carla turned 16! Look out for a new driver on the roads.
Samantha before graduation.
Samantha graduated with honors. Way to go sweetie!
Graduation.
Samantha's graduation class. We had over 40 graduates attend the ceremony. Which is only one half of the class. There were nearly 100 seniors this year. My, how homeschooling has grown!
It was a beautiful ceremony.
Samantha and Mrs. Simmons. The best science teacher ever!
Jennifer, Dakota, and Hunter stayed and fellowshiped with us after the ceremony. Thank you to everyone who attended the service. It really meant a lot to us!
And,I had lunch with one of my closest friends. She left for Africa two days ago. I can't wait to hear about all the wonderful things that are taking place over there.

There you go! I will try to do better. But, I have to mention...someone hasn't updated theirs since Mother's Day. Just saying....lol
