Lent

This Lent I got a great idea from looking at a friend's blog. She did this with her kids and it sounded perfect for my girls, especially Haley! I set it up, and then had Haley sit with me (and kind-of Kyleigh too) to fill in the blanks!

Each day of Lent the girls have a new goal or sacrifice for the day. Here's how it broke down:

Mondays-No juice, Tuesdays-Each gave a up a favorite TV show, Wednesdays-Make a cards for someone, Thursdays-No complaining when going to bed (I especially loved this one, and it went really well tonight), Fridays-Give money to the poor, and Saturdays-Say a decade of the rosary.

Haley was very excited about it tonight...we'll see if it continues!! I hope so!

And the fun begins...he's crawling!

Apparently it wasn't the book he was expecting! :)

International Day

The girls were cowgirls for International day and the dragon parade!

The international dances!! I was on the opposite side from the girls so they're a little hard to see!

The Last Few Weeks of Phone Pics

She's getting so big!

Me too Mom!



Magnet words! Great quiet time project!



Each part of speech is a different color ( for the most part)






Haley made their lunches for school one afternoon...then they sat down, said prayers, and ate them for dinner!



Kyleigh's Valentine for one of her teachers...I only had to help her with 2 letters!











An art project we made for the walls in their room!











These were Christmas gifts that the girls use to display art work from home or school!







Playing the My Little Pony game...Paul didn't want to be a pony, so he found a ninja!

Magic!

A Day in the City

We had a great time up in San Francisco over Christmas break! We joined a few of the teachers from school and went to The Academy of Sciences, rode the cable cars, and went to the wharf! We left early in the morning and got home late that evening, but everyone had so much fun (thanks to all the help we had with the kids for the day...thanks Marija, Cathy, Veronica, and Lupita)!!
