Young Women - Service

 Young Women Service Project - Moving Watermelons and Potatoes from a Purdue Farm. 

Somehow Jody and I got the potatoes....

some were rough and I swear my fingers smelled like rotten potatoes for days.

Shirts - BE

 Levi thought of this idea for a charity softball game he was in. My shirt says "Base Bid" and all the kids have shirts that say "Change Order" with their birth order. 

Maybe our Christmas card look this year......

Coraline is 10!

Coraline is TEN! Can you believe it? 

She decided for her day -

To the one and only that flipped our life upside down and made us switch gears.  

Cheers to being at home for TEN years. What a blessing. 

 Grandpa Ashby found her most requested item - newest bracelet making kit. Clairana has had one that is very similar for years.

 Trip to Hobby Lobby - she picked out fake flowers for her new flower boxes to go on the 'cat barn' aka our shed.

 New outfit and boots from grandparents. Bows were from Clairana

 Levi and I got her tickets to see Lindsey Stirling in November.

 New Gabb Watch! 

 Fancy puzzle from the Ashby family!

Clairana - boating

The Hayman and Clayton family took girls from church out to a day on the water. Clairana enjoyed tubing and racing on the jet skis. Everyone was impressed with how well she can stay on a tube - that's what you get for being a kid that goes boating more often than most or maybe a dad that tries to throw you off....

Clairana with Maddie

 Tubing!

Jet Ski Time!

 

Nephi Camp

I didn't get any pictures from Nephi's camp this summer but I did see these on the bulletin board in the hallway this week at church so I snapped a few pictures. 

He had such a great time with all the Young Men and their leaders.

Corn Service

For our weekly Young Women's activity we picked corn for our local food bank. 

We picked over 1600 lbs of sweet corn!

 We invited a Muslim youth group to join us as well. 

 

Back to it! Co-op

We are back at the school routine! We are blessed to be going back to co-op!

 The girls made candles for art this week which tied into the Victorian Era.
