Around the House

Nephi requested this picture because he was ready for church before everyone else. 

Everyone wants their picture with the baby!

 This is what happens when Clairana and Nephi take Cecily upstairs for a photo shoot. 

This was them attempting to do their service of emptying out the dryer.....
"Look how funny we are in dad's pants!"

Baby Goats & Piglets!

These are two little loves that passed away.
So Sweet and So Sad for all of us. 

I may be falling in love with the idea of being a pig farmer.

We were blessed to have several family members come to the End of Year Celebration. 

I spent half the evening hanging out with Cecily and Bella in the hall but honestly I had heard all the presentations so I was happy to let Levi sit in and listen. 

With all the thank you it was rather long but it was nice to hear what all the kids had worked on all year. 

Our End of Year Celebration! 

Part of the Timeline Song that the kids performed.
Do you know all these events?

Book Club - James Herriot

Book Club Book! This month we went over to the Goodsell's house which was perfect because our book was all about a veterinarian and his short stories about farm visits. 

Visiting their farm is always fun because they have SO many more babies than we do!

Bee Keeping!

We signed Clairana and Nephi up for a couple projects for 4H this year and beekeeping is one of them! Levi also works with a man who is very skilled in bees which made our decision easier and he has been very helpful!

Of course when they needed to be picked up Levi had meetings he couldn't miss out on so I loaded up the kids and picked up 12,000 bees by myself over an hour away....we survived and I only got stung twice. 

Levi and Chris putting them in the hives! 

Levi ended up getting stung a few times when moving them into the hive. He must be a little allergic.....
